A full-time florist works in a flower shop to create floral arrangements, care for plant inventory, and sell flowers to customers. As a full-time professional, you work at least 35 to 40 hours per week. Your duties include taking orders from clients and completing a floral design that matches each request. You also take care of the flowers so that they remain fresh until delivery. Depending on where you work, you may also have sales responsibilities, and you can promote products and services to customers who come to your shop. Florists work with growers and vendors to obtain seasonal flowers for their inventory.
