The AIFD Foundation invites floral designers and floral enthusiasts to create a Neotropica or Tropical Nouveau design in the spirit of PHILosophy and to endow the Phil Rulloda AIFD Scholarship Fund.
“An award winner surpassing all others, he is revered as a true genius of the human spirit. He can turn a palm frond into a treasured sculpture. In turn, he can mold a student into a dedicated designer. His design style, philosophy of life and compassion for his art make him the finest creative wonder of our time.” — Rocky Pollitz AIFD
