The name Rainforest was chosen for its reminiscent of the rain forest where life cycles and recycles. What a marvelous plan to create such a business that can mimic that same principle. Thus the name Rainforest was chosen.  We have since embodied our philosophy with ethical growing of plants that do not use excessive chemicals (which also harm our wildlife) or employed by child laborers (you’d be surprised what you may buy from your grocery store comes from regions of highest child labor infractions) or enslaves indigenous peoples or reducing their agricultural lands to fill quotas required by mega wholesalers, distributors, brokerage houses. 

We borrow ideas of many indigenous lands where people have worked with their ecology, living as partners for life. We also strive for this partnership in the way we do our business. 

One of our main goals is to enrich the heritage culture of our ancestors in today’s hectic lifestyle.  Whether you’re Asian, European, Polynesian, African, etc,  a collective philosophy of giving back to nature, “take the best of life and always pass that along,” ideal is what we try to evoke in everything we do. 

Flowers is such an enriching and endearing aspect of our culture. It should be done with finesse and license to awaken our spirits, our minds and our hearts. If these goals are not achieved, then the art of flower design has nothing to offer. We always look ahead, never going back. The art of flower design goes back many centuries. Simply it is a way to express oneself using flowers as the media. The idea is simple, but what it achieves cannot be replaced with any other media that can have such a profound effect on us.  Like a rain forest, we are also evolving foward.

Our website itself is an evolving process. We incorporate  zodiac signs in our use of flowers and numbers. Flower selections in our arrangements evolve around our strong involvement with horoscope and astrological influences. We are also governed by the sun, moon and its relationship with Earth. We follow numerological and base our philosophies on Feng Shui and other ancient practices. We would like to keep this rhythm in motion in everything we do. Much thought goes into the making of an arrangement at Rainforest.

1. Prompt service, helpful staff. We get it. You need to get in, get your stuff and then get back on the road. We provide complimentary flower trays to support safe transport of your arrangements and small plants.  If you’re bringing in your own vases to have filled, please note that arranging flowers is not part of the cut flower price tag.
2. We strive to maintain a fresh inventory of flower arrangements ready for you. We welcome advanced orders ($50 minimum please) and will have them ready for you to pick up, already boxed in a safely design tray or box composed from recycled boxes, packing media, etc. Otherwise you may stop in and see what is available on a first come first served basis.
3. When you arrive at Rainforest. We know that you are here because you are looking for something extra special and unique. While we can make an arrangement for a baby boy new arrival, we would  prefer that you pre-order these as they will not be part of our standard inventory for something with blue flowers.
4. We are thoughtful in making sure what you buy is environmentally correct. Our arrangement trays are made from recycled boxes, our leis are wrapped in ti leaves. Even a single rose is individually or group wrapped in ti leaves! Otherwise flowers are wrapped in recycled white paper.
5. Enclosure cards and envelopes are complimentary with minimum purchase. We also provide water tubes, cotton water packs, flower food when you purchase flowers that require these. These items are complimentary when they are self served. They are located on your way out. Or you may bring in your own card to add to your order.
6. We accept all major credit cards and cash. However, we do not accept checks unless approved or on account.
