Daisies in the Greenhouse

Last week, we were privileged to host a group of Daisy Girl Scouts for their investiture ceremony. Our greenhouse stage was the garden backdrop for this troop from Randle Elementary School to take their first steps into the world of Girl Scouts.

I hope they come back and sell us cookies!

Holly Jolly Open House Nov. 7-8

Just a reminder to all our blog readers that this weekend is Holly Jolly Open House. Saturday 8-5 and Sunday 10-4. We are featuring great design shows, free flowers and refreshments, kids activities and lots of nice sales. So after those leaves are raked, come and join us in the greenhouse!

Fall Permanent Display -Milwaukee Emergency Animal Center

It's great to decorate for the seasons, whether it's at home or in your business. These permanent arrangements of birch, foliage, pumpkins, gourds with just a touch of flowers will last for years to come. They were built to be easily set into and taken out of the planters at this emergency animal clinic, allowing for a quick change to winter, spring or summer. If you would like to change your look seasonally, give Waukesha Floral a call!

Bat Mitzvah Flowers

Here are the wall pieces Denise designed for the Bat Mitzvah this past weekend. She used a nice mix of palm fronds, ti leaves, fingerleaf philodendron, roses, gerbera daisies and orchids to provide beauty and interest to the walls in the Temple. Also pictured are the party flowers using colored cubes in the sculpted vases. I love the colors and creativity for this very joyous occasion!

Noah's Ark

It's been raining so much this week, it may be time to build an ark! Speaking of which, we have some great arks at Waukesha Floral. They're decorative and beautifully painted. Each is a little different... there's a 3-story ark, a big barn ark, a hayloft ark, a Sunday toy ark, to name a few. The real fun comes in playing with the animals! They include two elephants, two giraffes, 2 bears, 2 hippos, birds... a menagerie which is fun to arrange. And I can't forget there's a happy little Noah in each ark too. Come by and see them sometime!

Bat Mitzvah Flowers

We are designing flowers for a Bat Mitzvah at the Congregation Emanu-El of Waukesha this weekend. The bright combination of hot pink Gerbera daisies, bright green hydrangea and the softer pink roses is so striking and perfect for the 13 year old girl who will celebrate! I will post some incredible wall pieces for the temple after they are completed.
