In 2009, the New York Times described our Mayor, Shirley Franklin, as a "But Ms. Franklin, a tiny, unflappable woman who always wears a giant flower pinned to her lapel, is beginning to seem more a prophet than a has-been." The Franklin Floral arrangement is a heartfelt tribute to former Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin, celebrating her legacy and signature style. Known for her leadership as the city's first female and first Black woman mayor, Franklin was often seen wearing a prominent silk peony on her lapel—a symbol of her strength and grace. This bouquet captures that essence with a blend of lush peonies, roses, filler, and greenery, reflecting the elegance she brought to public service. The arrangement is available in various sizes, allowing admirers to honor her enduring impact on Atlanta's civic and cultural landscape.
In some instances, our photo may represent an overall theme or look and include a one-of-a-kind vase which cannot be exactly replicated.
Although the actual bouquet may not precisely match the photo, its temperament will. Occasionally, substitutions of flowers and/or containers happen due to weather, seasonality and market conditions which may affect availability. If this is the case with the gift you’ve selected, we will ensure that the style, theme and color scheme of your arrangement is preserved and will only substitute items of equal value or higher value.
If any design elements are of major importance to your order, please include them in the florist instructions at checkout or contact us to ensure availability.
