You can leave your home as sophisticated as you want, but nothing will be as beautiful as the natural decoration that the plants offer - and this is especially true about the flowers. Florists have the privilege of carefully organizing these gifts of nature in different forms, according to their imagination.
Erin Benzakein Manages a flower nursery called Floreset Flowers with his family in Skagit Valley, Washington. In 2001, Erin and her husband moved to the Valley region, which is about an hour north of Seattle. They went there to get a simpler and peaceful lifestyle to raise their children.
Erin actually spent most of his childhood in his great-grandfather's house, where she developed love for nature. She decided to return to the roots with her children. Many people who live in the city are now thinking of doing the same. There is a certain spiritual power in being surrounded by nature.
She started with a small garden in the backyard before Floret explodes on an educational nursery and a seed company. Then strangers began to order Benzakein flowers, although she never intended to sell them. When she sold her first bouquet, the client cried with the memories of the summers of her childhood.
Seeing a floral arrangement bringing back such emotions and connecting two people who did not know if Erin wanted to follow this career. The following year, she replaced all her vegetables for flowers and did the same with the orchard.
On her website, there are many guides of procedures and cultivation resources for those who are learning about flowers. They also have a large international producer network so you can order beautiful flowers, no matter where more.
Although the goal is to create avibe Onírica, Floret's initiative is fully aimed at science and research. They spend many hours doing tests to develop the best in flowers, with high-level stem, aroma and other qualities that make you feel like you were in the secret garden.
After his first book,A year in flowers, it was a tremendous success in the list of the New York Times and beyond, the second book,A year in flowers: Designing beautiful arrangements for each station It was the sequence, including beautiful photography and design techniques for different seasonal arrangements. Now, they are working on a new book dedicated to the dahlias.
Now that we know the history of transformation behind this epic nursery, let's see some of the most incredible arrangements that seem to carry us to a different planet.
These beautiful zinias in pastel tones were created with the goal of developing varieties in all colors and shapes. We would say she's doing a certain job!
Would not you love to wake up with this vision every morning? This is a dahlias breeding bed, and these babies are huge. The secret of your huge size? According to legend, good soil and lots of love.
If red roses are not your beach, you will get crazy with these honey dijon roses in reddish tones and caramel. We are obsessed with the name, the color and the perfect blossoming of petals that these roses reach. We imagine how wonderful it should be the aroma ...
We love the organization of the photos of the benzakins - this is a sweet pea rainbow, which shows us a range of stunning color petals, irrigated orange to adorable lavender. Can we ask for a wall so instead of the fake brick wallpaper in our living room?
These zinias are usually easy to cultivate, but Erin wanted to work in varieties of cultivation that are usually difficult for the gardeners, such as butter cream, raspberry, chocolate, soft peach and champagne. We can find most of these colors in this bouquet.
Even if you do not love yellow, it's hard not to get obsessed with this gold bouquet, or as Erin says, "the first steady in the season." Would this be the feeling of embracing the sun? Those little ones with orange centers are our true love, but we are not sure how they are called. Let's leave this for flower professionals.
