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.

lustre” supermarket bunch! We advise you on how to create some super designs
from a typical bunch. These simple and effective ideas in a range of
containers are yours to take home. Join us and be inspired!
Contemporary Hand – Tied
The contemporary Jane Packer hand tied is the most creative style of hand
tied bouquet. It is also the
most difficult. It will normally
include some form of accessory and will consist of unusual materials.
We often use accessories within our designs inspired by the latest
high street fashions. This is
where we think outside of the box!
The
Jane Packer loose open hand tied design uses longer stemmed flowers.
The
blooms are usually mixed together with foliages in between; the blooms are
not clustered in groups. At Jane
Packer we would usually create this classic style with garden flowers in
tones and shades of all one colour.
The choice of a monochromatic colour scheme and unusual garden blooms
is Jane Packer’s interpretation of this classic design.
This class shows students how to create a very
classical look, similar to an English country garden, using seasonal flowers
such as roses, peonies, sweet peas, ivy, hydrangea. Romantic flowers are
used and students learn how to arrange flowers straight into vase.
Contemporary

contemporary methods, we show you how to make unusual vase designs using
materials such as gravel, gel, feathers. Designs will include a minimalist
arrangement and a massed arrangement.
