Steve’s Flowers and Gifts Inc.
Family Owned and Operated
Steve’s Flowers and Gifts Inc. was founded in 1973 by Steve and Linda Huth. As 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.
Steve’s Flowers and Gifts has gorgeous live plants for all occasions!

Houseplant Trend
During the 1970’s, houseplants dominated the home decor. Then by the 1990’s the trend had dissipated to the point that houseplants were no longer the trendy way to decorate. Today there is a resurgence of houseplants being an integral part of home decor. Some of the plants that were once popular are now again. Here are some of the trending houseplants today:
- Aspidistra elatior – cast iron plant
- Asplenium nidus- bird’s nest fern
- Chlorophytum comosum – spider plant
- Fatsia japonica – Japanese aralia
- Ficus elastica – rubber plant
- Monstera deliciosa – swiss cheese plant
- Sansevieria trifasciata – mother – in – law’s tongue
Many home studies have shown that plants can reduce anxiety, depression and just general feelings of negativity. There is not a particular plant variety that is better for your mental health than another. Therefore you have the ability to select from a wide variety of plants. Not only are houseplants good for your mental health but they also are good for your physical health and they add beauty to your home’s interior decor.
So what about growing plants indoors that you can use in cooking. Below is a list of various edible plants:
- Sweet Bell Pepper – Several dishes call for bell pepper. These plants look nice growing in indirect sunlight and in a terracotta pot.
- Chili Pepper- These do not require great amounts of water and grow best on a warm window ledge.
- Herbs – A wide variety of these include mint, oregano, tarragon and sage. They also require a sunny window sill and not much water. Just moist soil.
- Salad Leaves – Arugula, lettuce and endive look beautiful as ornamental plants, They also smell fresh and are not difficult to grow. They need to be kept well watered.
- Tomatoes- A favorite vegetable in many dishes, these plants are easy to grow. With weekly tomato feed and water you should have tomatoes throughout the summer months and into the beginning of the fall season.
Our professional floral designers at Steve’s Flowers and Gifts would be elated to help you select a plant for your home. Please let us know what you are looking for and we will strive our best to create that perfect product.
