Cherry Creek florist The Twisted Tulip is cool. That’s probably one of the best adjectives to describe my favorite Denver flower shop.

Besides its great name, I love the shop for its fresh, colorful, unique flower arrangements. But even more than that is the personal touch you receive there, one of my favorite things about our locally-owned businesses in Cherry Creek.

Led by new owners Donald and Nancy White, Twisted Tulip employees are personable, friendly and truly care about you.

An example. I was in the shop recently to discuss the Cherry Creek Garden Tour with Donald and Nancy — which they sponsored! — with my 6-year-old daughter Maya, who sat patiently while we talked.

After the meeting, Nancy walked my daughter in the cooler and had her pick out her favorite flower. My daughter picked a long-stemmed pink rose, of course. There’s no question it made her day. She went home and put it in a vast. That rose was the center piece of our breakfast table for more than two weeks!
