LADY BIRD JOHNSON WILDFLOWER CENTER PARTNERS WITH b. dazzle, inc. TO PRODUCE “AMERICAN NATIVE FLOWERS” SCRAMBLE SQUARES® PUZZLE
REDONDO BEACH, CA -March 12, 2004 – b. dazzle, inc. of Redondo Beach, California, has announced that it has reached an agreement with the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, Austin, Texas, to produce native plant-inspired puzzles. This collaboration has already resulted in the “American Native Flowers” Scramble Squares® puzzle being introduced by b. dazzle, inc. at the 2004 Summer wholesale gift trade shows held throughout the United States.
The Wildflower Center is working with b. dazzle to develop Scramble Squares® puzzles based on native plants and wildflowers of North America. Each wildflower puzzle will carry the Center’s logo, as well as educational information about the plants depicted and the role they play environmentally.

Hinson & Company, New York, launched a major new collection of wildflower-inspired wallpaper and Fabrics in the Fall of 2003.
“We are thrilled to be working with the Wildflower Center and very gratified that we will be contributing to their good work in such things as research, conservation and restoration— which impacts all of North America,” says Kathie Gavin, president & ceo of b. dazzle, inc.
