Flowering of CTAHR Creativity

Cooperative Extension agent Robert Cating (PEPS) recently completed a course in floral design to help him understand the needs of floral designers for tropical flowers and foliage. To prepare for a floral design workshop for youths, he conducted a hands-on practice session using faculty, staff, and student volunteers at the Komohana Research & Extension Center. Some stunning creations resulted! Flowers for this exercise were donated by grower-cooperator Eric Tanouye of Green Point Nurseries.
