I’m Adrienne, owner of
fortissimo florals.

Fortissimo’s tiny dahlia farm was born out of the 2020 Covid pandemic. While all of New York City quickly shut down and event design work disappeared, I journeyed to Pennsylvania to ride out the lockdown with family. 

My mom, Vicki, is a self taught expert gardener. When the Summer months came around that year, a few of her dahlia plants produced a tremendous amount of blooms. I dead-headed and tended daily and eventually hauled many deliveries of flowers to neighbors, florist friends, and flower shops in Brooklyn & Pennsylvania. We’ve been growing & refining our micro flower farm ever since.

I’ve honed my floral design skills for the last 10 years with event florists in Los Angeles & New York City. I’ve designed countless weddings & corporate events, brand activations, led floral workshops, and more ☺️
