The day after Valentine’s Day, Dani Vignos, owner of University Flower Shop, will offer us a glimpse into her shop and how to create interesting and attractive succulent gardens. Mike Palmer, a horticulturist at the Matthaei Botancial Gardens, will talk about the care and propagation of succulents at home.

Mike Palmer, Greenhouse Research Coordinator, has been with Matthaei Botanical Gardens since 1990, joining the staff after he received his B.S. in Commercial Horticulture from Purdue University. At Purdue he focused his studies on woody plants and plant propagation, with emphasis on botanical nomenclature and public gardens. At Matthaei, Mike coordinates research in the greenhouses and is gatekeeper for research projects on the grounds.

University Flower Shop, established in 1931, is a floral design studio and shop in Ann Arbor’s historic Nickels Arcade. Led by owner and designer, Danielle Vignos, the shop creates custom floral arrangements and wrapped bouquets for any mood and all occasions. The flower shop team is always in search of interesting and seasonal ingredients to keep minds inspired and guests intrigued.
