Flowers not made in a bouquet?

So I seem to be having a major dumb moment... I got the idea of making a birthday cake out of wet floral foam and fresh flowers.... only thing is now I can%26#039;t figure out where to go to buy flowers not already made into a bouquet.





Also, how do florists get started? Is there florist school? See what I mean, major dumb moment going on!!





Heck, its Friday! I%26#039;ve got an excuse!

Flowers not made in a bouquet?
go to your grocery store floral department. You can get bunches of flowers, in a bouquet or not. Ours has stems of tulips, in groups of 7, I think. Carnations, daffodils, or alstromeria...which last a long time.
Reply:Most major stores such as grocery stores and WalMarts, KMarts etc. have single flowers that you can buy. Most floral shops also have singles that you can buy. As far as training, check with your large floral shops. In Illinois, it was Amling%26#039;s. Most of these large distributors offer classes and training. Also check your local community college or Adult Education. Most of these colleges will offer classes in what you are talking about. It is not a dumb question, you are looking for an answer to something that interests you. That%26#039;s what were here to do...answer you.
Reply:any local flower shop will sell you cut flowers loose. Just because they wrap them in paper to look nice doesn%26#039;t mean you can%26#039;t take it apart! buy the bouquet anyway and taKE IT APART
