Events

Fueled by a passion for design, and fostering long-lasting customer relationships, Eric Cardinal first opened Mood Moss Flowers in 2004, and has been serving the Vanier and Rockcliffe communities since.

Eric was influenced to become a florist after seeing the 1996 chickflick “Bed of Roses” starring Christian Slater and Mary Stuart Masterson.  He enrolled in the Algonquin College Floral Design Program in 1997 as the only man in his class. After receiving his diploma in 1998, Eric worked for multiple flower shops across Ottawa for 6 years, always thinking about Beechwood Avenue to open his own business. By the time he was ready to make the move to open his own business, Eric found the current home of our shop. Eric took a risk, signed a 10 year lease and opened Mood Moss Flowers.
