I’m in Augusta, Georgia designing the plants and flowers for my client’s hospitality suites during The Masters week! Oftentimes, professional golf tournaments hire my company to design the plants and flowers for events like this, and I have such a blast on these jobs.
Unlike any other sport, golf and flowers are truly a perfect match. Golfers travel the world, to the most pristine golf courses and spend their tournament days surrounded by nature. The atmosphere of each course is unique – some are by the water on a cliff overlooking the ocean, others are in a tucked away corner of a verdant forest – all of them have that vibrant green color from the grass and flowers surrounding the course, hospitality suites, and clubhouse.
The temperature in Augusta has been between seventy and eighty-five degrees in the afternoons and all the trees are in full green. It feels like the start of summer here, which is a magic on its own for a northeastern girl like me.
