Aiken in Bloom
Aiken in Bloom: In Conversation with Margaret Brown
For 27 years, she created the floral arrangements that decorated Augusta National during the Masters Tournament. The flowers she arranged each year in The Butler Cabin, where the post-tournament Green Jacket Interview is famously held, have been seen by hundreds of millions of people around the world. Her experiences over the course of nearly 3 decades, from 1982 until 2008, inspired her to write a book entitled A Florist’s Walk Down Magnolia Lane: An Augusta Story so that she could share a behind the scenes look at the tradition of one of the most storied golf tournaments in history.
Long before she was the floral designer for Augusta National, Margaret was busy falling in love with nature and flowers in her parents’ yard growing up. She was zealous about spending time outdoors, and as she got older, she became equally enthusiastic about the happiness, peace, and joy that spread wherever flowers go.
Tune in as we have the opportunity to sit down with her to discuss her passion of flowers and how she originally started working with Augusta National.
