What is Tiger Lily?
Our store has been a pivotal part of the Sarasota floral community for two decades. Started by James Carlton and Arthur Faria in 2000, Tiger Lily was the fever dream and passion project of two artists. Beginning as a flower shop and premium antique store, our shop has often been referred to as a labyrinth. From top to bottom, oddities and antiquities decorate every spare surface.
Twenty-five years later, we’re still here!
We try to keep the original spirit of Tiger Lily alive by honoring the original style of James and Arthur–making something unique and wonderful. From weddings to corporate events, funerals, and birthdays, to walk-in flowers for folks in a hurry, we promise to deliver carefully crafted, bespoke arrangements.
In the words of our founders;
“The style here is unrepentantly lush and romantic… and perhaps ever-so-slightly decadent.”
