COLUMBUS—Billy Kahn, presi- dent of A Better Columbus (ABC), and Rusty Theut, president of the Columbus Rotary Club, have announced a partner ship. ABC has curated special hanging floral baskets for local merchants and Rotary is underwriting half the cost.
ABC has worked with local floral designer Anna Schindler to research and create commercial-grade baskets full of the highest quality artificial flowers coated with the best UV protection available in America.
“We needed to produce the high- est quality baskets to prevent chipping, cracking and fading in the Texas heat and sunlight for many years,” according to Kahn. “However, high quality translates to high costs. All in, our cost for one of these beautiful baskets is $250."
