Sweetpea's is a very special florist in the heart of Roncesvalles. The staff at Sweetpea's are experts in their craft, designing beautiful bouquets that are unique and fitting for the occasion. During the spring and summer months Sweetpea's offers many annual and perennial potted flowers that are a perfect fit for the garden. Poinsettias and Christmas trees are available in the Christmas season. Beautiful decor, gift cards, vases, soaps and trinkets line the walls of Sweetpea's creating a little piece of heaven.
After trying several other florists in the area and in Etobicoke Sweetpea's always astounds me with the freshness of their flowers. Bouquets last anywhere from one to 3 weeks depending on the sunlight or indoor temperatures. The prices vary depending on the type of flowers but they are competitive, if not a little cheaper.
With a shop full of smiling faces and furry friends this is a must visit place!
Thank you so much! We love having you at the shop! :o)

Roncesvalles' New Hidden Gem
It was a total fluke finding this shop. I wasn't planning on buying flowers, but walking in the front door was like opening up a jewel box. First thing I noticed - they have the Venus Florist sign!! That alone is worth a visit. The shop itself is beautiful. It smells so good!!!!!!! They sell Bleu Lavende, which I thought I could only get at the One of a Kind Show. I am SO happy I found a shop that sells it in Toronto.
Molly, their floral designer, is as sweet as they come. I started out just looking around and walked out with a beautiful flower bouquet. I wouldn't say the flowers were as cheap as other shops (I spent about $40). But, the flowers were fresh and lasted for over a week. When they were wrapping them up, they asked how long it would be out of water and when I told it would be about an hour or so, and they put a little block of wet foam to keep the flowers fresh until I could get home. That was a nice touch. They use biodegradable cellophane (Who even knew there was such a thing?) and a really nice piece of ribbon, which I ended up saving.
I called a week later to order flowers for my friend's birthday and found out they will deliver all over Toronto (girls, you have to tell more people that when they come in). My friend loved her flower arrangement so much, she posted the photo to FaceBook. Sara, the owner, even found a birthday card I had seen in the shop and sent it with the arrangement - that was really nice of them.
If you haven't already been in, it is worth the drive to Roncesvalles! (just watch out for the construction)
I am so happy that I have found this adorable little shop in Roncesvalles Village. It is so unique and rustic with the beautiful old tin florist sign and brick walls, the atmosphere is alone enough to make me go back. Appearance aside the fresh flowers are always grown locally and brought in weekly it's so nice to be able to go in once a week and see a whole new selection. I've sent out a few orders to my sister who lives in Oakville and she has always been thrilled with the tone on tone classy color palettes. I am so amazed that it is so cost effective to deliver flowers all the way to Oakville or anywhere in the GTA for that matter from my new favorite florist
My boss had a death in her family. I wanted to send a bouquet, and looked online for a florist in the downtown Toronto area. I called Sweetpea's and when asked what I would like I told them my boss' favourite colours were green and pink, and she likes anything that blooms. Sweetpea's was also able to deliver the flowers for me.
When my boss received the floral arrangement, she was so pleased with it, she brought it with her to work the next day. It was beautiful, bright and cheerful, full of pink gerberas and unusual greenery. It was not the typical floral arrangement you can order over the phone, and everyone was impressed by it's uniqueness.
I highly recommend Sweetpea's if you're looking for a high class arrangement that you won't find anywhere else.
I am so happy your boss loved the arrangement. We try to create really unique, beautiful sympathy arrangements; something other than the typical "funeral flowers".
It is nice to know it helped bring some sunshine into her office.
Thank you for your business.
