About

Rosie Jeffares-Levitt is the founder of Quince Flowers, known for its refined, artful approach to floral design. With degrees in fine art and a decade of professional experience in London, Rosie has shaped Quince through many stages, from its early days as a boutique within UpCountry furniture stores to later retail collaborations with renowned Toronto names like Dufflet Pastries and chef Mark McEwan. A vibrant flagship store on Queen Street East followed, where Quince thrived for 15 years, with Rosie actively contributing to Riverside's revitalization. Today, Quince Flowers is nestled in a historic Victorian warehouse on Wagstaff Drive—an inspiring space that complements Rosie’s commitment to high-quality, thoughtful floral design in Toronto.
