“Discovering the expansive grounds of Longue Vue within the city limits was something of a beautiful surprise when I moved to New Orleans. Both the architecture and the plantings take me back to another era. I was inspired to create arrangements with flowers that looked like they could have been cut from their garden, although I promise they weren’t!” — Kim Starr Wise, Floral Designer
