Flower Discoveries: Ugliest New Flower of 2020

2020 was a weird year for the world: a pandemic, quarantine, toilet paper shortages, the ugliest new flower… yes your read that right! Jesse discovered a list of newly found and named wildlife—one of which is the ugliest new flower! You can take a look at the alien-like bloom here!

We’re also chatting about stabilized flowers: what they are and how to use them! And, Jacelyn is asking a few questions about dahlia growing and breeding, seeds, and tubers!

Special Guest: Sara Wade

Sara is a long-time friend of Team Flower and is joining Kelly to chat about a much-needed topic: contentment! Listen in to their light-hearted but intentional conversation and hear about the following:

• Determining your niche

• Interior design background: How to direct clients into an experience and moment as a designer

• Importance of scheduling

• Setting goals for your business—not for someone else’s

Sara's business is called Garden Party. She primarily does wedding and event work as well as does occasional freelancing with a larger event company. The thing she loves most about working with flowers is doing big installations. She hasn't done many, but is always looking for opportunities to bring a big magical statement to a wedding or event! See her beautiful work on her website or on social media at @sarasgardenparty.
