The Internationally renowned J A N E P A C K E R Flower School now also operates within our New York flower store on 59th Street, offering a similar range of high quality tuition as its sister schools in London and Tokyo. It’s the perfect location for New Yorkers (and others) to spend time enjoying flowers.
The aim of the school is to share the skills and design philosophy of
Jane Packer in a highly creative environment with anyone who has an
interest in flowers, whether individuals who simply enjoy flowers in
their home, florists who wish to improve their skills or those who may
have an ambition to make floristry a career.
Small classes will enable our highly
skilled tutors to spend the maximum time with each student. Our classes
are kept intentionally small (max 6 Students) so that the greatest
attention can be given at all times. All
materials required will be provided, however we would recommend that you
bring a camera (sorry no video cameras).
Students will take home their own flower arrangements created in the
class.
Our web site gives an overview of our courses and dates. Unfortunately, we cannot provide a booking service directly from our web page at the moment due to security issues. However you can print out a booking form and submit it by fax, e-mail or mail.

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS |
This is a class which gives you the opportunity to spend time with that special person in your life. You will be shown how to make glorious arrangements that you will both be able to take home. This two for one offer allows the two of you to enjoy this class together.
CLASSIC DESIGN
This one day class
will look at classic floral design and we’ll teach it with Jane Packer
style. Yes to tradition, but no
to old fashioned! A day of
Jane’s interpretation on how to use those old favorites.
Whether it’s a traditionally shaped arrangement, container or bloom,
we’ll mix them up with the new and fashionable to give the designs cutting
edge style. The day will include
two of the basic floristry techniques, hand tying and arranging in floral
foam. This course is perfect for
a beginner and creative enough to advance any novice.
CONTEMPORARY
DESIGN This day will be
filled with Jane’s most up to date contemporary designs.
Thinking outside of the box, this day will be inspired by current
trends in fashions and interiors and we’ll use funky colors, containers and
stunning blooms in an unusual way.
Gone is the day of those fuddy duddy arrangements!
We will combine a number of basic skills with some floristry tricks
to create some eye-catching designs – a great day out for the trend
conscious!
WEDDING WORKSHOP This one day wedding
workshop will give you a small taster of wedding floristry.
One part is dedicated to wiring techniques which leads in to
boutonnieres and corsages. The second part is a beautiful bridal bouquet.
This will give any budding florist an insight into bridal floristry.
