Floral Design Day was created as a unique way to celebrate a special birthday of Carl Rittner, the founder of the Rittners School of Floral Design in Boston over 60 years ago. Mr. Rittner, a pioneer in floral art education, inspired the members of the Schools to celebrate floral design as an art form! Later, in 1995, Governor William F. Weld of Massachusetts, proclaimed this day as Floral Design Day!
From majestic, historic gardens to a bridal bouquet on that special day, floral designers have an eye for color, style and perspective. Floral design can complete a space, complementing existing structures and bringing brightness and colour to them.
