Psychology fascinates me. The way our brains, bodies and emotions all work together feels like a magic that is hard to pin down.
One thing I’ve learned in my time in this industry is that flowers do a lot more for our psyche than we give them credit. As a business owner I understand intimately the struggle to balance the budget. Flowers are often an easy one to drop from the budget. The bottom line is king.
However, the magic that makes us human and makes life enjoyable is the stuff that benefits our businesses more than we realize but hard to quantify.

Common thoughts and something we hear a lot are “Flowers just die”. I want to argue that flowers are very necessary. They can be part of the very magic that takes a business to the next level. Past generations understood the importance of flowers but we have lost that a bit. It is my goal to bring the benefits and importance of flowers back into our consciousness for every age, gender and life moment.

Thank you for hosting, Mia!

Even though I grew up in Portland I have never gone to watch the Grand Floral Parade in person. I know, shocking. Had to do it this year, though, to see the gorgeous centennial celebration float and princesses. Hugs from the support team was also the best. The float was definitely the most unique and beautiful float in the parade, thanks to the Schnitzer family.
We are looking forward to July and some very special planning going on behind the scenes for the column’s centennial celebration!
Also, got to check out a few of the installations around downtown. I was sorry I didn’t have time to see them all.

I believe carnations are one of the most under appreciated flowers, especially among millennials. We remember the 80’s and 90’s over use of pink, white and red carnations. They got labeled with “dated”, “cheap” and “gas station flowers”.
As a professional florist, I want to challenge that mindset. The industry has been working hard to breed some incredible colors in carnations. We now have access to gorgeous varieties that are definitely not your grandma’s carnations. Their long last qualities and affordable prices makes them worthy of a second chance.

This carnation’s name is pairing perfectly with the , and
