My name is Doug Lindamood, I have been envolved in the floral industry for 28 years. As a designer, salesperson, buyer, and marketing executive both in retail and wholesale operations, I have experienced the Flower business from every angle. Currently I do all the buying and manage the design room for George's Flowers in Roanoke, VA. We are a tradition Florist in the sense that we don't specialize in one segment of the business. We do focus on nicer design, but being in a "value" oriented market can't take it to extreme.
