Learn a bit about us!

A Floral Solution began as a dream and with lots of hard work and
perseverance it finally became a reality late in 2006. I am the
owner/operator Kelly Timmerman.
I would like to give you a bit of my floral background. I am a 4th
generation florist in my family. My Great Grandfather (Alwin Frache)
was the Largest carnation grower in
Western Canada. My Grandfather (Warren Frache) was the proud owner of
Warrens Flower's in Calgary, Alberta. My
Uncle (Al Frache) and my Mom (Sandra Staneland) soon followed the
family's path in opening their own Businesses. D'Annes Flower Boutique
(closed 1998) and Al Fraches Flowers that is still successfully operating in Calgary,
Alberta.
As a young child, I remember sleeping in flower boxes as my mom worked
hard into the night for those special occasions like Valentine's Day,
Mother's Day, etc. When I got older, I became the 'gofer' girl, doing
tasks like filling water tubes, putting picks on pine cones, watering
plants, cleaning the cooler, etc. As I got more experience, I was able
to do more and more. When I was 12 years old, my mom sold my first
flower arrangement. I was so proud of myself!!
That was many years ago. I am now 35 with a wonderful husband, two
terrific boys and a strong support network of family and friends who
have all played a huge role in helping to orchestrate the opening
of "A Floral Solution".
