Fleur Créatif - Spring 2012

About spring flowers and love …

Spring is a wonderful season. After a dark winter with cosy holidays and nature being at rest, it is time for some action again. Spring tickles give us renewed energy. The new year starts with fresh colours, typical spring materials… Days are getting longer again and the desire for the first warm sunrays is growing day after day.

Tulips in the spotlights

Nowadays tulips are available in quite a lot of variations in terms of colours and shapes. The tulip is a peculiar spring flower with specific characteristics. We hereby present a number of arrangements where the tulip is the key element.
Creative with cowslips, plant arrangements that will last throughout the spring

Cowslips are really typical spring flowers. They are available in all kinds of fresh spring colours. Also the less known botanic species are used more and more frequently.

CREATIONS Talent!

Talent! is a new initiative launched by Fleur Créatif in order to support and stimulate young florists of 18 to 25 years of age. 10 passionate flower binders were selected from the participants at the ‘Fleur Cup Young Talent’ contest. Throughout a period of one year they will be following a floral circuit. They will be offered workshops and develop experience with our leading partners and at our events. At Fleuramour 2012 in Alden Biesen the best three will compete against one another to decide who will win the ‘Fleur Créatif Junior’ award.
