Who we are

At Protean Floral Design, we are a floral design studio dedicated to sustainability. By sourcing locally and responsibly grown materials, and utilizing reusable resources in our designs, we strive to minimize the environmental impact of the floral industry. Our mission is to highlight the beauty of nature in every creation, while fostering a deeper appreciation for the earth’s treasures.

Founded by Molly Wardwell, whose commitment to environmental stewardship began during her undergraduate studies and was further shaped by her graduate research in Chile, Protean is rooted in a global perspective on sustainability. With over 30 years of experience as a gardener and landscape professional, Molly is now channeling her expertise into the art of floral design, creating beauty that brings joy and inspires others to value and protect our planet.
