Supplemented with seasonal foliage grown right here in Cheshire by a local flower farm, learn how to use natural mechanics to hold the flowers in a sparkling glass cube container without floral foam and encourage your flowers to tell their own story, inspired by the beautiful books at the new store, and listening to a short story from the book, Tulips Talk…Are You Listening?
