Welcome back to Behind The Bloom Podcast! I’m J Schwanke, and this week RJ and I are bringing you another companion episode — this time revisiting Season One, Episode 104: Carnations, Family & Flowers. This one is especially close to my heart, because it shares the story of my own family’s floral history. As a fourth-generation florist, I’ve got deep roots in flowers—and you’ll even hear about my grandpa, ‘Carnation Joe.’ It’s a very personal episode, filled with memories, family traditions, and of course, plenty of flowers. We hope you’ll go back and watch that Life In Bloom episode, because it was such a special one. For now, let’s dive deeper together, right here on Behind The Bloom Podcast.
