Garden Specialists in Tukwila, WA, and Surrounding Areas
Founder Julius Rosso came to Washington state from Italy as a child and arrived in Ronald, Washington. He walked to Seattle to find work when he could not get a gig in the coal mines. He picked up a job in the flower industry and later began working for Seattle Flower Growers, eventually becoming the business owner. But after selling it, he and his wife, Ada, opened the original location of Rosso Gardens in Georgetown in 1958.
Julius was flying live flowers across the country for customers (before FTD had even sprouted), making national news by sending flowers to WWII service members as thanks for their service. An all-in-the-family affair, the business grew from a primarily wholesale business, selling their potted plants and flowers to local grocery stores and box store chains, into one with a public-facing retail operation. Now located in Tukwila, the Rosso family continues to make life beautiful for Seattle's residents.
