Four Winds Florist returns to its original home on Trade Street in Tryon

Published 11:11am Monday, August 27, 2012

Established in 1940
Four Winds Florist has been a Tryon institution for more than 70 years. As with many businesses, it has moved up and down the street and around the corner.  Now, the florist has been purchased by local businessman Bob Morgan and returned to its original home beside Green River Gallery on Trade Street in Tryon.
The florist has been purchased from owner/operator Carole Ormand, who will stay on to manage the daily operations. The business will continue to offer the community services such as custom floral design in addition to wedding, funeral and special occasion arrangements. The business has been a long-time FTD floral partner.
Comments Morgan, “We are thrilled to have Four Winds back in its original location. Since its establishment in 1940 by the Costa family, the business has been an important part of Tryon’s history.”
The new location will open soon with hours Tuesday – Friday, 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
