How to Grow Cool Season Flowers in Central Florida

About this event

Friday, November 6, 2020

10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

Instructor: Eileen Tongson

This workshop is for students who have previously attended one of FarmGal Flowers’ cut flower & seed propagation classes. Eileen, the FarmGal, will share her favorite cool season flowers for the advanced gardener and how to grow them in our unique zone. These are some of her all-time favorites including lisianthus, ranunculus, strawflower, snapdragons, foxgloves, delphinium, and more. Under Eileen’s tutelage, you will learn to get a head start on your Spring cutting garden and grow a bounty of beautiful and unique flowers to create your own bouquets. Students will take home seeds and/or plugs. Please bring a Sharpie. All other materials included.

Eileen Tongson is the owner of FarmGal Flowers (farmgalflowers.com), an urban flower farm and design studio. She is also one of the gardeners at East End Market where she grows flowers and helps maintain the market garden. In addition to growing her own flowers, Eileen designs with them and provides arrangements for special occasions and events. Eileen completed the University of Florida IFAS Master Gardener Program and has studied floral design at numerous locations over the years including Floret Flower Farm and Flower School New York.

Eileen is also a Gardening and Floral Design instructor at Harry P. Leu Gardens and East End Market. Her flowers and gardening expertise have been featured in Flower Magazine, Edible Orlando, Florists’ Review, Slow Flowers, and Floret Flower Farm’s book “Small Plot: Big Impact.” Eileen was voted Best Florist in Best of Winter Park 2019. Collaborations have included The Ford Motor Company, Williams-Sonoma Winter Park, the Orlando Museum of Art, and the Orlando Magic. She continues to expand and refine her skills regularly through floral design/flower farming workshops across the country and as a member of the Association of Specialty Cut Flower Growers.

Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are available to FNGLA Certified Professionals upon request.
