From seed to bouquet - the power of social media

Flowers. They brighten your day, show you care or rescue you from the dog house. Whatever the reason, fresh flowers are big business in Kapiti right now.

No one knows this better than Alison Watts from Bee & Bloom Florist and Flower Garden in Paraparumu Beach. After a two-year hiatus, her home-based floristry business is growing from strength to strength with community support and an improved online presence. Her daily Instagram and Facebook posts have been instrumental in her success.
