A Grand Rapids flower shop since 1875.

Five generations of this city’s birthdays, weddings and goodbyes.

1875

Crescent Street Flowers opens

On the Grand Rapids street that gave the shop its name.

Later

The move to Wealthy Street

The shop becomes Crescent Floral & Gifts. The name travels; the cooler keeps the old sign.

2015

Tracy arrives

Tracy Thomas relocates from Hawaii with her family — 35 years of floristry in hand.

Today

Still arranging

Same-day arrangements, a real gift shop, and Reeds Lake Gear — all from the teal building.

A smiling staff member hands a pink and purple arrangement across the black counter to a customer, vintage Crescent Street Floral Co. signage above the cooler behind them — At the counter — under the original Crescent Street Floral Co. sign.

The owner

Tracy Thomas

Tracy’s love of flowers started as a kid, handing out supplies while her grandmother taught floral-design classes at the local college. Her first floral job came in college — hired because she could tie a proper bow, her grandmother’s doing.

The thirty-five years since have run through greenhouses, floral wholesalers, event and production studios, and the management of a string of flower shops. She led the design team of a Grand Rapids shop named national Retail Florist of the Year by Florists’ Review. In 2015, Tracy and her family relocated to Michigan from Hawaii — and Crescent got its next keeper.
