Lisa and Ron Pritchett opened Lilium Floral Design in 2008 fulfilling a decades-long dream.  Revenue has increased between 20 percent and 30 percent each year and last year the business registered a 35 percent increase in volume over the previous year.  The full-service shop tests every new flower variety or batch from a new supplier to ensure that the longevity will satisfy the customers.  If stems don’t last in the test vases in the shop, then Lisa will repurchase.

This record of success, stunning floral design, and commitment to sales and customer service led to Lilum Floral Designs designation as 2015 Retail Florist of the Year in annual contest co-sponsored by Florists’ Review and the Wholesale Florist & Florist Supplier Association.
