Quick Preview





Here's a quick preview of the AG display that will be in Allan Hancock College library to celebrate and educate students and the public of the AG department's new hands-on horticulture, animal science, and agricultural science classes. 

I am using artificial flowers, fruits, and veggies along with more rustic decor like the burlap, crate, and wood slabs. We'll just pop in a few bottles of wine and we'll have an amazing display!

First Day of Spring




I love looking forward to spring. The tulips, hyacinths, crocus, all these gorgeous bulbs popping up in unexpected places just brings a smile to my face. Not only are they fragrant, but the colors they come in just illuminate the garden

Hydrangea is an amazing flower and we are just beginning to understand its many stages of beauty. From changing bloom color on the plant by adding/changing the pH of the soil to the various color changes that happen as the blooms decline once they are cut, to even drying and preserving the blooms. Hydrangeas, an already forgiving flower for florists, give us the ultimate in long-lasting beauty.

Thank You For Your Referral

Nothing too expensive for a nice thank you arrangement

Sunflower, misty, black mondo grass heart, canna, hosta, ribbon= simple thank you!

It's nice to always remember and maintain a relationship with your clients. Referrals really are the best way to get your name out there because people will also talk about the service, quality, and reputation of how the floral designers presented themselves.
