About La Florería Ochun
Our History
La Floreria Ochun was founded by Maria Sust, who moved her deep-rooted passion for floristry from the basement of her home to a bustling storefront on B Street in Philadelphia. Inspired by her Cuban heritage and spiritual connections, Maria has dedicated herself to crafting floral arrangements that not only beautify spaces but also enrich spirits. Today, La Floreria Ochun continues Maria's legacy, upholding her commitment to exceptional quality and heartfelt customer service, all while serving as a pillar in the community by providing employment opportunities to people of color and fostering a sense of belonging and cultural pride.
