Scotts Flowers visits Holland



Last week, myself and my father, Robert Palliser Sr. were foruntate enough to take a trip to Holland last week. The Netherlands is considered the top country with the finest flowers of the world. Absolutely exquisite flora and world renowned. This is also where Scotts Flowers gets most of their flowers imported from! The trip consisted of our suppliers showing us the flower growing and purchasing process (considered the "auction"), growers in the area, and the FloraHolland Trade Fair Aalsmeer 2011. 

Below are pictures of some of the best growers in Holland. Absolutely amazing!

For three days the FloraHolland Trade Fair Aalsmeer will be the place for the floriculture industry to do business. Exporters, wholesalers and their domestic and foreign customers can find a comprehensive range of flowers, plants, product concepts, trend presentations and new products. This year, the trade fair will be expanded once again and in total, there will be more than 650 growers' stands as well as a number of themed plazas. Below are pictures from the FloraHolland Trade Fair Aalsmeer.

Wedding at the Central Park Boathouse

This past Columbus Day weekend, Scotts Flowers had the pleasure of creating a beautiful wedding at the Central Park Boathouse. The weather was absolutely amazing. The lovely couple surely enjoyed a gorgeous weekend in the park.

The elegant flower arrangements went hand in hand with the weather. The flowers included exquise mango callas, white tulips, red dahlias, and gold cymbidiums. The atmosphere was truly incredible. Take a look at the pictures below which captured the beauty. Pictures by Steve Worth Photography!
