Floral Design Day is a time for people to recognize those who work in the floral industry, to honor the creativity they bring to their jobs every day. And here at Walter Knoll Florist, we want to thank our team, who use their talents to make Saint Louis more beautiful each day. We’d like you to meet Scott.

We asked Scott what he loves most about his job. “Day to day, the orders come in, and each one is a different creative project. Customers rely on me to provide the flowers for all aspects of life – from extreme joy to unbelievable grief, I am there for them. ”

Scott enjoys working with roses, and one of his favorite projects with Walter Knoll was working on the Children’s Hospital Table Tops Benefit at the Ritz Carlton.
