My handy floristry bookmarks


  • Chain of Life Network - A wonderful collection of well-researched horticultural information. Includes information for growers and florists.
  • E-Jay Trading's Online Floristry Course - a very detailed blog written by a talented florist and floristry trainer named Evie
  • Ezy Bouquet - real florists hate this idea, but the whole notion of 'recipes' makes me think rather logically about what I include in a bouquet and why. Call it revision of the elements and principles of design,...
  • Flora's Feast - a Cafepress store with gorgeous floral designs
  • Florist Susan Avery - provides some nice fact sheets and useful information
  • Florists' Review 101 Wedding Bouquets - a preview of an inspirational floristry book via google books
  • Florists' Review - site of the well established American floral industry magazine. Good source of inspiration and brief instructions. Click on 'In this issue' to access previews of current and past issues.
  • Floriculture Australia - Fresh flower grower / wholesaler with great website and some useful care information.
  • Flower Arrangement Advisor - Great general theory & tips on floristry
  • Flowergoss - It's like Facebook for Florists. Cool.
  • Flowers On Board - Floristry wholesaler with some good photos of plants and a broad range of products
  • Hidden Garden Flowers
  • Open Directory of Flower / Greenery Wholesalers
  • Market Fresh Flowers Page - wonderful flower care information direct from the Melbourne Flower Markets. Nice. Specific to Australia, or should I say, the cooler southern states of Australia.
  • Ray's Florist Blog - lots of good information and tutorials.
  • Save on Crafts - a handy site with lots of floristry tutorials
  • Super Floral Retailing - monthly magazine previews include good flower care information and design ideas.
  • There's also a site called ubloom, google it if you're still after floristry information and none of my other bookmarks have helped you. Frankly, they rate a mention but not a link. They have a bit of information but mostly it's just a big fat ad.
  • Visions of Silk Blog - tips on working with artificial flowers
