Answer:

Wholesale florists receive orders from local florists for all types of flowers and supplies, such as ribbon, containers and foam. The wholesalers then work with domestic and foreign growers to fill these orders as quickly as possible.

A Floral Designer is an artist that uses plant materials and flowers to create pleasing and balanced compositions. They typically design arrangements for weddings, parties and other special events. ... A Florist is a person or business that sells and arranges plants and cut flowers.Mar 15, 2017

As a wholesale florist, you must have a deep understanding of flowers and plants, including how to care for them, how long they can be stored and which plants may be poisonous. You should know when flowers are in season and the best time for their availability. Wholesale florists should also have management skills to supervise employees and coordinate resources, as well as an understanding of basic business concepts involving sales, marketing, profit margins and inventory control. You also need negotiation skills to discuss and establish prices with your suppliers and customers.

Hope this assisted you
