Floral Design Day was created to honor Carl Rittner the founder of our floral design school, a pioneer in floral art education. Rittner founded the Rittener School of Floral Design.
Some internet holiday sites have begun to call this day National Floral Design Day. The creators of this day do not use the word “National” in the title.
