Lexington florist opens flower bar

A Lexington florist is putting a twist on her day job and opening up a spot for her customers to get creative!

Shelby Lang opened Poppy’s Flower Bar two weeks ago on Old Mount Tabor Rd. in Lexington.

“Just come in, have a drink, and grab some flowers,” said Lang. “It’s just a fun experience that you can do anywhere else.”

It’s an experience that begins as soon as you walk through the door with fresh flowers, crafted cocktails, and a display that will make you stop and smell the roses.

“It felt like the right location and it was kind of the perfect marriage of two things that I really love and do,” said Lang.

Shelby’s career started to bloom 10 years ago when she bought a Lexington floral shop.

While wedding planning has always been a big part of her career, she decided it was time to try something new.

“I knew that I wanted to own a bar eventually. It was kind of a 10 year plan and then I happened to fall into this space,” explained Lang.

The flower bar is all about the experience. Whether it’s a date night or girls night out, you have a full display of beautiful flowers to choose from. All you have to do is add some greenery, create your own bouquet and then because all of your hard work, enjoy a cocktail or mocktail.
