As the owner of a Vancouver Landscaping Company and DH Garden Centre with an online store, I have seen firsthand how gardens can be more than just patches of soil and blooms – they can be places where love flourishes. This Valentine’s Day, I want to share a heartwarming story that grew right here in our community, nurtured by the passion for gardening.
It all started when Emma, a young professional new to Vancouver, visited our garden centre searching for herbs to brighten up her small apartment. She was drawn to the fresh aroma of basil and rosemary but was unsure about how to care for them. Across the aisle, Ryan, an avid gardener and regular customer, noticed her hesitation and offered a tip or two.
Their shared love for plants sparked conversations, and soon they found themselves meeting at our weekend gardening workshops. Over time, their bond grew stronger, just like the plants they nurtured together. Ryan even designed a small balcony garden for Emma using supplies from our online store, turning her apartment into a green haven.
This Valentine’s Day, Ryan proposed to Emma in a beautifully landscaped park designed by our landscaping company, surrounded by blooming roses and delicate fairy lights. Emma said yes, and their story is a reminder that love, like a garden, needs care, patience, and the right environment to thrive.
