We’re still buzzing from the beauty and impact of the “Gardens of Tomorrow – Welcoming Wildlife Home” installation at the 2025 Philadelphia Flower Show—and now we have the photos to prove just how magical it really was. A huge congratulations once again to Jennifer Reed of @jenniferdesignsevents and the full design team on winning Best in Show. It was an honor to sponsor this inspiring display with our Butterfly Ranunculus, freshly grown at our California farms. What makes this project so special is the sheer collaboration behind it—from floral designers and artists to sound designers, landscape experts, and sustainability advocates. Everyone came together to create a garden that not only stuns visually, but tells a story of biodiversity and coexistence. ??

WFFSA FDC Miami Recap – Proud Petal Sponsors! ???? We’re back from WFFSA FDC Miami, and what an incredible event it was!

Trzuskowski, and Madison Milgard, MBA—kicked off the week at the Trump Doral golf tournament (big shoutout to Albert for earning a spot at LIV Golf! ???♂?), participated in insightful industry roundtable discussions, and connected with so many great partners. We also celebrated Tim Dewey (DVFlora) on his LTK award, explored practical AI applications for sales, and wrapped things up with an unforgettable yacht party—karaoke, shark bull, and all! ???? A huge thank you to WFFSA for an amazing event. Can’t wait to see everyone again next year! #WFFSA #FDCMiami #PetalSponsors #FloralIndustry #ConferenceRecap #Networking #GolfTournament #YachtParty #ContinentalFloralGreens
