Prada Introduces Fashionable Floral Arrangements Around the World - Vogue

Resort 2020 collection. Shown at Prada’s New York headquarters, the Resort show was a stripping back of all the fantasy and philosophy that can come from a Prada spectacle, with clothing made in humble cottons and workwear canvases. One of the few motifs in the entire collection was that of wildflowers, embroidered on the sleeves and yokes of folkloric blouses. Now, Prada is continuing its celebration of all things floral with the introduction of seven new flower shop-in-shops around the world. In New York, Milan, Paris, London, Moscow, Shanghai, and Tokyo, the brand has partnered with local florists to create custom Prada bouquets that will be wrapped, of course, in the brand’s Resort 2020 campaign instead of traditional flower paper.In New York, the bouquets will be available at Bethel Food Gourmet in the West Village—and as with any bit of luxury fashion, they will be exclusive and specially made. You see, not just any floral arrangement is Prada-worthy: In keeping with the palette and pared-back theme of the Resort collection, Prada is offering special flowers for its bouquets. Yellow celosias, pink dahlias, white oriental lilies, red celosias, and big sunflowers are what’s on Prada’s floral menu, to name a few, allowing for shoppers to customize the exact arrangement to their taste.

Keep Your Valentine Flowers Looking Their Best - TAPinto.net

Or add a few roses to your bouquet of other colorful flowers.  Once you make your selection, ask the florist to include a packet of floral preservative and wrap your flowers. This protects them from extreme temperatures and jostling during the ride home.Extend the life of your floral gift with a few key steps before placing the flowers in a vase.Remove the lower leaves, so just the leafless stems are sitting in the water. This minimizes bacterial growth that can shorten the vase life of cut flowers. Recut the stems and arrange your blossoms in a clean vase filled with fresh water and floral preservative. Cutting the stems on an angle increases the amount of exposed surface area to absorb water. Change the water, clean the vase if needed, recut the stems and add floral preservative every two to three days. Remove any flowers that have faded to keep your arrangement looking its best. Doing this can double the life of your cut flowers.Further extend the vase life of cut flowers by displaying them in a cool, draft-free location. Or move them to a cooler spot at night and back in a prominent spot during the day.Even if you do everything right, roses sometimes bend or droop at the neck and disappoint. This can happen if they have not received enough water at some point between harvest and your vase.Fortunately, there is a way to revive roses.  Remove the roses from the vase.  Recut the stems and submerge the whole rose – stem, leaves, flowers and all – in a sink or tub of warm water.  Leave the roses submerged for 30 minutes.Clean and refill the vase with fresh water and a bit of floral preservative.  Recut the stems on a slant, underwater if possible, and place the roses back in the vase.  You will have perky fresh roses to enjoy for a week or more.And pick up an additional bouquet for yourself. Fresh flowers are a great way to brighten your home and lift your spirits.Melinda Myers has written numerous books, including Small Space Gardening. She hosts The Great Courses “How to Grow Anything” DVD series and the nationally-syndicated Melinda’s Garden Moment TV & radio program.

After 73 years, this could be Stagemeyer Flower Shop's last Valentine's Day rush - York Daily Record

Guess that's why they call it dragon teeth," she said.  Hinson has been a florist for nearly 50 years — a fitting occupation considering her maiden name was Rose. She began her career in high school at Doyle's Flower Shop in Bedford. It was around the same time she met her husband, Dan. "We were high school sweethearts, and it went from there," she said.  In 1976, the pair left their hometown and made haste toward York. "My brother was living in York at the time, and he convinced me there were a few more opportunities for work out here," Dan said.  Karen got a florist job at Stagemyer Flower Shop in December of that year. Dan picked up work at Miller's Auto Supply in West York. In June of 1977, they purchased the business from Charlotte and Claire Stough. Charlotte's father opened the flower shop in the first floor of their row home in 1947.  "I had no idea what I was getting into," Dan said.  At any given moment, Stagemyers has about 75 varieties of flora. Simple bouquets such as a dozen cuenca roses may take Karen about five minutes to design. Larger, more intricate arrangements could take upwards of 25 minutes. "It's a physical job, and it is a lost art, but it is an art," Karen said.  Come Valentine's Day, the store wi... https://www.ydr.com/story/news/local/2020/02/06/stagemyers-flower-shop-york-could-final-valentines-rush/4655589002/
