Flowers for Cedar City, UT

Cedar City calls itself Festival City, and the name earns its keep. Every summer the Utah Shakespeare Festival fills the Engelstad and Randall theatres, and the flower orders follow — opening-night bouquets for actors, thank-you arrangements for directors, and gifts left at the box office for out-of-town guests. Layer on Southern Utah University, whose graduations and dorm birthdays anchor the spring and fall, and you have a town whose flower calendar runs on events more than on any single street. Sitting at 5,800 feet against the mouth of Cedar Canyon, Cedar City is also the last real supply town before Brian Head, Cedar Breaks, and the long red-rock drive to Zion, so weddings and getaways farther up the mountain often stage their flowers here first. Everyday deliveries move along Main Street and out to the newer subdivisions on the west side and north toward Enoch, with get-well work running to Intermountain Cedar City Hospital on North Main.
