The Best Florists in New York - Curbed
Wednesday, March 31, 2021Photo-Illustration: by Curbed; Photos Getty Images Since 1985, our annual “Best of New York” issue has named standout services, unique shops, and special spots in dozens of categories. Now that Curbed is part of New York’s family, we have reimagined “Best of New York” as an ever-expanding resource that could rival Yelp in usefulness but feels more like a secret Google doc that gets passed among friends. To find the places recommended on these lists, we polled hundreds of stylish and savvy New Yorkers and begged them to tell us their go-tos. The result: our own Yellow Pages, containing only excellent places.

Have You Spotted the Giant Floral Displays Popping Up Around the City? - Pittsburgh Magazine
Wednesday, March 31, 2021Tommy Hilfiger and Dolce & Gabbana, Dickson says she came up with the idea for the installations after seeing florist Lewis Miller Design’s “Flower Flash” project in New York City. In February, she installed her first display, wrapping garlands of flowers around the columns of Shadyside’s Family House — which provides a “home away from home” for patients and their families seeking medical treatment in Pittsburgh. “To all of the healthcare workers and all of the patients and their families, this one’s for you!” Dickson wrote on Instagram of the project. Later that month, she spruced up her hometown area, coating a light pole and corner on Brilliant Avenue in Aspinwall with flowers. In early March, she struck again, creating an enormous bouquet atop a recycling bin on Penn Avenue and 21st Street in the Strip District. Beside the display, she used sidewalk chalk to quote French artist Henri Matisse’s famous line, “There are always flowers for those who want to see them.” Dickson told the Post-Gazette the recycling can project was particularly inspired because the already-cut flowers — from supplier BW Wholesale Florist in the Strip District — would have been thrown away had she not repurposed them. If you missed any of the installations, your chances of catching one have not wilted. The pop-up displays will continue to sprout up across the city, possibly through April, Dickson says — and suggestions as to where are welcome.

Nanan creates flower arrangements to last a lifetime - Korea JoongAng Daily
Wednesday, March 31, 2021The enthusiastic response was even beyond my expectation. Nanan's window painting on display in Lower East Side, New York in 2007. The major popularity of “Long Long Time Flower” could lead to plagiarism. Are you concerned about that? I’ve already seen copycats! My Instagram followers keep me informed of such cases. As I learned from the painful experience with my window paintings before, I have already obtained a patent for my “Long Long Time Flower” including its concept and its title. I politely warned the copycats and then they withdrew their works. After my window paintings earned popularity, some people began to draw on windows in a very similar style and with a simi... https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/2021/03/31/culture/artsDesign/Nanan-Nanan-Kang-Long-Long-Time-Flower/20210331162800400.html
