The all-white, sparsely accessorized Spruce shop in Silver Lake reflects the store’s floral design aesthetic: modern. The L.A. outpost of this New York “best of” mainstay (it was founded there in 1998) has become an Eastside favorite for the florally inclined. Need something unusual? Pick one of their cool vessels, like a silver Champagne bucket or a window box made from welded stainless steel. Or grab a submerged flower or leaf for a funky, high-impact gift—these are especially great for those with less-than-girly tastes. Plus, the shop’s late hours (it’s one of the few that’s open until 8pm everyday) make it ideal for those with last-minute flower needs, or those who are running late for that first date/dinner party/night out. Despite the shop’s stark look, Spruce’s floral arrangements are bright, full of color and always deliver a "wow" factor.
