Del Bloom faces a floral fiasco as her family's shop loses the Homecoming parade contract to their rival, owned by her crush Hamilton's mom. With the festivities looming, Del must devise a plan to save their business and her chance to ask Hamilton to the bonfire. Can she find a solution before everything wilts?

From the publisher

Pushing petals is their business. But it’s up to one girl to keep things from wilting! Del Bloom and her family are busy preparing flowers for the town’s Homecoming festivities. And Del is also preparing to ask her crush, Hamilton, to the big bonfire! But then the Blooms discover that their rival florist, Fleur, has been hired instead of them to make the rose bouquets for the Homecoming parade. Worst of all, the owner of Fleur is Hamilton’s mom, so Del can’t even confide in him. It’s up to Del to come up with a brilliant flower fix, and fast. Will the Blooms be on the winning team?
