Best Florist to Appease a Rock Star

Cowgirls & Flowers

We confess to insider info here: When Courtney Love threw her famous tantrum (about Ken Lieck's column item on her) at the Four Seasons during SXSW 2002, Cowgirls & Flowers whipped up a to-die-for bouquet of stargazer lilies, baby pink roses, creamy white snapdragons, and fey greenery delivered on the Chron's behalf. Owner Kathryn Miller and her staff worked afterhours to create the floral confection. After graciously accepting them, Love ripped the bouquet apart and used some of the flowers for her interview with News 8's Andy Langer. Confided one longtime SXSW staffer, "I wanted to see her ass out. I wanted to see it out of the Convention Center, out of the city, out of the state."
