๐ŸŒธ Blooms, Brilliance & Big Moments at the Inaugural FDC Florist Class! ๐ŸŒธ

On Wednesday, the Flower and Garden Precinct burst into life as the very first FDC florist competition took off in full colour! ๐Ÿ’

In just 30 minutes, teams of two battled the clock to create stunning vase arrangements, using only the supplies on hand. The pressure was real, but the results? Absolutely breathtaking. ๐Ÿ‘

Take a stroll past the displays to see just how talented our competitors are, and good news: weโ€™re already planning to go bigger next year!
