FLOURISH ROOT
Flourish Root Floral Studio is a floral and green installation arts studio led by Jen Cable and located in the village of Sperryville, Virginia. Jen works with flowers, foliage, and natural materials to create florals and living green works evocative of the seasons and natural surroundings. Living in the Blue Ridge Mountains for the last 20 years, Jen finds daily inspiration from its natural beauty in all its forms, colors, and views. The mountains, wildflowers, fields, forests, gardens, farms and their respective seasons are all collective resources from which she draws to create her work and designs.
Jen started working with flowers in 2012 when she opened Flourish Root Floral Studio in a small space at Coterie, a now-shuttered collective of local artisans and curated objects. Throughout the years, the studio has grown and evolved into the stand-alone working studio space that it is today. Jen creates florals for a wide variety of events and celebrations, from every day, private and corporate clients, to weddings, workshops and living art for artist and professional collaborations. Jen believes in the practice of using and sourcing in-season local and regional materials and goods to create her floral and green works. This is an essential facet of her work, as it highlights the importance of our surroundings and an everchanging environment that blooms, grows, yields and provides the materials that are the foundation of her creative work.
Jen has a B.A. in Historic Preservation from Mary Washington College (now University of Mary Washington) and often finds herself enthralled with architectural details, a well-designed museum, and the aesthetics of historic properties. Many details from her education and these interests find their way into her floral creations. Her love of the outdoors and the environment led her to horticulture and the fundamental beauty of plants, flowers, and gardens. She operated her own landscape and garden design business for 10 years before she began to focus solely on her florals, a natural progression from her previous horticultural experience.
