Grow beautiful flowers—and build a meaningful, profitable business from them.
If you've ever dreamed of turning a passion for flowers into a livelihood, Floramama shows you how to grow, design, and sell stunning seasonal bouquets using small-scale, ecological methods that actually work.
From experienced flower farmer Chloé Roy, this practical and visually rich guide brings together biointensive growing, floral artistry, and real-world business strategy—helping you move from garden inspiration to sustainable income.
