As you travel north toward Kansas City, Overland Park’s neighborhoods like Cunningham Heights, Crestview, Southmoor Gardens, and Maple Crest all become more urban and densely populous. On the other hand, neighborhoods toward the southern end of the city, like sprawling Wolf Valley, Glad Acres, Chapel Hill and Terrybrook Farms offer a more rural setting. Of course, not to be overlooked, central Overland Park offers the best of both worlds where families have easy access to work and play. Centrally located Hampton Park, Nottingham Forest, and Winham Hill offer lovely single-family homes. Wherever your loved ones are, our partners offer floral deliveries for any occasion.
