F
or the upcoming Valentine's
Day, which, in 2023, will be
on a Tuesday, we want to help
inspire you to develop designs
that are uniquely yours and
targeted to your marketplace.
To get some imaginative and inventive
design ideas, we invited floral designers
from across North America and around
the world to share their most creative
holiday arrangements in four categories:
"Rose Arrangements," "Mixed (Non-rose)
Arrangements," "Tropical Arrangements"
and "Hand-tied or Wrapped Bouquets."
We received more than 100 beautiful design
ideas, a few of the most innovative are
featured here. And you can get to know
more about Laura Draghici, EMC, owner
of Chic Fleuriste in Ploiesti, Romania, the
winner of this contest in a "Florist Spotlight"
feature that will appear in an upcoming issue
of Florists' Review.
