Flowers are a passion for Hannah Warfield at Brown's Floral Design - Thetribunepapers
Sunday, February 11, 2018Hannah either grows them herself or supports a number of local famers like the Never Ending Flower Farm of Kurt & Loretta Ball in Barnardsville or the Flourish Flower Farm in Candler by Niki and William Irving. Of course their floral offerings change with the season, but the flower quality is exceptional. The blooms haven’t traveled for weeks to get to this area so will undoubtedly stay fresh and last longer. She particularly likes to incorporate fragrant flowers, such as garden roses, lily of the valley, lilacs and sweet peas. She has found that many of her customers react to a particular fragrance that remind them of something from their past—their grandmother’s garden, walking on a path in their childhood, or a place they visited.Planning and organizing the floral arrangements for weddings has become a big part of her work life these days. The incredible beauty of this area combined with some wonderful resorts and hotels has made Western North Carolina to become known as a “destination place for weddings.” Brides come here throughout the year, but particularly from April through November. Hannah has helped brides and their families plan weddings at many local venues, including the Inn at Blackberry Cove and Claxton Farm. Each bride has her own ideas of what she would like to have on that special day, perhaps with a favorite color palette or favorite flower. Hannah works closely with the family, so that the flowers express that personal touch and still remain within budget. She and her staff work meticulously and plan every detail beforehand to convey the desired mood and tone to add beauty and elegance to the wedding and reception.Of course Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and there is still time to take advantage of a 15 percent discount on any order placed before Feb.7. For possible gifts and their prices, just go to www.brownsfloraldesign.com. However, the store no longer works with a wire service, such as Teleflora or FTD, all arrangements are custom and locally created. Flower deliveries are made to the greater Asheville area, most of Buncombe County and parts of Madison County—for an additional charge. Hannah sells a variety of cut flowers in her shop, as well as unique vases, rare orchids, succulents, and other botanical treasures. If you are stopping by to pick up a pastry at Well Bred Bakery, why not just cross the street to take home a rose or bouquet for the dining table? You would be sure to make a great hit at home! The winter hours for the store are 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. Tues-Thurs, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. Saturday. More information can be found on the website: www.brownsfloraldesign.com, or call (828) 645-6544. http://www.thetribunepapers.com/2018/02/01/flowers-are-a-passion-for-hannah-warfield-at-browns-floral-design/

As virus spreads, some local funerals shift online - Wakeweekly
Thursday, April 02, 2020Gordon said. “We are practicing social distancing and are keeping everything thoroughly sanitized.”As cases of COVID-19 continue to grow in North Carolina, florists may see fewer of the types of events they service — not just funerals, but also weddings, high school proms and graduations.Ann Calus, owner of Annie’s Flowers in Oxford, is hopeful that the outbreak will have a minor impact on her sales.“Business was slow at the first part of the week, but we started a curbside service and things have picked up quite a bit,” said Calus this week. “I guess people decided that flowers would help brighten up the day.”Kuhn, the funeral director, said while industries may feel the effects of coronavirus, he hopes that won’t include health effects.“Our greatest hope in all of this is just that as many people stay as safe as possible,” Kuhn said. “This includes our community, the families we serve, my staff, and the families that we have at home waiting for us to return to them each night both healthy and safe.“It’s more than a little bit scary that I could be going out and helping others while at the same time bringing this virus home to my wife and small children. So with this in mind, I am happy to adapt to all the changes and safety precautions that are being instituted.” ... http://wakeweekly.com/stories/as-virus-spreads-some-local-funerals-shift-online,204494
Life in coronavirus: A flower farmer innovates; a farmers market opens with caution - Citizen Times
Thursday, April 02, 2020More: Coronavirus: Buncombe releases some jail inmates to reduce risk of virus transmissionBased on recommendations from the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, the Asheville City Market, a primary outlet for Copus, closed March 14.An interim market will open March 21 in the A-B Tech parking lot with a new flow to mitigate virus transmission points and accommodate social distancing. Copus will sell flowers there. There will be no mingling. Shoppers must stay 6 feet apart. They must wait in their cars until they are told to enter the market.In the field, tulips crowd together. Shoulder to shoulder, they push up through the winter mud, turning the field into a tapestry of green spikes, which make Copus think of Pointillism.More: Coronavirus: Buncombe releases some jail inmates to reduce risk of virus transmissionEach tulip bulb costs 40 cents, which means she has thousands of dollars tied up in the field.When the blooms begin to blush, she pries the flowers out of the soil with a pitchfork so the bulb stays intact. They give the bloom a source of food and delight customers anxious to see the riot of colors the spring market brings.Flowers remind us spring is here, and nothing will stop it — not even a pandemic."You can't hide what is impressive about the tulip harvest," Copus said.'We didn't plan on a global pandemic'Copus had huge plans for 2020.She and her husband, the well-known potter Josh Copus, had sights set on triple-digit growth this year.
