Garriss Flower Shop: flowers for all occasions in Appomattox
A delightful fragrance of fresh roses, carnations, and greenery greet you as you step inside Garriss Flower Shop.
This floral store and the Garriss family have deep roots in Appomattox. Kathie Garriss began the flower in 2012 when she purchased the remnants from another floral business that was closing at that time.
Kathie was already busy running Garriss Upholstery, which was a business her parents originally owned and operated for many years located on Church Street. Kathie knew she would need help creating fresh floral arrangements and she invited her daughter, Stacie Morgan to manage the new floral store. Stacie had previous experience creating arrangements for a floral department of a local grocer, and she agreed to join her mother in the business. For several years, Kathy and Stacie ran Garriss Upholstery & Floral together.
In 2019, Kathie retired and closed the upholstery shop that had been operated by the Garriss family for more than 50 years. Upon Kathie's retirement, the store moved to it’s current location in Triangle Plaza in Appomattox. Today, Garriss Flower Shop is owned and operated today by Stacie!
Celebrating with you
Stacie and her team know Appomattox. They know the people. They know the community.
When you call to purchase a birthday flower basket, or an anniversary bouquet, they celebrate with you. When you call or stop in to order, they’ll ask questions to make your vision come to life. Questions like:
“What is the recipient’s favorite color and favorite flower? Do they prefer a shorter arrangement or a taller one? Do they like an arrangement that goes all the way around or one-sided? Do they prefer a basket or a vase? Live plants or fresh cut flowers?”
Stacie’s goal is to make sure that the recipient for each order will absolutely love the arrangement that was made specifically for them!
Most arrangements made at Garriss are custom orders that can be created and delivered in the same day, (or the next day if you’re needing a specific flower in your arrangement). However, there is always a variety of ready-made arrangements for those stopping in for a quick pickup as well.
The team at Garriss also provides bridal bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, church arrangements and centerpieces for weddings, wedding receptions, anniversary parties, baby showers, and more.
They also provide floral arrangements for Sunday services or special celebrations for churches.
Caring for you during difficult times
Stacie and her team also work hard to create vibrant bouquets of cut flowers or arrangements of live greenery to bring cheer to those suffering from illness or those recovering from an accident or surgery.
The team at Garriss Flower Shop also creates beautiful arrangements of fresh flowers or silk flowers for funerals, as well as sympathy bouquets and baskets that are sent to the homes of those who are grieving the recent loss of a loved one.
Fresh flowers for special occasions and for special people
Garriss Flower Shop provides flowers for a variety of reasons all year long. They provide flowers during joyous occasions and during times when joy is needed. Stacie Morgan makes sure every arrangement that leaves the store is of top-quality. Stacie explains “if it’s not something that I would be proud to receive, then I’m not going to send it to a customer.”
The shop receives fresh flowers from their vendors nearly every day of the week. This ensures that fresh flowers are continually available to make a variety of arrangements for the community for any occasion.
