At the wee hours of the morning, a group of vigilante florists have been transforming the trash bins, manhole covers, and random sites of New York into moments of beauty. Lewis Miller’s bouquet bins are a sight to behold. The New York City florist is recycling flowers to change perspectives and bring joy to the city’s passersby. Using oversized florals and richly colored botanicals, Miller’s team describes themselves as “storytellers through the art of floral design, transforming an arrangement into a love song and an event into an indelible Experience.” The striking installations are causing people to stop in their tracks and lite up Instagram.
