Edmond's Plaza Florist (San Mateo): Edmonds Plaza Florist was established in 1983 and is a family owned and operated High End flower shop. Edmond started as a delivery guy, back in 1980, in what used to be san mateo plaza florist and very quickly fell in love with the flowers and the energy around them. He decided to buy the shop and continue to serve the people of San Mateo, and the peninsula area in whole, but he wanted to be different, special and to go High End! He wanted to be unique and so he started to import orchids, birds of paradise, heliconias (which became our logo) and other tropical flowers directly from the growers in Hawaii. It was in times when tropical flowers were unknown and unfamiliar and even today we are famous for our unique and beautiful tropical selection of cut flowers and arrangements. Today, as much as in the past, Edmond continues with the same vision of being unique, unordinary and supplies only the best quality flowers. Whether it is plants, earopien gardens or fresh cut arrangements, we will always try to be a little different and a little better and always, Always with a smile! Best Regards, Edmond & Elanit Sasounian and all of us here at Edmonds Plaza Florist
