Who doesn’t love flowers? Who doesn’t love classic VW’s retrofitted as a flower truck? The two combined are just a killer combination of happiness, you can’t help but smile when you see the trucks filled to the brim with beautiful fresh seasonal flowers!
Posies Flower Truck was established in 2017 and has been bringing happiness to the community ever since. The owners, David and Stephanie Frank of Oldsmar, Florida have been long time business owners in Tampa Bay for over 30 years. Their companies, Lightning Technology Group, Inc. an IT company (Update: Lightning was acquired in November of 2021 and is now Big Sur of Tampa) and Thunder Media Group, Inc. a web development and marketing company that services small to medium sized businesses. One would think as techies the idea of owning a flower truck would be a stretch, it’s far from it! Their entire careers have been helping others be successful in their own businesses through the use of technology and creativity. When the opportunity presented itself to own one of the coolest VW in town it was a no brainer for the Franks.
This is not their only classic VW, they also own a 1965 VW Split Window Camper bus they affectionately named Sky. “They are like potato-chips, you can’t have just one” says David Frank.
Boy does that statement hold true because they have added more VW’s to the Posies family, a 1968 Double Cab they named Daisy and most recently a 1964 Split Window Single Cab that has yet to be named! The newest truck should be on the streets by January of 2023.
With Posies popularity and brand recognition they are the bringer of people! When popping up at a local business Posies fans love to follow them wherever they go. The trucks are also popular for special events, where guests create their own bouquets by picking single stems from two rows of galvanized buckets filled or selecting pre-made bouquets from baskets
From business pop-ups, grand openings, weddings, parties, photo shoots, charity fundraisers, birthdays and more Posies loves nothing more than to get creative with you and bring the happy to any special occasion! Guests will remember it for years to come.
We drive them everywhere & it’s a blast, even with the old school 4 speed transmission, no air conditioning or power steering
If you give us a honk on the road and we are in Posies her horn doesn’t work, we will try to give you a peace sign
We have the best VW mechanic located in Safety Harbor, we call him the “VW Whisperer” & when either VW visits we like to call it a “spa retreat”
Posies & Daisy are from the same year, 1968, P3 is from 1965, all 3 are German made
P & D have many VW friends and is a part of Local Volks, a long standing Florida VW group, their fav meet is at the Dunedin Causeway for #TBT
The trucks have a sister from another mister, a 1965 VW Camper Bus named Sky #skyvwbus
All set up for the Women’s Conference for #valspar this morning.

What the Gerbera Daisy? We had 2 of these lil 🦉🦉over the weekend & just had to share. Or is it an “Angry Bird” character?
Thank you to everyone we came out to see us during Project Cupid! It was epic and we adore each and every one of you!
We are headed to Brandon Hospital tomorrow to spread the love 💕 with our healthcare workers and then we have 2 private events on Valentines Day. IF we can restock and our legs and feet still have feeling we may pop up one more time @hydeparkvillage later in the day. We will do our very best to let you know as soon as we can!
Love, Posies & Team

Vintage Inspired Love 💕
This sweet photo of a couple & their vw bug speaks volumes to us and why Posies just makes people smile. Simpler times, sweet enduring love, happiness, memories, talking to one another, neighbors, community, epic photo opportunities and of course we can’t forget flowers, beautiful amazing flowers.🌸
We are just about ready for “Operation Cupid” and we can’t wait to share the love! We begin popping up Thursday @tampacitycenter and we cover as much ground (road) as we can from there. (www.findposies.com)
If you spot us zooming (ok, maybe putt putting) around town give us a love honk (not a scare the crap out of you honk, you know what we mean) and we will try to give you a honk or peace✌️sign back. (Posies horn isn’t currently working, just in case we don’t toot back & a peace sign ☮️ is given. Daisy’s horn works great, better chances with her! 👍)
Thank you #tampabay and #beyond for taking this journey with us! We love you and can’t wait to see you!
