Behind the Blooms
Monday, April 16, 2012

Being the largest florist in South Carolina, we produce a lot of waste. As we are never finished finding a better way to do things, what is the best thing to do with it? Recycle it, of course.This pile of flowers and cuttings looks like garbage, but it is picked up on a weekly basis and turned into a Grade A mulch to be used by home owners all over the Charleston area. What used to go in a landfill, is now filling the best gardens in Charleston.





The mulch to be stands in contrast with this beautiful shipment of  Asiatic Lilies we received today. These Asiatic Lilies will be blooming in the lobbies of The Double Tree Hotel and The Francis Marion Hotel downtown, and The Sanctuary on Kiawah Island.
