more than just your average florist 

At Dandelion, we believe in the power of creativity and community involvement for all. Our floral and gift shop is dedicated to individuals with varying abilities, offering a safe, supportive space where people from all walks of life can express themselves through their craft.

The vision for Dandelion began over 20 years ago, starting as a floral design class at the Deaf and Blind School in Colorado Springs. What started with just a few students soon blossomed into a class of 20 to 30 students, each eager to share their creativity with flowers. Witnessing the talent and joy this brought to our students inspired the creation of Dandelion as it exists today.

Dandelion is more than just a flower shop—it's a place where individuals with varying abilities can build skills, contribute, and thrive. We’re proud to partner with local organizations like District 20 and Division of Vocational Rehabilitation to provide paid work opportunities and valuable training.

Located in the Chapel Hills Mall in Colorado Springs, Dandelion has been serving the community since the fall of 2021. We offer a full range of floral services including fresh bouquets, plants, handcrafted gifts, and more. Our artisans design jewelry, greeting cards, photography, and other unique items, bringing together a diverse range of talent and artistry.

As we grow, we continue to develop innovative retail solutions, like offering floral arranging classes to local community day programs and expanding our inventory with artisan-crafted products. With exciting plans ahead, Dandelion is on a path to double its sales and continue making a positive impact in our community.
