No. 01The Shop

Two florists, one workbench.

Manites is run by a mother and her daughter — two pairs of hands at the same bench, a kettle always on, and buckets of stems by the door. What began as one of them filling the house with flowers became a corner shop the whole neighbourhood now leans on.

We keep it small on purpose. Everything is made to order, in front of you, so a bouquet for a birthday, a sorry, or a plain old Tuesday is never more than a few minutes away. We learn the regulars' favourites and remember the anniversaries — that's the part we love most.

“Tell us who it's for and we'll know what to reach for.”
