Jessica Christoferson

Owner/Founder of Cymbidium Floral


Jessica first became interested in floral design while studying abroad and interning with one of London’s leading florists. After graduating from Cornell University with a degree in design, she worked for several major retail and event florists in the Chicago area. When she and her husband Mike decided to move to New England, they fell in love with the historic town of Exeter; Jessica opened Cymbidium Floral there in April 2005.


Known for her striking color combinations & love of texture, Jessica’s signature arrangements have a distinctive quality that make them uniquely beautiful. When not in the shop, Jessica can be found spending time with her husband and their kids, Cooper and Ella, gardening, or out walking around town.
