New business blooms in Oxford

OXFORD – Cheryl L. Gager and daughter, Ellery, are excitedly getting ready for their Monday Grand Opening of Layla’s Flowers. If location is the key, this new florist moving into the former Oxford Coffee House has the perfect site. Add to that a well cultivated, long-term business plan, and you have a fertile future for success!

Oxford residents have surely missed Tim Ryan’s floral flair since he closed The Whistling Swan’s doors in 2005. For several years now, shoppers were forced to look elsewhere for their floral needs, but not anymore. In a romantic color scheme of rose and sage, business partners, Cheryl and Ellery Gager, will be offering fresh-cut flowers and arrangements daily from their complete house of flowers.
