Our story

At Flowers by Bhanu, we’re passionate about bringing the beauty, fragrance, and elegance of traditional Indian florals to every celebration. Founded and operated by Bhanu Shetty, a seasoned expert in the floral industry with over 30 years of experience, Flowers by Bhanu has blossomed into a trusted name in Indian flower artistry, serving countless joyous occasions.

Bhanu Shetty’s journey began with a vision to share the rich tradition of Indian flower garlands and décor with a broader audience. With roots in Jackson Heights, Queens, Bhanu has spent decades honing her craft, sourcing the finest jasmine, mulai, and marigold flowers locally and globally. Each garland is handmade to order with careful attention, whether using locally sourced blooms or the finest imports. The result is stunning, fresh floral work that has adorned events and even graced celebrities like Maitreyi Ramakrishnan at the All That Glitters Diwali Ball.

Featured in Daily News, Rolling Stone with Madonna, Good Morning America, Maharani Weddings, and the Bollywood classic Kal Ho Na Ho, Bhanu Shetty’s creations have a reputation that speaks for itself. Every garland tells a story of beauty and craftsmanship, adding a touch of tradition to weddings, festivals, and life’s most cherished moments.
