I am finally here. I have been a florist for forty five years. I learned on the job by some of the best designers and business people around. I have owned my own store with my wife for thirty four years. We have a street level double store with a greenhouse attached in the back. We do all around floristry that includes cash and carry bouquets to high end wedding and funeral designs. We operate three delivery trucks and belong to ftd and teleflora. Our store is lush and beautiful and always stocked with quality flowers and plants. I have been looking for a site like this to share my knowledge and to tap into some other florist for further advancement into our great proffession. I am also interested in getting together and chat about cost cutting ideas for our stores and to adress some of the problems that we face today
