What’s new in the world of flowers?? What’s going to be hot and in demand?
Here’s my list:
The beautiful White O’Hara garden rose available at Mayesh.com
The newest variety of Stargazer Lily, drawing us into it’s amazing petal structure. Available through Stevens & Son Wholesale
Transflora/DVFG has added this beauty to their list of offerings. Its name is Jiuhbao Sweetie and it offers enormous blooms & flawless color. No surprise it won SAF’s Outstanding Varieties Competition at the annual Convention which took place in Orlando, FL this past September. Find out more at Transflora’s website.
What do you think of these beauties?? Any flowers you know of that you think will be hot for 2011?
The Wall Street Journal thinks that carnations are making a comeback:
Now if they would just bring the fragrance back in them they might be viable, if only massed together as the only flower in an arrangement.
oops! Here’s the article: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304410504575560360543473040.html?mod=WeekendHeader_Rotator
Great article, we linked to it last Friday in our Fleur Friday post. I hope it’s right & that the versatile Carnation is coming back. I personally used them quite a bit in the 2010 wedding season. Do you use them often?

on another side note, I’m pleased to see how many florists read The Wall Street Journal.
Once again, thank you for your support!
