Steve’s Flowers and Gifts Inc.
Family Owned and Operated
Founded in 1973 by Steve and Linda Huth, Steve’s Flowers and Gifts has become a successful flower shoppe in Indianapolis. While Steve was attending college, he worked for a local flower shop, delivering, doing odd jobs, and eventually designing. Steve had dreams of opening his own floral facility on the south side of Indianapolis, and when opportunity came, he went to work to make it happen. His philosophy from the start was making sure his customers were happily satisfied. The dedication and commitment towards his goal allowed Steve to move into a larger facility in 1976, and opened a second location in the fast growing town of Greenwood in 1982.
In October of 1988, Steve designed and had built his own building which consists of 7,000 square feet. With greenhouse, card and gift display area, design room, plant department, and a large receiving and delivery area, he supplies his customers with exceptional service and a comfortable setting for shopping and browsing. Through the years, Steve has worked hard for excellent quality in designs, which led to the expansion of the original location in 1999. Expanding this location 3,000 more square feet enabled Steve to have a larger design center to monitor quality control and ensure customer satisfaction.
In 1995, Steve added the convenience of ordering online at www.stevesflowers.com. Today, Steve has made the commitment to adding the convenience of online ordering, while at the same time providing the Personal Service that his customers have come accustom to.

Boldly Speaking
What a wonderful time graduation is. It signifies the culmination of many years of academic devotion and hard work. It is symbolic of one “blossoming” into the world. As it is such a major milestone for all of us, flowers are a great way to recognize the accomplishments of a graduate. Giving flowers or a lovely gift basket is a great way to show thoughtfulness and pride for your special graduate.
Flowers have been an important symbol of thoughtfulness, love and caring for many centuries. In fact the Roman goddess of love, Venus, is often pictured surrounded with different varieties of flowers. In the 19th century, many writers referenced the “language of flowers”. That language defined the symbolic meaning of colors and types of flowers.
The gift of a lovely floral arrangement will add much joy to a friend’s or loved one’s graduation day. With so many varieties of flowers the choices are many for the message you want to convey. Below are some of the options of flowers that you might choose.
Roses
Most everyone loves roses. Such regal beauty and such a wonderful fragrance. Used as confetti in celebrations, the ancient Romans also used roses as perfume. Royalty in the 17th century used roses as legal tender. Typically we tend to think of roses as a symbol of romantic love, However, they can also be used to show admiration and affection for a graduate.
- White roses symbolize a new beginning, purity, and genuine respect.
- Pink roses symbolize happiness.
- Yellow roses symbolize friendship, new beginnings, and joy.
- Orange roses represent enthusiasm and desire.
Peonies
A very popular springtime flower, peonies are frequently used in weddings and baby showers. In Victorian flower language they symbolize a more modest lifestyle of being shy with a happy life. So if your graduate is more of the bashful type, peonies are the perfect flower. The Chinese culture considers peonies as the “king of flowers” and symbolize wealth and power.
Hydrangeas
A lovely gift choice, hydrangeas come in shades of purple, pink, blue or white and are very soft. They have a deep and symbolic meaning of the “gratitude for being understood”.
Carnations
Spicy floral scent is how carnations are sometimes described. You often see photos of Greek and Roman people wearing garlands made from carnations. That is because in those times the carnation was considered the “flower of gods”. This makes them perfect for a graduate to wear as a boutonniere or corsage.
- Red carnations show your admiration.
- Pink carnations tell a graduate you will never forget them.
- White carnations tell a graduate that your love for them is pure.
