Celebrating Member Florist Anniversaries: October – December 2026

As the year enters its final season, we’re proud to celebrate the FTD florists reaching milestone anniversaries in October, November, and December.

From autumn’s rich colors to the warmth and sparkle of the holidays, this season reminds us how florists help communities celebrate life’s most meaningful moments. These anniversaries reflect years of creativity, dedication, and relationships carefully nurtured along the way.

As we close out another year, we’re grateful for the passion and craftsmanship you bring to every season. Thank you for your continued partnership and for being such an important part of the FTD family.

Why Having One E-Commerce Site Is Critical to Your Online Success

As a florist, your website is more than just a digital storefront. It’s often the first impression customers have of your business, the place where orders are placed, and one of your most important revenue-generating tools.

Yet many florists find themselves managing multiple websites, online ordering platforms, social media storefronts, or disconnected systems in an effort to reach more customers. While it may seem like more online locations create more opportunities, the reality is often the opposite.

The most successful online businesses focus their efforts on one well-managed e-commerce site that serves as the central hub for their brand.

Put American Floral Trends® 2027–2028 to Work in Your Shop

Floral trends are about more than knowing which colors are popular. For professional florists, understanding where design and consumer preferences are headed can help inform everything from purchasing and merchandising to social media and everyday design.

That’s the thinking behind American Floral Trends® 2027–2028, recently unveiled by Creative Director J. Keith White AIFD. The new trend report brings together color palettes, styles, and design elements into five collective narratives: ASPIRE, DISCOVER, ENVISION, TRUST, and TRANSFORM. Each offers a different perspective on how floral design can respond to changing consumer desires, while giving florists inspiration they can interpret in ways that make sense for their own businesses.

But how can a two-year trend narrative actually help your flower shop today?
