I'm a self-taught florist with eight cats. My favorite flower is the lily: my namesake, and one of the most dangerous flowers for cats. So it's never once been allowed on my own kitchen table. That didn't sit right with me. So I started The Lily Hour: arrangements designed like a florist's work and reviewed against professional standards, in blooms that stay for years — and kind to every member of the family, including the four-legged ones.
