That's an excellent question, Albania! If you asked about the lobby floral design, she used kangaroo paws for the tall elements in the arrangement, and then added yellow craspedia (billy balls) as well. At the base of the design, she added equisetum (which looks like bamboo) in addition to the roses and hypericum berries. We hope this helps and answers your question. Thank you very much for spending some time with us and we look forward to hosting you again soon. Wishing you a peaceful weekend and please take care!

@@FlowerSchool thank you so much

You are most welcome, Albania!

That's an excellent question, Brenda! Actually at AIFD testing, candidates must complete five designs in four hours. Their website explains the scoring and what minimum scores must be both cumulatively across all five designs and individually for each design. You can find that information here under scoring: aifd.org/membership/becoming-aifd/ It was lovely to see you again for Flower School Live and we hope you are doing well these days. Wishing you a joyous week and sending you best wishes too!

That's an interesting suggestion, Alena! Thank you for sharing it with us and for watching our show. The roses are intended to draw your eye down to the base of the floral design and the become the focal point of the arrangement. We do appreciate your feedback and ideas and we hope you will continue to share them. So glad you could spend some time with us and we hope you will visit us again soon. Sending you very best wishes and please have a lovely day doing something you love!
