Tiger Garden

Tiger Garden Tiger Garden is MU's full-service, student-operated floral shop. We serve campus & the Columbia area!
(69)

Tiger Garden opened its doors as MU's full-service floral shop in August 2005 and is predominately operated by students attending MU. Our mission is to expand the educational process by combining traditional textbook learning with hands-on small business experience in an entrepreneurial environment. Student employees experience what it's like to run a small business and solve the unexpected challe

nges associated with any business. They also develop the skills necessary to create quality floral products.

Let's talk about shrink 🤓

Shipping and distribution has gotten extremely advanced- we have technology now that ensures clients are getting the freshest, and highest-quality blooms. ✈️🛳Of course some issues can't be avoided and as florists we have to account for shrink when setting prices for arrangements.

Shrink is the waste that occurs in a floral shop. 🗑The most common causes of this are broken stems, bruising during transport, or botrytis. Botrytis is a fungus that is caused by too high of humidity and a lack of airflow. We often see this with roses, like the one above, right after we unbox the roses from their shipping package. 📦

The floral industry is always growing and developing new products to meet the needs of consumers all over the world. 🫶🏼

Recently, two Tiger Garden employees attended Society of American Florist Profit Blast- and learned about current trends and business practices in the floral industry. Think professional development for florists! 👩‍🏫

Below is AlstroNova; something our employees saw at Profit Blast! A cultivar closely related to Alstroemeria! Let us know below if you’d like to see some of this in the shop 👇🏻

Moovin' and Groovin' to a completely unified voice on all social channels. 🎉🥳

Our team is so grateful for the support and love we receive from this community. When we started the social media accounts it was an effort to give our brides a complete view of what we could create for them. Because of the support of our Mizzou and Columbia communities, our events have expanded to more than just weddings! 🥰🌟

Starting on June 1st our social media presence will be found on . We are thrilled to unite our voices under one "roof" and bring you a complete and unified view of ALL of our students' talent in making your retail, large event, and wedding designs come true! ✨

Did you know??? We buy roses by the length of stem! 🌹

In this picture you can see the difference between a bunch of 60cm and 70cm roses!

Price difference can range from 15-50 cents per stem for every 10cm in length; isn't that wild?
