Editorial Review for Ten Pennies Florist – by Rachel Rogala
In Short
Ann and Jerry Catania started a gift and card shop in 1980 across from South Philly's St. Agnes Medical center. Since then, their business has truly blossomed. Besides the numerous weddings, bar mitzvahs and special events they provide flowers for on any given weekend, they have accounts with the Eagles, Sixers and many local politicos.

Fun FactBack when Ann worked at St. Agnes', she made silk-flower arrangements on the side. With the arrangements she included a mesh bag of ten pennies--hence the present name.

I have never been treated so rudely as I was when I went in here and inquired about my daughters upcomming wedding. They treted me like I was bothering them and they couldn't wit for me to leave the store. Their prices in comparison to other well known shops was very high. You would have thought that they were the last flower shop on earth. I don;t need grandiose additudes...I needed weddding flowers...I got them somewhere else.
Pros: There right on Broad Street
Cons: Their prices were much too high and they were rude

I am referring to Ann Catania, the owner of Ten Pennies Florist, as the best florist around. It is rare nowadays to actually get to meet and work with the owner of any business. At Ten Pennies, my mother and I met with Ann and she actually helped us to design a layout and pick the flowers and arrangements for my upcoming wedding. She offered suggestions when asked and I am assured that my wedding day is going to look beautiful because of her designs. I can't wait to see it! Her staff was also very helpful while we were working with Ann. I would recommend Ten Pennies Florist to anyone and plan to. Jaclyn Basgil and Doris Basgil
