ABOUT THE STORE
Petal and Thorn

PETAL + THORN: a play on Yin and Yang.
Behind every vision is a story, and this is one of love: a love of creating, of color, texture, art, design and nature. Where passions combine and their elements inspire in a multitude of ways, creating something truly beautiful.
Founded in the summer of 2022, after a culmination of years of industry experience, our Designer set his mind to expand this vision of his aesthetic into something more. He believes that floral design is an ephemeral art: created from natural elements, that have a finite lifespan. Like an Artist wields their brush, this Florist paints with blossoms and buds.
Proudly serving La Mesa and the surrounding communities in San Diego, California.

ABOUT THE OWNER
Thomas Hoyle

Award-winning and acclaimed Designer, Thomas Hoyle, entered the floral world by happenstance in 2007, but the match was kismet. It allowed him a creative channel where inspirations and interests met, opening up a world of art that he had never imagined for himself.

Thomas was born and raised just south of Los Angeles, in the coastal communities of San Pedro and Rancho Palos Verdes. From the beginning, his penchant for creativity shown bright. This was easy to indulge in a family with many artistic inclinations, who instilled a reverence for curiosity, culture, history, and the natural world. Thus, Thomas’ foundations were forged.

Before discovering floral design, Thomas dreamed of being an Artist, a Graphic Designer, an Interior Designer, a Fashion Model and a Botanist. He even spent three months living in Ecuador, studying the plethora of native orchids in their wild habitats. After returning to the states, and moving to Phoenix, Arizona, floral design finally found him. He was lucky enough to learn under the tutelage of Jilaine Snyder, before landing a position at the prestigious White House Design Studio. Here he blossomed to designing full-scale gala events, private estate weddings, intimate celebrations and fetes, oft working with celebrities and luxury fashion labels. This first decade was truly fundamental in building the foundation from which Thomas continues to reference.

In 2017, Thomas moved back to Southern California and began designing in San Diego’s coastal enclave of La Jolla. Here he brought his knowledge of design and melded it with the vibe of this seaside community. In the summer of 2022, after fifteen years in the industry and garnering a following of fans (for which he is forever thankful and humbled by), Thomas set forth to create PETAL + THORN.

When he isn’t creating, Thomas enjoys traveling, time at the beach, art museums and galleries, growing orchids, and practicing mindfulness in nature. Thomas frequently travels between San Diego, Phoenix, and Los Angeles to design for his clients.

Policies

Substitution Policy

In some instances, our photo may represent an overall theme or look and include a one-of-a-kind vase which cannot be exactly replicated.

Although the actual bouquet may not precisely match the photo, its temperament will. Occasionally, substitutions of flowers and/or containers happen due to weather, seasonality and market conditions which may affect availability. If this is the case with the gift you’ve selected, we will ensure that the style, theme and color scheme of your arrangement is preserved and will only substitute items of equal value or higher value.

If any design elements are of major importance to your order, please include them in the florist instructions at checkout or contact us to ensure availability.

Delivery Policy

To assure that your order is delivered, it is of the utmost importance that all necessary information be provided. Please check the address for accuracy, provide the recipients first and last name, and a current phone number for the recipient or another member of their household.

If no one is home we reserve the right leave the arrangement, but only if there is a safe and sheltered place to do so. In this case, we will leave a detailed massage with the recipient so that they may retrieve it when they return. This is dependent on the location and its accessibility. If it is deemed unsafe to leave, we will try to redeliver later that day.

Should we not be able to leave the arrangement and are unable to make contact with the recipient on the day of scheduled delivery, then a redelivery must be made on a subsequent day. There will be an additional charge for a second delivery.

Refund Policy

All sales are final. We do not accept returns or offer refunds. Any and all adjustments to your order must be made prior to the date of delivery.

Delivery Details & Tips

Every gift ordered through BloomNation is personally hand-delivered by the local florist. Each local florist sets their own delivery area and fee.

Most florists offer same-day hand delivery, but may have different order received cut-off times for same-day delivery that are based off of the recipient’s time zone. Florists that offer same-day delivery display their same-day delivery cut-off time in their store detail section. Orders received after that time may be delivered the following day. Please note some florists may not make deliveries on Sunday.
