Because all our customers are important to us, our professional staff is dedicated to making your experience a pleasant one. That is why we always go the extra mile to make your floral gift perfect. Let Strelitzia Flower Company be your first choice for flowers.HISTORY:
Strelitzia Flower Company began as a simple “bucket stand” in 1971. To pay his education at UCD and support his new family, Dean Labadie took a friends advice and began selling flowers to students on campus. At the time Dean was also driving around in a truck selling produce to locals between classes along with running a landscape maintenance business.
Building a business from the ground up in Davis would require an enormous amount of dedication and flexibility. Dean felt he knew his community and wanted to make sure their need were met. Fresh flowers with a wide selection were always his focus. At the time a typical flower shop would be very rigid in their format.
Dean’s concept was to give customers access to the product, much like florists in Europe. Full buckets of the best product available, displayed in an open style market with every variety and color of flower being sold to the customer one stem at a time. Today you can still go into the location and browse through the oversized refrigerator collecting just the right amount of flowers. Dean continues to understand the customers’ needs to have input into what please them.
After 22 years of buying flowers from the San Francisco Flower Market, Dean and his wife Janice took a leap. They stopped the 2am three night a week trips to the city and hit the road to the coast. It was the farms they wanted access to. They knew the product would be fresher- sometimes even waiting for the truck to drive up the field with their fresh cut product. The improved quality and longevity of the product they discovered was striking. They have been doing their once a week, overnight coast run since 1993 and pride themselves in passing the savings on to the customers.
As a part of our move from Downtown Davis in 2006, Strelitzia has merged our different divisions (retail, wholesale and growing) under one roof to offer better pricing and availability to our customers. We have now expanded our “bunch pricing” to include “Strelitzia Wholesale” pricing which offers a discounted price when you buy flower by the bunch. This change makes our prices very competitive with big box and super market stores. We do offer great variety, the freshest flowers, great service and we deliver. Find out more about our WHOLESALE…
COMMUNITY AND COMMON SENSE:
Dean and Janice Labadie take to heart a commitment to give back to the community. In all those years of business, it was Strelitzia Flower Company that led the way in putting product where it was needed. From the beginning, complimentary corsages and boutonnieres have been given to residents of convalescent homes in Davis and Woodland. Today, a sophisticated system of tracking donations allow the company to regularly donate back to the community. All those donations are handled with TLC because Dean and Janice truly believe in the benefit a simple floral arrangement can bring to a community event.
Dean and Janice not only dedicate funds for the myriad of need in Yolo County, but they also put their time in where it counts. Dean is an active member in Rotary Club of Davis while Janice is involved in Soroptomist International of Davis. Both have served on boards and committees of various non-profits in Davis and Woodland for many years Both were voted Citizen of the Year (1997). Both have served as catalysts in affecting increased visibility and positive change for local and global societal change. The owners and the company are genuinely defined as true contributors to their community.
