This Wicker Park flower shop branches off from the average red-rose vendor.

by Contributor

In Short
While patrons range from local to new Bucktown professionals, they all come to Cattails for a stalk of the exotic and the extraordinary. Cattails imports 95 percent of its products from Holland. Three times a week, shipments of flowers like delphinium and gerbera daisies arrive. When in season, tulips sell out quickly. A few potted plants are also available for purchase. The shop also does arrangements for weddings and other events.

IN FULL BLOOM

by highmix

FLOWERS - FLOWERS - and more FLOWERS! ...the selection at CATTAILS is superb! Their assortment includes everything from plants to roses to orchids. Sometimes, I walk into the store just to brighten my day. The staff is friendly and extremely helpful - whether it's a few cut flowers "to go" or a creative arrangement. And, they're pet friendly!! Pictures of Lisa's dog, Wile E, hang above the wrap counter. He's in "doggie heaven" now - but has a sister, Harve E, that's been in training for the past few months. Lisa and Dina have created a floral gem on Division!

• Pros: wonderful assortment, gregarious staff, creative genius

Designer's TOP PICK!

by evalyn

I am a professional interior designer and have used Lisa's services for several years now. She created the signature silver "mint julep" cup arrangement that I use as a gift for my clients and friends. She excells at picking the appropriate material to give this arrangement a unique and seasonal look. Her products are of highest and lasting quality and are reasonably priced. My clients and friends love them! I always look forward to a visit to Cattails for inspiration, friendship and service. I highly recommend them.

• Pros: long lasting material, creative & beautiful, excellent service
