Summary
Join Yvonne Ashton and David Dahlson for an exciting episode of Mornings with Mayesh as they unveil two game-changing updates for the floral industry. First, David introduces Mayesh's newest farm partner, Designer Cut Flowers from Guatemala, and their stunning collection of cymbidium orchids. These blooms fill the seasonal gap between New Zealand and Holland's availability, offering florists gorgeous fall colors including burgundies, golds, yellows, and two-tones—perfect for autumn weddings and events. With 8-11 blooms per stem and professional Dutch-style packaging, these orchids are a must-have for your designs. Then, David shares his hands-on review of OASIS® Renewal™ Floral Foam—the plant-based innovation the floral community has been waiting for. Made entirely from renewable resources with a 56% lower carbon footprint than traditional petroleum-based foam, this sustainable alternative hydrates faster, holds stems securely, and works with all stem types. David discusses its performance, compostability, and why this is an important step toward more sustainable floral design. Whether you're looking for beautiful new blooms or eco-conscious design solutions, this episode delivers practical insights and exciting new options for your floral business.
