A proposito di questo titolo

https://youtu.be/NilyUEdksYA?si=G8oSgsVXGSVQPzlz As a special year-end episode of the Slow Flowers Podcast, you’re invited to join me today in conversation with garden tour producer Lois Moss, and my dear friend, Lorene Edwards Forkner, artist, author, and regular contributor to the Seattle Times. Together, we are planning a one-of-a-kind botanical tour in Spring 2026 – a unique Slow Flowers Experience that takes us to Holland and Belgium in April for a 7-day river boat cruise, plus several optional floral excursions and festivals.Here at Slow Flowers, we declared Floral Tourism a top insight in 2017 and in the subsequent nine years leading up to 2026, the allure of traveling and touring floral and garden destinations has been an important facet of our profession. Part education and research; part rest and retreat, when we visit botanical gardens, flower farms, and floral festivals, there’s something vital about these experiences. Tourism combined with fellow flower and garden lovers enriches our lives far beyond connecting with nature.We’re getting excited and you’re invited to join me on this special tour this coming spring. Seek new inspiration as you engage with the world and explore creative expression in 2026 – and listen on for updates because there’s new pricing just announced for the cruise portion of the tour. Come to Holland and Belgium with Slow Flowers during tulip season! I took my first trip to Amsterdam in 2005 when I joined a press tour for a small group of garden writers during tulip season. It was an unforgettable experience. The flowers, landscapes, and floral designs left a lasting impression on my own aesthetic and deepened my love of bulb gardening and designing with those blooms. Last year, in 2024, I returned, visiting Amsterdam during Dutch Lily Days! That journey greatly influenced my newfound love affair with lily gardening and floral design with lilies.
