Beauty Blooms Season 8 Opens With a Visit to Florabundance
The new season of J Schwanke’s Life in Bloom begins in one of the country’s most important flower-growing regions with a behind-the-scenes visit to Florabundance in Carpinteria, California.
In the Season 8 premiere episode of “Beauty Blooms,” J Schwanke tours the Florabundance cooler alongside Florabundance owner Joost Bongaerts and floral sales manager and floral expert Debbie Kline. The episode highlights the role wholesale flower sourcing, curated flower pulls, and floral planning play in weddings, events, and everyday floral design.
The episode gives viewers a rare look inside the floral selection process used by professional florists and event designers. From premium garden roses to seasonal ranunculus and texture-rich foliage, the Florabundance team demonstrates how flowers are selected and combined to create cohesive floral palettes for weddings and events.
Why Flower Pulls Matter
One of the most valuable moments in the episode is the discussion around flower pulls.
A flower pull allows florists, wedding planners, and event clients to see flower varieties, colors, textures, and seasonal availability together before finalizing an event design. Instead of relying only on inspiration photos or Pinterest boards, clients can evaluate flowers in person and build palettes that work naturally together.

This process is especially important for weddings and large-scale events where flower color, bloom size, texture, and seasonality all impact the final design.
Florabundance has become known throughout the floral industry for helping designers source flowers that align with a specific vision while also considering freshness, availability, shipping timelines, and overall floral performance.

The episode showcases many of the flowers and floral categories Florabundance is known for, including:
