What's Up With Becks Florist's New Paint Job? - Peoria Public Radio

If you’ve driven by the Four Corners in downtown East Peoria lately, you’ve probably noticed a new bright spot. Becks Florist, on the corner of Main and East Washington, was recently repainted from beige to an eye-catching shade of yellow.  The new paint job on the prominent building has generated a lot of buzz in the city.  A manager at Becks told a Peoria Public Radio reporter that the business plans to have a large mural painted on the building’s west side, facing towards Main.  The manager declined to describe the mural in any detail because its concept is planned as a surprise for the community by the owner, but said the artist has prepared sketches of the final artwork and will start on it in the next few days. ... https://www.peoriapublicradio.org/post/whats-becks-florists-new-paint-job

Prior to delivery, quality control workers remove any unhealthy flowers, but leave damaged outer-layer petals in place o... https://www.inc.com/magazine/201909/kate-rockwood/urbanstems-seth-goldman-ajay-kori-flower-bouquet-delivery-2019-inc5000.html
