On February 14th, Moxy NYC Chelsea's hotel entryway will be transforming into a convenient place to buy flowers for Valentine's Day. In collaboration with Putnam & Putnam, Moxy NYC Chelsea is hosting the renowned florist duo's first retail location. Floral arrangements by Putnam & Putnam are often found at celebrity events and fashion shows.
The transformed hotel entryway is set to greet guests with an "overgrown botanical experience" and a shop stocked with a variety of seasonal, fresh-cut flowers and other gifts that are perfect for the holiday. The location will be one of the best places to find last-minute fresh flowers in the city, especially as it will be one of the only retail flower boutiques in the wholesale market to stay open into the afternoon.
