Worldwise: ‘Unlikely Florist’ Spencer Falls’ Favorite Things

Posted by Spencer Falls on

Spencer Falls (@theunlikelyflorist | 31K+ Instagram followers), a New Zealand native turned LA’s most avant-garde florist, traded Hollywood’s bright lights for the vibrant colors of nature. What began as creative solace—selling bouquets from his 1980 Volkswagen van in Venice Beach—has blossomed into The Unlikely Florist, a celebrated Los Angeles floral design studio known for its organic, wild arrangements and sustainable ethos.

From Venice Beach to Vogue: A Floral Journey

Falls’ unconventional floral designs—featuring reclaimed wood, foraged elements, and “floralierre” lighting fixtures—have graced high-profile events, including Kim Kardashian’s 2018 Vogue India cover. His work embodies LA’s eclectic spirit: moody, overgrown, and deeply artistic.
