WELCOME TO OUR BLOG!!
This is our first blog posting and there are so many exciting things to talk about.
David and Pam (previous managers of Watson Flowers) have retired
David Johnson, Irene’s grandson, along with his wife Pam, has now retired. We thank them for all their hard work and dedication to the family business and the floral industry. They are right now serving as Missionaries in the Dominican Republic. We are so proud of them and wish them well. Their sons, Nathan and Jacob, have taken the reigns and will be managing Watson Flowers. Nathan and Jacob have big shoes to fill. David and Pam will be involved in the business when they return from their missionary service, mostly taking care of our flower garden and helping out during holidays.

About Me
- Watson Flowers
- Watson Flowers was founded in 1927 by Charles and Irene Watson. Irene began in the floral industry by growing her own flowers and selling them right from her own home. In the 1930's Grandma Irene purchased 2,000 rose bushes and went door to door selling her roses. She quickly became known in town as "The Rose Lady." With the profit she made selling the rose bushes she purchased a farm to grow her business. Though the farm is not there anymore, the original building is still there and is managed by Charles and Irene's great grandsons.
