Yeah, it was still there in early April and appeared to be still in business. When I accompanied Engineer to that convention, we took a shuttle bus to the 3000 block of St. Charles to be wined and dined, and on the way back, I noticed it. Poor Engineer. He was regaled with tales of making the rounds of florists with Aunt B. every spring to view their Easter decorations. Back in those days, the only time one patronized them was when somebody died or married. He also had to hear 'When Copeland's Was Crescent City Motors.' And does Emeril now own DelMonico's? Poor Engineer. He's a patient soul. Glad to have him back after his 9 days visiting his Mamanem, and he seems equally glad to be home.

Remember the bunnies on St. Charles and Farleys on Elysian Fields and Gentilly? Easter was fun back then.

We usta go every year to see those bunnies wit our aunt--both locations--on the bus from Metairie. It was a great adventure. We used to do it at Christmas, too. Of course, nothing from a florist ever came into our house, so it was very exotic!
