LRMA Garden Lecture - Florists to the Field
Lauren Rogers Museum of Art, along with The Laurel Garden Club, will present its annual Garden Lectureon Thursday, Feb. 28 at 10:30 a.m. at the Museum. Greg Campbell and Erick New, co-owners of Garden District in Memphis, Tenn. and co-authors of “Florists to the Field,” will be the featured speakers.
From plant breeders and flower farmers, to importers and exporters, to markets worldwide, Campbell and New have navigated a vibrant labyrinth of activity together for 25 years. The curation of products in their Memphis showroom represents Garden District’s connection to floriculture across the United States and abroad. In turn, “Florists to the Field” is their tribute to the fellowship they share with specialty farmers and colleagues in the floral industry. From the Deep South to the West Coast, through the Midwest and across the ocean to Holland, these are the places where they find inspiration.
