Editorial Review for Elizabeth Ryan Floral Design – by Tony Phillips
The Scene
Even if you never see the inside of Elizabeth Ryan's tiny railroad shop, chances are you'll benefit from her 20 years in the business. Phone orders are just as common as walk-ins, and she's got a way of talking you through an arrangement even if you don't know peony from pansy. Her custom work is heavy on the exotic--water lilies, lotus flowers, berries and pods. She never advertises, yet the annual New York Horticultural Society Gala is just one of her prestige accounts.
The Goods
Goods arrive the day they're cut, unlike at lower quality vendors whose flowers may sit in the airport for a few days. Striving for the best price within the top range of flora, everything she does is guaranteed. Ryan believes that one rose that opens beautifully says a lot more than a dozen from the Korean grocer that droop and never bloom.

Elizabeth Ryan is full representation of beauty - inside and out! I was surprised to find the "country" ways in the big city. She knows flowers and she knows her people!!

Better than rejuvenation! Elizabeth handled the flowers and table designs for my Aunt Iris' 70th birthday. Aunt "Blue" Iris' memory is starting to fade, but she still talks about those flowers and the beautiful designs. The bald black woman that works in the back is also very nice and helpful.
Pros: No bees were present at store.
