Police in Yardley 'petal it forward' - News - Bucks County Courier Times

Tuesday, November 19, 2019

Usually giving something else out," said Sgt. William Golden as he prepared for the delivery duty.This is the fifth year that the police department has joined with Ye Olde Yardley Florist in a national "Petal It Forward" campaign sponsored by the Society of American Florists, of which the shop is a member.The acts of kindness caught drivers and pedestrians off guard, but their smiles told the story. No one seemed to mind the few extra seconds waiting in traffic for the officers and flower helpers to hand out two roses to those who drove or walked down Main Street.The campaign’s idea is that you keep one rose for yourself and give the other to a friend, family member or even a stranger."It’s my absolute favorite day of the year," said Noreen Gorka, a manager of the flower shop, a Yardley institution for 105 years. "We gets tons of smiles, gratitude and even hugs and tears."The shop, located at 175 S. Main, supplied 900 roses to the event this year, in bright white, golden orange and sunny yellow. And, of course, red and rosy pink.Some of the colorful bouquets were sent to Edgewood Elementary School for the teachers there; they in turn, gave their extra rose to teachers at Charles Boehm Middle School, Gorka said.Others went to a networking group in Newtown to share, and were given to commuters at the Yardley train statio... https://www.buckscountycouriertimes.com/news/20191024/police-in-yardley-rsquopetal-it-forwardrsquo

Blooms And Things Florist is Your Local Tuxedo Rental Headquarters - The Pine Tree

Tuesday, November 19, 2019

Bradley was born. Vicki’s parents (Iva & Cecil Hughes) soon moved to Arnold and open Daffy’s Roost Restaurant in Cedar Center.Soon thereafter, in the adjacent side of Daffy’s Roost was born a florist called Blooms And Things owned and operated by Carol Jones. As you can imagine, it didn’t take long for Vicki to take up interest in working for Carol while simultaneously working for her mother at Daffy’s Roost.After about a year of working for Carol, Vicki and Ron along with Iva Hughes (Vicki’s Mother) bought Blooms And Things Florist from Carol and set opening date for August 1st 1985.Those who were around in Arnold back then may remember that it was not at all uncommon for people to pick up lunch and a bunch of Margaret Daisies for the office. As time went on, the flower shop grew and the need for more space and more family help became apparent as Vicki’s mother, Iva, found herself working both her restaurant and the floral shop at the same time.As the 1990’s approached, Vicki’s parents sold their restaurant and Blooms & Things moved to the Junction Building more popularly known in the 80’s as “Whiskey River” (formerly the location of the old Arnold Post Office). This move increased building space by three times and the staff included Vicki, Ron, Iva, Cecil,... http://thepinetree.net/new/?p=90892

Marigold harvest a gift to workers who have kept Mellano blooming for 50 years - The San Diego Union-Tribune

Tuesday, November 19, 2019

Knott’s Berry Farm.At the request of poinsettia grower and family friend Paul Ecke, the Mellano family took over management of the American Florist Exchange in L.A. in the 1960s. And in the 1970s, Giovanni and Maria’s son Mike Mellano Sr. and son-in-law Battista Castellano moved to Oceanside to expand the family’s flower empire. Chairman of Mellano & Company Michael Mellano stands among marigolds at the Mellano & Company farm on Friday, October 25, 2019 in Oceanside.(Hayne Palmour IV / The San Diego Union-Tribune) Today, Mellano & Co. farms more than 40 varieties of cut flower products, particularly the fresh foliage and greenery that fills out most traditional floral bouquets. With locations in Oceanside, Carlsbad, Orange County and Las Vegas, it’s the largest specialty cut-flower grower in the nation, producing 6 million flower stems each year. In partnership with the Ecke family and Armstrong Nursery, Mellano & Co. also oversees the 40-acre growing and wholesale operations for The Flower Fields in Carlsbad.Michelle Castellano Keeler, the daughter of Battista Castellano, also grew up on the farm and today is the company’s corporate vice president. She and her cousin, Mike M., said the company has always had a heart for immigrant workers because of their family’s roots in Italy.During World War II when Japanese farmers in California were sent to internment camps, Giovanni Mellano purchased some of their L.A. farm properties and equipment for $1 and then stored everything for the internees until they returned after the war.At the Oceanside farm, Mellano & Co. offers onsite housing for its workers, some of whom have lived on the property for two generations. From 40 to 50 workers live there now, most of them were born in Mexican as well as a few Guatemalans and a family of Congolese refugees. Keeler said the idea for the worker housing came from her dad.“He was an immigrant himself and when we first moved here, he felt the way the Hispanic workers were treated was horrible so he built this area on our farm where they could live and be safe,” she said. Advertisement Taking care of workers is also smart business. Mellano said that 10 years ago, 50 people would show up to apply for five open jobs. Now, with the local unemployment rate at a historic low, just one person will show up to apply for five open jobs, and they may not even have the proper legal documentation to qualify.

Their Mellano & Co. now farms more than 340 acres of flowers in Oceanside and Carlsbad.(Courtesy of Mellano & Co.) Beyond the labor shortage, growing flowers is an increasingly challenging business. The cost of water, electricity and equipment keeps rising along with competition from South American growers, who have significantly lower production costs.To adapt over the years, the company shifted its growing focus away from high labor-intensive crops like gladiolus and chrysanthemums to lower labor-intensive crops like myrtle, ruscus and other greenery. The company also expanded beyond the cut-flower trade into growing hemp, succulents and potted poinsettias and hydrangeas.The company has also invested in state-of-the-art equipment, like sensors that measure the amount of water in the soil to... https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/north-county/story/2019-10-27/marigold-harvest-a-gift-to-workers-who-have-kept-mellano-blooming-for-50-years

The Alchemy of Flowers at Wild Things Flowers & Curiosities - StyleBlueprint

Tuesday, November 19, 2019

Flowers can change people. Florist Carolyn Chen sees this firsthand every day at her Homewood shop, Wild Things Flowers & Curiosities, where each arrangement is prepared with the giver’s heartfelt message to their recipient — moving messages for friends grappling with illness, grief or just a bad day; sweet personal notes to lovers; and celebratory congrats for new babies, anniversaries and birthdays. Flowers bring people back into the moment, connecting them to the one who sent the blossoms and making them smile. And they don’t just lighten the heart of the recipient, they bring joy to the giver, fulfillment to the creative florist, and even newfound confidence to the floral workshop student.“I think they are a reminder of the fact that we live on Earth” says Carolyn. “We go about our days among the hustle and bustle that we’ve created with businesses, industry, and technology, and we’re so immersed that we forget that we’re all human beings on an organic planet. So when something like a death brings you ba... https://styleblueprint.com/birmingham/everyday/wild-things-birmingham-florist/

Flower etiquette has changed dramatically over time. But the type you give still sends a message. - The Washington Post

Tuesday, November 19, 2019

Amy Merrick in her new book “On Flowers,” just published by Artisan Books. In her new book “On Flowers: Lessons from an Accidental Florist” Merrick observes one of the mysteries of a florist’s life. Though she spends her days arranging thoughtful bouquets and compositions for others, “it is an unwritten law of the universe that no one ever sends a florist flowers” she writes. Are they afraid they would be judged or that their message would be messed up? “I w... https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/home/when-you-send-flowers-what-message-are-you-sending/2019/11/05/61d33abc-f1e2-11e9-8693-f487e46784aa_story.html
