Ask Marginpar: A Glimpse Behind The Petals

Being a great floral designer is so much more than creating beautiful pieces. Here at Learn Joseph Massie we care about where our flowers come from and are fascinated by every part of the process.

"Ask Marginpar” is a brand new video series from one of our favourite flower growers that gives you an insider’s look at the wonderful world of flowers!

Join Marginpar's floral investigators, as they explore everything from new varieties of flowers to the science of cultivation.

Discover every part of the process from the soil to the packing room.
What makes a great quality flower?
How placing people at the heart of growing benefits the stems you get to design with.

Get ready to learn, be inspired, and experience the beauty of flowers like never before.
