Westmount Florist is not just a flower shop but part of the fabric Montreal
Westmount Florist has been a trusted name in the Montreal community since 1962. While many know the business for its beautiful bouquets and signature arrangements, what is less recognized is its ongoing commitment to giving back. Westmount Florist is not just a flower shop but part of the fabric of the city. With deep roots in Montreal, the company continues to support the community that has supported it for generations. They have roots here.
A Focus on Giving
At Westmount Florist, every flower is seen as having a purpose, even if it doesn’t end up in a customer’s bouquet. The team believes that blooms should never go to waste when they can still bring joy. Flowers that don’t quite meet the shop’s high retail standards are carefully set aside and donated instead of being composted. These arrangements often find their way to local organizations, hospitals, or individuals who need a lift. It’s a way of making sure that beauty is shared, adding colour, comfort, and brightness to the lives of people who may be going through difficult times.
Community Involvement
Westmount Florist’s love of flowers is matched by its love of the city. The business partners with charities and groups that make a difference, sending them fresh blooms that still have plenty of life left. For president and third-generation Pickrell, Brent Pickrell, it’s about more than just decoration. ‘Flowers are about creating moments,’ he notes, ‘whether it’s brightening a room, celebrating a milestone, or simply making someone feel seen with a small gesture.’ For the team, a vase of flowers is greater than the sum of its parts. They know the warmth and connection flowers create. This ongoing community involvement is a reflection of Westmount Florist’s deep roots in Montreal and its commitment to giving back to the people who have supported it for so many years.
