loral design never stands still. Styles evolve, colour palettes shift, and new ways of working continue to shape how florists create and inspire their customers. In this new edition of The Story of M. Magazine, we bring all of this together in one place.
This new edition is made for florists who are curious, creative, and always looking ahead. It blends floral trends and design inspiration with real stories from the field, insights into quality and craftsmanship, and a closer look at the people and processes behind the flowers you work with every day.
From visual inspiration to practical know-how, this magazine invites you to pause, browse, and rediscover what makes flowers such a powerful medium.

Floral trends and design inspiration
Explore current and upcoming floral styles (the floral trends for 2026 by Mike Boerma are in here!), shapes, and colour directions. From expressive arrangements to refined details, this edition offers visual inspiration you can translate straight into your own work.
Growing with care, in more than one way
In this magazine, we look at how flowers are grown with respect for the natural environment, through practices that support soil life, water efficiency, and biodiversity. At the same time, we share how we care for the people behind the flowers, with a focus on wellbeing, skills, and a supportive workplace.
Quality that supports creativity
Good design starts with reliable flowers. Discover how attention to post-harvest care, handling, and collaboration in the chain helps flowers perform better, last longer, and give you more freedom to create.
Growing together as an industry
The magazine also looks at how florists, growers, and partners continue to learn from one another. Because innovation in floristry is not just about style, but also about how we work together and move the sector forward.
