Sending beauty to loved ones since 1971…

So far its been a wonderul life!

There is something to be said for longevity.

From early days, we followed this advice:

Find something you love to do, and you won’t work a day in your life.

We have also learned over the years, that the Love you take is equal to the Love you make.

That’s our story.

Zuzu’s Petals has been sending flowers to neighbors for over 50 years!

Zuzu’s began its life in 1971 as Growing Things, a plant shop on 7th Avenue. Our owner, Fonda, managed it for 2 years, and bought it in 1974. After a fire in 2004, the generous support of our friends and neighbors transplanted us to our new home on Fifth Avenue. Over the years, we have put down roots amongst our neighbors and flourished with the creative input of many talented designers.

Every week, Fonda carefully hand selects the loveliest blooms from the NYC flower market to fill our fresh flower bar. Their colors and heady fragrance greet everyone who stops in for a visit. Consider this your personal invite.

In July 2023, The Assembly State of New York welcomed Zuzu’s Petals into the New York State Historical Business Preservation Registry, which highlights businesses that have been in operation for at least 50 years and have contributed to their community’s history.

Delivering Love from our door to yours!
