RECENT EVENTS

Congratulations to FernTrust's own Bobbi Ecker. She recently won the Iron Designer contest held last month the 2008 Super Floral Show in Orlando, Florida. She attributed the win to the Fabulous Foliage she used in her design. Congrats Bobbi!

FernTrust Fabulous Foliage got the privilege of being used by AIFD designer Conrad Quijas. Take a look at his amazing designs...Now, that is FABULOUS! The dresses are made from ColorFresh Roebellini in Chocolate, Green Ti leaves and FernCool Leatherleaf.

Take a look at what our customers have to say:

Precious Memories is extremely pleased with the FernTrust greenery bouquets. Our introduction to the bouquets at a wholesale seminar in Austin, Texas three years ago resulted in Precious Memories immediately incorporating the use of the bouquets into our everyday designs. The FernTrust greenery bouquets became a staple and standing order for the store overnight. Precious Memories design staff reduces the amount of time required to mix greenery and there is no waste of greenery or forecasting the mixes. Cost of goods is easily calculated by ordering and forecasting the bouquets for arrangements. The simplicity of using the bouquets is especially efficient during busy seasons such as Valentines and Mother's Day. Assembly line production can easily be established with the preassembled drops. Precious Memories strongly recommends the use of the FernTrust greenery bouquets for large and small florists to use daily.
