Today’s episode features a takeover of our popular weekly live Q&A session on Instagram, called Ask a Flower Farmer. However, this one we called Ask a Florist featured guest hostess Ellen Frost of Local Color Flowers in Baltimore, MD.

Ellen is a floral designer who creates exclusively with flowers and foliage purchased from local growers. She is also one of our course instructors here at The Gardener’s Workshop.

In this Q&A Ellen fielded questions about: farmer-florist relationships, design tips for weddings, marketing flowers to florists, must-have greenery for bouquets, planning wedding florals, and pricing your flowers, among others.
