How To Select Seasonal Flowers
Sunday, September 5th, 2010Not sure how to say “I love you” to your sweetheart or “My condolences” to your business associate? Don’t speak a word. Instead, let flowers speak for you when you do not know what to say or how to say it best. Here are some pointers that can help you make a memorable arrangement for almost any occasion throughout the year.
Spring time brings the bulbs which bloom, the sturdy tulip, the delicate iris, the snowdrop, the grape hyacinth. To your spring flowers of white daisies and yellow gerberas, add a splash of color. Delicate alstroemeria can sit beside sturdy twigs of pussy willow to make for pretty bouquets to cheer up any room.
Summer time and the living is easy. Colors are bright and bold and sunny. Yellow spider mums sit beside bright pink stargazer lilies and beside Birds of paradise. Roses and mums and carnations collide with pink heather and pink daisies. These vibrant colors and combinations can bring a smile to any gloomy day.
In fall, the colors become muted and orange takes the stage. Golds and yellows are popular now too, harvest time is here. Add fun decorative elements to your bouquet with a pumpkin shaped pick or a small scarecrow figure. Bright yellow and black sunflowers are dramatic pieces to add to an arrangement, as are mums and orange lilies and daisies. For a special touch, throw in some peach alstroemeria and some yellow roses to fill out your arrangement.
Winter is the time for snow, for green and white, and sometimes red. Bouquets this time of year are simple and elegant. Add hypericum berries to your white arrangement for a touch of wintry color, or some frosted pine cones and some baby’s breath to your arrangement of white spider mums and cream colored roses and holiday greens. For a festive touch, add a curl of ribbon.
Not every occasion is a holiday. Today could be your loved one’s birthday, their retirement day, or perhaps they have just gotten their diploma. No matter what the occasion, you can create a floral arrangement this suits them and the occasion perfectly. A birth in the family? Add an adorable teddy bear to the bouquet!
Whether your holidays are religious or secular, you want to make certain that you observe them as best you can. Decorate your home or the homes of your loved ones with a floral arrangement that is perfectly suited to the occasion. Whether you observe the Day of the Dead or the Summer Solstice, Divali or Christmas or Ramadan, there is an arrangement that can be custom made for you.
It is always a good day to send flowers. People love how they brighten a room. They like the texture and shape and feel of them. Let those you care about know just how much you think about them: send flowers today.
