Bill Kissel A native of New York, Bill grew up in his mother’s flower shop at the epicenter of the financial world—the World Trade Center Concourse in Manhattan. He spent much of his youth helping with orders and making deliveries on foot. In the mid-1980s, he moved to Florida at the age of 19 to open Brickell Flower Shop and sold it in 2003 and moved to Port St. Lucie. In 2007 opened Misty Rose flower Shop and has been operating since.
