Member of professional groups: Florists who belong to professional groups are committed to being the best in their field. Look for affiliation with national wire services (FTD, Teleflora), national trade associations like the Society of American Florists, state and local trade associations, and local community and civic organizations.
Noble flowers:The four noble plants of the ancient Chinese were the Chrysanthemum, the Orchid, the bamboo, and the plum, and therefore only the upper class Chinese were permitted to grow them in their gardens. Sun protection: North African natives chewed the root of the plant from which the Queen Anne's Lace flower comes from to protect themselves from the sun because it stimulates pigment production in human beings.
