People Drive For Miles To Visit This Charming Floral & Gift Shop In Small-Town Arkansas
It may not be an exclusive Arkansas habit, but here in the Natural State we do love to support our local businesses. Even if it’s not local to your hometown, there’s just something special about visiting a mom-and-pop store. One family-owned business draws in folks from miles around can be found in the small town of Pocahontas. Let’s head to this aromatic shop that’s anything but garden variety.
It's hard to resist calling Bloomingtown a "budding" business for the sake of flower puns, but this establishment has been blossoming for decades.
Bloomingtown Florist & Gifts has been in business for over 20 years! This deep-seeded Pocahontas establishment works hard to preserve the art of flower arranging. Stop in and smell the roses, peonies, gladioli, daffodils, and others at 2479 Thomasville St., Pocahontas, AR 72455.
You can see this art in action whenever you come into the shop.
Find the perfect present for the occasion or something you didn't know you needed in the first place! We have a particular soft spot for their candy bouquets.
The shop also has a "wall of fame" that has a little bit of everything.
Stop in and visit with any of the three generations of the French family while you peruse the plentiful bouquets and gifts. Bloomingtown is open Mon - Fri 8 am - 5 pm and Saturdays from 8 am - 12 pm. We highly recommend an in-store visit but you can also check out their website.
