About Christina Wilcomes

---

Christina grew up amongst plant enthusiasts.  Many of her family members were avid gardeners and instilled a deep appreciation of beautiful surroundings.  After a stint in northern New Jersey, Christina and her family moved to the Chester County countryside where she was able to really dig in and experiment with a garden of her own.  Christina spent her time taming a wild three acres (and two young boys) and learning what she could about sweeping perennial borders and container combinations.   With the freshest blooms available just outside her door, Christina taught herself to arrange flowers always mindful of color, composition and texture, not unlike her approach in the garden.  Before her life with flowers, she was an educator with degrees from Smith College and New York University.  It was through teaching that Christina realized her passion for the creative process.  

Hackberry Hill is a small floral studio operating out of both Christina's historic home called Hackberry Hill in West Chester and her studio in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Christina offers clients a unique and highly personalized experience.  She has a profound love for her job and spends a considerable amount of time fussing and fawning over her clients and their flower wishes. While Christina specializes in container plantings, cut flower arrangements, and wreaths, she has also tackled small garden design projects.
