Bio

When do people spend money on flowers? Flowers accompany people in the most important life situations – during weddings and funerals, on birthday and graduation parties, at meetings in the airport, etc.

Jeff Leatham is a person, who knows everything about flowers. He has built a great flower empire – which starts from the shop in the Four Seasons hotel and ends with books on flower design. Besides, he is an artistic director at the hotel, named “Four Seasons George V”. He also gained some kudos as a reality TV star, who acted on the series “Flowers Uncut” on TLC during one season.

He was born in Ogden, Utah in a family of two teachers. His father liked gardening, and that was the start point when Jeff got interested in flowers. But he had no idea, that his love for plants can become his source of income. That’s why he started to work as a model. He walked down the runway in Paris and Milan. After that, he returned to the USA and needed some job to make the ends meet. He was hired as an assistant to a flower shop, and that was the beginning of his career. He liked what he was doing, although later he remembered his first flower sets with a smile – they were so simple. After four years in the flower business, Jeff moved from the USA to Europe and continued to develop his business there.

Nowadays he is one of the most popular florists in the world. His clients are famous and powerful people. He decorated with flowers the wedding ceremony of the movie stars Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello. He also created the cascades of roses for Jafarian Ghaissarifar (the Iranian model) and Folarin Alakija (the Nigerian billionaire) wedding day. Besides, he is the favorite flower designer of the Kardashians family.
