Meet Emily

Emily Harris Mecham here. I was born and raised in the shadows of the Wasatch Mountains, and flowers have captivated me since I was a little girl. Perhaps this is because of my Dutch ancestry, since the Netherlands is the flower capital of the world. Or it could be because of my Scandinavian heritage, since no hygge is complete in my apartment without a touch of floral and plants. When I was in college I was inspired by a lecture I attended by Chris Giftos, the head floral designer at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a floral spark was born. And I have been flowering ever since. My career in blooms has taken me from my roots in Utah, to southern California, and now to New York City.  I’ve had the privilege of designing alongside some of the most talented designers all along the way.
