Founded in 1989 by one of the most renowned pioneers in modern day floral design, Ian Prosser, Botanica has been a beacon of creativity for over three decades.  Ian's expertise and artistic vision garnered national attention, leading to a pivotal role as the Design Chairperson for George W. Bush's second Presidential Inauguration and work with Queen Elizabeth, President Clinton, Elton John, Tom Cruise, Donna Summers, and numerous sports figures and dignitaries.  And this was all done while humbly serving the Tampa Bay community and surrounding areas.  His floral mastery exemplifies a lifelong commitment to elevating the artistry of floral design and his legacy with Botanica is nothing short of extraordinary.

But that was only the beginning…

Ian has led his daughter, Zoë Gallina, to the helm of today’s Botanica, where she serves as Vice President and Chief Creative Director.  Zoë was not only raised in the floral industry in which she boasts 18 years of professional experience, but she has her own keen sense of style and expertise that’s been widely recognized and praised in the floral and event design industry.

Professionally trained by the Association of Certified Wedding Consultants and certified by the American Academy of Floriculture, she has won numerous awards and often speaks nationally.  She is a reflection of her father’s determination to exceed expectations while putting her own stamp on each event with her stylish eye for detail.
