Spring flowers have sprung up all around town—and Herald Square is no exception, especially in the windows and on the main sales floor of Macy's, which kicked off its 32nd annual flower show Sunday. Opening the seasonal celebration, Jorge Cazzorla, creative director of Celebrate Flowers, was given a three day run for the first "Bouquet of the Day," a changing display showcasing the work of a roster of top floral designers. (Matthew David Hopkins, David Beahm, Saundra Parks, James Francois-Pijuan, and Preston Bailey make up this year's lineup.) Cazzorla crafted seven enormous sunflowers, each made up of 275 roses in shades of burgundy, terra-cotta, dark orange, and yellow surrounded by rows of 64 black magic Cordyline terminalis leaves. Little decorative bees dotted the sunflowers, in keeping with the store's "It's All the Buzz" theme for this year's show, which is produced by Robin Hall and his team at Macy's.
