Tuesday, February 21, 2017GAYLORD — There is a flower for almost every occasion and Betsy Berry of Gaylord’s Twigs ‘N Blooms said she enjoys the thought of people giving the gift of flowers.“When somebody gets flowers, they’re just so pleased that you thought about (them) enough to order them,” Berry said. “This is such a contrast to what I did for 26 years (before) —if I didn’t enjoy it so much I wouldn’t do it.”Berry, 75, loves flowers, is a hands-on Master Gardener and 22 years ago started the garden center and flower shop located at 4469 Old 27 South.Before opening Twigs ‘N Blooms, she was a bookkeeper in the food industry with A&P/Farmer Jack supermarket. Then she had to make a decision when the business closed locations in the state.“When they pulled out of the last store in the north, I decided to open (this shop), to do something I wanted to do,” Berry said. “The flower business is much more gratifying than the food business, believe me.”Berry had two florist shops at the same time — the other in Ha... http://www.petoskeynews.com/gaylord/featured-ght/top-gallery/gaylord-florist-shares-loves-of-her-craft/article_4d59b3fa-c5bc-5f52-a4b0-70389dbbb998.html

Story continues below advertisement Justice Simpson said Mr. Armstrong, who was 61, fell down and hit his head on a corner of another kiosk after he was punched six times by Mr. Cushnie. Sharon Armstrong, who was married to her husband for 37 years, said in a victim impact statement during Mr. Cushnie’s sentencing hearing earlier Monday that the morning of April 17, 2018, was a normal one as her husband headed off to work at their family-owned business. “In a few hours, my world would collapse,” she said, explaining she received a phone call from one of their employees and immediately called her husband’s brother and business partner. When she arrived at the mall, she saw the building surrounded by emergency vehicles, she said. “I felt my heart drop,” she told court. She was diverted to the University of Alberta Hospital, where she was met by police and called her son and daughter to meet her. “We were all so scared and confused,” said Ms. Armstrong, who added that doctors started using words like “dire, catastrophic” to describe her husband’s injuries. The family decided to take him off life support three days later.

Below are 10 tips from some of our favorite Southern florists on how to extend the life of your flowers as well as suggestions for 10 fresh-cut flowers that last the longest.A few simple tips can extend the life of your fresh-cut flowers.Pro Tip #1: Shop local.We’re all about supporting local businesses, but aside from helping to boost the local economy, shopping at local florists can also extend the life of flowers. Sarah Marshall, owner and lead florist of Gaia Florals in Birmingham, AL, says, “The quality [of locally purchased flowers] is typically far superior, and the flowers haven’t traveled across the world before they’re in your home.” We’re sold.Pro Tip #2: Check for signs of age and mishandling.When choosing flowers, the first step is checking them for signs of damage. Bruises, yellowed or browning leaves, and crushed or wilted petals are a sign they’ve already been sitting out for an extended period, which dramatically shortens their lifespan in your home.

The Best Gift for a Flower Lover Is Moda Operandi's Flash Flower Box - TownandCountrymag.com
Monday, August 24, 2020The box is a collaboration between Moda Operandi Co-Founder Lauren Santo Domingo and Lewis Miller, florist extraordinaire and the man behind the exuberant flower arrangements that have shown up around New York City, bursting out of trash cans and perched next to subway entrances. Each box—there are two you can choose from, Country Wildflower, or Beach Bloom—contains enough blooms for several generous arrangements. They're also accompanied by a series of breezy instructional videos starring Miller himself, explaining how to trim, hydrate, and arrange your flowers.The gift here is not just the gorgeous blossoms but the chance to spend an hour arranging them. My box arrived, neatly packed with 15 creamy white peonies, 10 stems of upright bouvardia, 10 stems of soulful, green helleborus, and 20 stems of cheerful white spray roses. I arrayed my collection of vases, pulled out my clippers, and for a brief moment in time I thought about nothing more than color, proportion, and the balance of green and white. It was a tonic. Here's a sampling of my handiwork: Elizabeth Angell(My only complaint is that I do not own a lazy susan for properly positioning my vase as I work to fill it. I may have to upgrade my set up for future floral-arranging sessions.)The incredible arrangements are available for one more week; a Standard Box is $265 and a Delux is $425. Even better, Moda Operandi will donate $15 from the sale of each Standard Box and $25 from each Deluxe Box to The Loveland Foundation, in support of its mission to bring opportunity and mental health services to Black women, girls, and communities of color. div clas... https://www.townandcountrymag.com/style/home-decor/a32910308/moda-operandi-lewis-miller-flash-flower-box/
