Many girls yearn for a job as a florist -- they are happy to look at flowers every day, and they can freely express their creativity... Yes, but this job is not only elegant. If you think every day is beautiful, you are wrong!

Florists are referred to as "peasant poets": buying and moving goods, handling flowers, changing water, etc., are all labor.

To buy goods, you have to go around the flower market several times to compare and shop around. You can only buy more varieties of flowers, prices, distinguish freshness, and learn how to keep them fresh. After returning, you have to remove the leaves and branches of each flower by yourself, that's right! Every stick! Also wake up flowers, move large buckets of water, put preservatives, pay attention to room temperature, etc...

In Germany, learning flower art is a long process. It takes at least three years to become a certified florist, and at least two and a half to six years of work experience in the industry if you want to obtain a Master certification.

People who are sensitive to heat and cold, have allergies (hay fever), neurodermatitis or have colour vision problems are not suitable for this occupation.

The teaching of flower art is systematic and comprehensive. The basic theoretical knowledge of flower art, design, botany, retail economics, general subjects, art history, painting, etc. are also required to be learned.

A large part of the three-year vocational training takes place in the workplace of a florist, in addition to the theoretical foundations being studied in a vocational school. Most trainees start their florist training with a secondary school diploma or an intermediate diploma.
