May Flowers Co is a floral studio in El Dorado Hills, California, founded by Rae May. The studio composes arrangements for the occasions that deserve them — birthdays, anniversaries, Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, sympathies, and the ordinary Thursdays worth marking. Orders are one-off or by weekly subscription, delivered by hand across the greater El Dorado Hills area.

Alongside the everyday arrangement work, we accept a small number of weddings, private events, and installations each season — full-service, from first conversation to end-of-night strike.

The studio is built on a small set of principles: work with what is in season, source from Northern California growers where we can, and keep the hand visible in the finished piece. We do not publish a catalog. Every arrangement is composed around the morning it arrives.
