Bloom Battle '19 was a competition of contrasts. Of the 16 competitors, we had nine battle-tested veterans and seven up-starts. The winning designers reflected the varying experience of the field.
Jen Majewski, a four-time competitor, swept the popular vote winning both the Instagram Famous prize and the People's Choice award.
Jen is the true people's champion.
Jeffrey Gill, was not only a first time contestant, but his First Prize winning entry was his first ever large floral arrangement!
Jeffrey exhibited a wonderful negative capability in his arrangement.
Rounding out the victors:
2nd Place: Chis Vaeth, The Tom Brady of Bloom Battle, is a perennial winner. (He's never been accused of deflated balls.)
3rd Place: Rebecca Bainum another first-timer, brought it hard and crushed it. What's up.
