Hi, I’m Jill Lee!
I’m the owner and CEO of FLORA + LEE.
Flora was my maiden name (fitting, right?!?) and Lee is my married name, hence FLORA + LEE. I'm a wife, a mom to 9-year-old twin girls and lover of ALL flowers!
I've been obsessed with flowers since I was a young girl. I’m a Colorado native but spent lots of time on my grandparents' farms in Western Kansas. I have fond memories of running around with my siblings and cousins playing with kittens, calves, chickens and piglets.
My paternal grandmother had a very large garden next to her farmhouse that was overflowing with all types of veggies and flowers. I vividly remember helping her water, weed and pick basket after basket of green and yellow beans, tomatoes and cucumbers. The perimeter of the garden was a riot of color from the bright pink peonies to the dark red cockscomb, super tall amaranth, multi-colored zinnias, and roses. In the evenings, we would run through the massive front yard and catch fireflies in mason jars. Those were some magical summers!
Today, I'm happiest in the garden or creating art with flowers. I love digging in the dirt, planting seeds and watching them sprout and grow. I love examining each plant and flower to see how they’re formed and thrive. My perfect day is exploring a botanic garden or flower farm.
My goal is to preserve the fleeting beauty of perfect blooms so that they will remain a cherished keepsake for years to come!
