How did you get started in the floral business, and why did you stick with it? Steve Hadden, who previously owned Hadden’s Flower Gallery in Old Town Fort Collins, and my mother encouraged me to start designing and felt like I had a great talent for it. I enjoy what I do and have a passion for it. 3. What kind of training, skill and knowledge is needed to create floral arrangements? Knowledge of plants and flowers and when they are in season, artistic talent with colors, lines and capturing the eye. I also have taken a lot of master design classes from designers all over the world. 4. What’s the busiest day and the busiest season for flower delivery? Valentine’s Day is the busiest day because it is one day to get hundreds of arrangements out. Mother’s Day is the busiest week because people will send flowers, plants and gifts all week. 5. What tips can you give for keeping cut flowers fresher longer? Don’t believe the fads! Just be sure to keep the water full. We send packets with flower food.

It’s a no-brainer stop in Fort Collins if you love flowers — located at 1401 Remington Street. This local garden is not so much about making the landscaping like a special environment. I saw that at the famous Butchart Gardens in British Columbia, where reality becomes a fairyland. img loading="lazy" class="size-large wp-image-115269" src="http://northfortynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/CSU-Annual-Flower-Trial-Garden-Photo-by-Tim-Van-Schmidt-3-1024x768.jpg" alt width="1024" height="768" srcset="https://northfortynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/CSU-Annual-Flower-Trial-Garden-Photo-by-Tim-Van-Schmidt-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https://northfortynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/CSU-Annual-Flower-Trial-Garden-Photo-by-Tim-Van-Schmidt-3-600x450.jpg 600w, https://northfortynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/CSU-Annual-Flower-Trial-Garden-Photo-by-Tim-Van-Schmidt-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https://northfortynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/CSU-Annual-Flower-Trial-Garden-Photo-by-Tim-Van-Schmidt-3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https://northfortynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/CSU-Annual-Flower-Trial-Garden-Photo-by-Tim-Van-Schmidt-3-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https://northf...
