Episode: Sammy Perry on being a florist allergic to flowers, love at first sight, and putting the Territory on the map.
Description: Originally from Engadine in Sydney, Sammy Perry is one of Darwin's best known floral artists, but is now bringing Aboriginal fashion to the world through her work with DAAF.
She's worked in NYC as a florist, but lost her job after the 9/11 terror attacks, has two children through IVF and stayed in Darwin for the lamb....we mean kids. She stayed in Darwin for the kids.
Sammy has lived 10 lifetimes in one, has discovered the beauty of the NT, and is now working tirelessly to spread the good word of the Territory.
