Once upon a time, 3 friends lived in the same town in a Boston suburb very similar to Longboat Key: ocean on one side, Boston Bay on the other. Friends #1 and #2 fell in love, married, and lived happily ever after in Washington, DC. Friend #3 continued to design parties and special events, and own his own floral and home boutique in the northeast. Over the years, we all helped each other no matter the cause.
After reuniting on the Suncoast almost a decade ago, the three amigos enjoyed jump-starting their friendship once again. They often discussed retirement and what would come next. After much consideration and thorough market research, they elected to open Le Gardénia Bleu at 5610 Gulf of Mexico Drive.
Le Gardénia Bleu is a gift and floral studio that we feel complements the existing retail base on LBK, as well as its residents and visitors. Please come by and enjoy our hospitality, browse our boutique, and take pleasure in the work of some local artists. We will always have fresh flowers and arrangements to go.
We hope to see you at Le Gardenia Bleu soon.
