Our flower workshops are designed for those with a love of all things "Bloomin' Marvellous" with an emphasis on basic elements of design and covering a range of techniques for an appreciation of Mother nature's beautiful creations and most of all having fun with flowers.With an illustrious career spanning over 30 years, Bloomin Marvellous Flower Schools' founder Jemina has been lucky enough to collaborate with some of the best in the business and worked on many of Melbourne’s most prestigious events including the Melbourne Grand Prix Spring Racing Carnival and the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show.Beginning her apprenticeship training at the renowned Myer Florist in the Melbourne city store to owning her own florist shop in the Mornington Peninsula at the age of 20.Her passion for teaching was ignited when she joined the team as head teacher at Victoria Whitelaw School of Flowers. This is where the story has a new beginning, “Not everyone gets to have a career they love, I’m very lucky”. Being able to give back all that she has learnt over the years to up and coming students was very gratifying and left Jemina wanting to offer more. Jemina not only has her Certificate lll in Floristry but also attended night school to gain her Certificate lV in Training & Assessment – making her an accredited teacher.That is when she returned to where it all began having been a floristry student at Box Hill Institute (many years before) and coming full circle by returning as a part of the teaching faculty.December 2019 Bloomin’ Marvellous Flower School was launched Based in the leafy Melbourne suburb of Malvern, Bloomin’ Marvellous Flower School inspires people from all walks of life to celebrate the beauty of nature, have fun with flowers and take a moment to (quite literally) stop and smell the roses.For Jemina, the biggest reward is seeing the smiles that transform her students’ faces after they’ve assembled their first bouquet – so pop into her light-filled studio and find some joy as you learn to arrange your own.

Meet Bloomin' Marvellous
Flowers have been a constant in Jemina Richard's life since childhood, but it was only after a 30-year floristry career that she found her true calling—teaching. She opened Bloomin’ Marvellous in 2026, a beginner-friendly flower school where she dedicates herself to helping others cultivate their own love of floristry.
Bloomin’ Marvellous was built on intergenerational love and knowledge, so it’s no surprise the space has fostered a vibrant community in Melbourne’s leafy Malvern East. On any given day you’ll likely spot generations of women inside sharing stories, forging connections and experiencing the delight that comes from working with a selection of beautiful flowers and lush foliage.
Step inside and you’ll be greeted by stunning floral wall arrangements, a luxurious teal velvet couch and long learning tables arranged in a cosy semi-circle. It's the kind of spot where you can completely relax and dive headfirst into the world of floral design, no matter your experience.
Bloomin’ Marvellous sprouted from…
“Wanting to give something back to the industry that I had spent 35 years working in. I opened the school to teach floristry, that was my dream, but it’s become so much more than just that. A lot of people come to the classes for the experience—creating a beautiful arrangement, enjoying high tea and a glass of bubbles, and having an afternoon spending time with people they love.”
Flowers are a mood booster…
“It’s not rocket science what we florists do, it's not saving lives, but I do think in a lot of ways it does give a little bit of happiness. That’s the difference a bunch of flowers can have.”
My favourite part of teaching is…
“Watching people start off with just an array of beautiful blooms and then they put them in a vase and suddenly someone who has never done floristry before says, ‘Look what I made!’ That’s my aha moment.”
Arranging flowers will help you…
“Appreciate change! When the seasons come and go they bring something new and it's almost like a little gift from Mother Nature. The daffodils are coming, the freesias are coming—there’s always something to look forward to.”
You’ll leave my class with…
“Everyday floristry techniques that you can do at home and the confidence to arrange flowers in a vase so you can have something beautiful on display in your space.”
Floristry is for everyone…
“Floristry is actually quite easy and it’s so personality-based. We can all have the same flowers but everyone’s arrangement will be different. As long as you have the basic design principles in there, it’s all about being creative.”
