Choices will include: mums, ornamental grasses, kale and cabbage, rudbeckia, celosia, asters, fall pansies, calluna (heather) and more. Our staff will help you design the best look for your project!

NEW for 2025! In a 6” square, sleek black ceramic planter participants will position a waxed amaryllis which will bloom in time for the holidays (fingers crossed, bloom timing is tricky). Surrounding it fresh floral foam will be added and mixed evergreens will fill in the space, giving a lush look. The final touch will be accents to finish the project to your personalized style, leaning to a clean, modern theme, with tipped pinecones, dogwood, sparkly sticks and more. Once all materials arrive, a photo of the completed project will be posted.
