Mara Ellis
Creative director
Mara brings two decades of editorial and event floristry into lessons about movement, proportion, and visual storytelling.
Our story
A school built around attention.
Petzeta Floral School began as a small studio circle where makers gathered around a worktable to share stem care, seasonal observations, and the quiet satisfaction of making something by hand.
Our mission
We make floristry education clear, welcoming, and rooted in respect for materials. Our lessons connect design decisions with practical craft, so learners can create confidently while working thoughtfully with flowers.
What we value
- Curiosity before perfection.
- Seasonal materials before unnecessary excess.
- Specific feedback that helps every learner progress.
