Shotwell Florist & Greenhouse is steeped in flowers year round, but that doesn't mean we don't appreciate a good floral destination!

Attending one of these events is a great way to engage with local culture, and it also falls under the purview of "experiential travel," or, a trip you take to immerse yourself in another way of life. Below, we've rounded up some of the flower events you might want to make a trek to next year. Read More about The Best Floral Festivals To Visit Next Year »
