About Us

Flora Home & Garden is a thoughtfully curated lifestyle boutique inspired by nature, nostalgia, and old-world artistry. Founded by husband-and-wife team Jacquelyn and Stefano Folino, Flora offers a collection of fresh florals, artisan home décor, garden treasures, clean body products, and meaningful gifts—each chosen to help you create a home and life filled with beauty, intention, and joy.

The name Flora honors Jacquelyn’s great-grandmother, Flora Palermo, and also nods to the Roman goddess of flowers and plants. But the soul of Flora was planted long ago—when Jacquelyn spent childhood summers surrounded by the gardens of her parents and the many gardens of her grandparents beautiful country home. Alongside her sisters, she would gather blooms to make homemade perfumes and floral creations, cultivating an early love for nature, design, and meaningful giving.

Over time, that love grew into a deep appreciation for European history, art, and architecture. Whether exploring historic cities or collecting inspiration from centuries-old details, Jacquelyn has always been drawn to the timeless beauty and romantic charm of the old world—elements that now infuse the spirit of Flora.

Stefano, an artist and skilled craftsman, brings his Italian heritage to life in Flora’s design language. Summers spent in Italy with his grandparents and cousins instilled in him a connection to European tradition, slower living, and the elegance of hand-crafted work. His influence is seen throughout the store—in the sculptural concrete planters, statuary, and refined finishes that reflect both function and form.

Together, Jacquelyn and Stefano created Flora not only to share their artistry but to bring something their community was missing. After years of traveling long distances to find meaningful gifts and inspiration for her home and garden, Jacquelyn envisioned a space nearby where others could feel that same sense of discovery, care, and beauty.

At Flora, you’re invited to slow down, enjoy your surroundings, and embrace the joy of intentional living. From our interactive bloom bar and hand-poured coconut wax candles, to resin and wood epoxy pieces that preserve cherished memories into forever keepsakes—everything we offer is rooted in storytelling, craftsmanship, and the art of living beautifully.

Flora is more than a store—it’s a space to be inspired, to connect, and to bring home something that truly speaks to you.
