Best Place to Stop and Smell the Oncidium

The South Bay has no shortage of great florists, but there's something special about the extra creative touches at Brian Davino Florist. Maybe it's the exotic quality of their flowers from the Pacific Islands, South America, Asia and Europe. BDF knows how to pronounce phalaenopsis, and also the best place in Southeast Asia to find this orchid. From azaleas to hydrangeas to tried-and-true roses, their distinctive sensibility is enough to change the way you think about flowers. (SP)
