This florist started caring for ailing orchids on the side. He’s now babysitting 13,000. - The Washington Post

The business is known for boarding customers’ orchids between bloom cycles. Even within Richmond’s redbrick historic neighborhood known as the Museum District, Art Chadwick’s florist’s shop seems like a quaint throwback to an earlier time. A bell chimes as you open the door, and fans swirl below a pressed-tin ceiling. Cymbidiums, cattleyas and other flowering orchids are presented in decorative pots on round tables. Along one wall, a green pleated sofa invites patrons to linger and chat.I am here on a mild Friday afternoon in winter, and a small but steady stream of customers arrive, chatting in relaxed fashion with the proprietor. Chadwick, 56, is dressed casually in a brown cable-knit sweater, and he seems to be a guy comfortable in his own skin, smooth and urbane — in sum, exactly what you might expect in the genteel and luxuriant world of orchids.For all the delight of this little flower shop, I can’t help thinking that it should belong to a time before mass merchandisers (nevermind the Internet) came along and did away with mom-and-pop haberdashers, milliners, green grocers and the like. But Chadwick & Son Orchids is thriving and preparing to expand. To understand why, you have to perch yourself on that green sofa and observe carefully. You will come to see that the customers aren’t just leaving with orchids, they ... https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/home/this-florist-started-babysitting-ailing-orchids-on-the-side-hes-now-boarding-13000/2019/04/03/e5bc550e-3ba1-11e9-a2cd-307b06d0257b_story.html

St. Paul paper artist crafts incredibly realistic flowers that last - Minneapolis Star Tribune

St. Paul artist Anna Gaseitsiwe of A Paper Florist creates delicate handmade flowers, foliage and even vegetables using crêpe paper. Not the garishly colored spools you find at big-box party stores, but high-end German-made crêpe paper. “It stretches and bends and allows you to manipulate it,” she said of her chosen medium. Spices, bleach and pollen are used to create subtle hues that mimic nature. “I try to get as close to real life as possible,” she says. Gaseitsiwe, who formerly investigated money laundering, developed and honed her floral-crafting technique after taking time off from that career to spend more time with her children and moving to Minnesota. Now she creates custom arrangements for permanent home decor and special events — even wedding bouquets. Paper flowers serve as an everlastin... http://www.startribune.com/st-paul-paper-artist-crafts-incredibly-realistic-flowers-that-last/495207271/

Designer Gourmet - The Business Times

Market' in whimsical fashion. And at the checkout counter - an explosion of blooms cover the work table of Grandiflora, the inhouse florist run by Australian celebrity floral designer Saskia Havekes, who has created blooms for the homes of Nicole Kidman and the like.It's a far cry from the old Culina, where you're more used to negotiating its cramped surroundings and trying not to knock tins of foie gras or wine off their precariously stuffed shelves. Even its tight squeeze of a bistro is now a breezy, spacious grazing ground furnished with black and white woven wicker chairs, and giant ceiling lamps made of lightbulbs strung on skeletal frames.BIGGER IS BETTER The new Culina is 2.5 times bigger than the old one at 15,000 sq ft, says Leelyne Yeo, General Manager of Culina Pte Ltd. Although the company itself has been around for 25 years, it was acquired by the COMO group in 2012, and the move to its new space at Block 15 ''brings Culina within the COMO F&B and lifestyle enclave''.Besides aligning itself with the group's wellness-inspired ethos, it's also primarily a place for ''professional chefs, F&B trade industry, gourmands and home chefs to come together to connect and celebrate through food''.There's a huge separate wine section and a bar, as well as a demo kitchen that can be booked for cooking sessions or corporate events. But if you just want to have a meal, take your pick of the fresh seafood or meats and have them brought over to the bistro to be cooked to your preference.''We want to re-create a bustling atmosphere and infectious vibes of a European street market, as well as a Frenchstyle bistro,'' adds Ms Yeo. That's why the displays of fresh seafood are laid out so you can get a close up look while engaging with the butchers or fishmongers about the best cuts or catch of the day, and what to do with them.FLOWER POWER Freestyle, dramatic floral arrangements that look almost wild and incorporate more 'natural' rather than conventionally pretty flowers are all the rage these days. But it's likely that today's florists take their cue from Saskia Havekes, the Sydney-based flower 'curator' who created her signature look way back in 1995.The Culina shop is her first overseas Grandiflora outlet, although Ms Havekes has retailed her line of fragrances in Singapore through Club 21.You can expect to see the same design principles in the arrangements, although adapted to suit the local heat. ''It will create a few restrictions in terms of materials but we will find a way around it,'' says Ms Havekes. You won't find just flowers at the shop but ''larger s... https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/lifestyle/food-drink/designer-gourmet

Florist jailed - Milford Mercury

A florist has been jailed after failing to keep in contact with the probation service. Eric Evans, also known as Reuben O’Dell, of Stratford Street, Milford Haven, appeared at Haverfordwest magistrates court on Tuesday, April 9. He admitted failing to comply with a suspended sentence order made by the court in November 2016. Julie Norman of the probation service told the court that Evans, 31, had previously been sentenced to 16 weeks in prison, suspended for 12 months, following a conviction for driving while disqualified and without insurance in November 2016. The court heard that a warrant was issued for Evans’ arrest when he failed to keep in contact with his supervising officer. Mrs Norman added that Evans’ whereabouts had been unknown for 17 months. Jonathan Webb, defending, said Evans had kept to the order until the end of August 2017, despite a period of being homeless, and had not ‘gone to ground’ as suggested. “He has been in Milford Haven and the surrounding area through... https://www.milfordmercury.co.uk/news/17571268.florist-jailed/
