Shades of Purple Wedding

Jun 6 12{ Comments Off }

Today is design day at COLOR Chicago.  Tomorrow’s wedding consists of  lavender and dark purple Stock flowers from Santa Paula, California. Purple Hydrangea direct from Holland. ‘Ocean Song’ roses, a beautiful lavender, from Columbia.

The pleasing clove-like scent of Stock fills the room. The perky Purple Hydrangea from Holland await their turn in the design room.

These flowers were harvested from all over the world  earlier this week.  Quickly they were flown  to Miami International Airport. By mid-morning they are  shipped to wholesalers throughout the Midwest. We pick up our orders on Wednesday or Thursday. Thursday and Friday are design days.

The ‘poetry’ of this industry is amazing! All to bring you the joy of flowers on your wedding day.

Stay tuned for pictures to be posted!
