About Grant Donson

“I practically grew up in a florist, learning the business and developing my craft from the age of 14 years in my hometown of Plettenberg Bay. After a few years learning from masters of floristry in Cape Town, I moved to Johannesburg where, after a few years of establishing myself here as an employed florist and informally running a part-time business, I took the giant and daunting leap of faith into full entrepreneurship and formally registered By Grant Donson in 2017. By Grant Donson is the umbrella brand from which Flowers By Grant Donson is derived. I have never looked back because I am doing what I love and on my own terms, it is food for my soul and my flamboyant floral creations!”
