Forever Arrangements from Lilies of the Alley

Stuff We Love
Sept. 28, 2024

Flower season is coming to a close, but before you buy fake, plastic plants to fill your empty vases, head to Lilies of the Alley of Traverse City (227 E State St.). Not only can you find fresh-cut florals and live plants among their offerings, but this flower shop also boasts a huge selection of dried stems and arrangements. Our recommendation is to bring in your vase or vessel and have a general color scheme in mind. Then, ask the knowledgeable staff for their help putting together a collection of dried flowers, grasses, and other natural elements that will rival any living bouquet. (Or browse their pre-made dried arrangements for an even simpler shopping experience.) The muted colors of preserved flowers are perfect for fall and winter decor, and your creation will last for years to come. liliesofthealley.com
