Noon-12:45 p.m. The Art of Pot-et-Fleur, A Large-Scale Design Demonstration With Plants, Cut Flowers, and Foliage
Lori Poliski is reviving the lost art of Pot-et-Fleur, an iconic floral design historically defined as “living arrangements with plants, cut flowers, and foliage.” Having originated in 17th Century France and continuing through the Victorian era, the design style offers today’s florists a contemporary, sustainable, and long-lasting method of designing with local and seasonal ingredients. “This method is so flexible because it uses living plants with cut flowers,” Lori says. With potted ferns, cut flowers, and other foliage, Lori will demonstrate her approach to designing a large-scale Pot-et-Fleur, including plant sourcing, selection, and care.
