Now that dream has come true. Named in honor of my mother Gillian, who gave me so much encouragement and inspiration, I crossed years and ocean to open Gilly’s Lilies. And though my family instilled that love for both the art and business of flowers, over the years my work has flourished into a style that is indeed all my own. “English garden style” is the term I use to describe both my style and the way I source my materials. It’s all about working with what’s freshest, most in season and most local, creating art with what’s growing right around us here in the Susquehanna Valley.

I hope you enjoy what you find in these pages, and that these samples of my work please you as much as they delighted me when I created them. And, when you’re ready to order your own distinctive arrangements, remember to think about what will make you happy, excited and totally over the moon. After all, isn’t that what this is all about?
