Are there certain flowers you suggest for different occasions?
ITSBYU: Traditionally, there are certain flowers that were used for certain occasions, but it seems that we've really moved past this and that our customers are requesting flowers that they just like and are in-season.
For the bride, bouquets with roses, lilies, peonies and other fragrant white blooms are always popular, while bridesmaids carry complimentary bouquets based on the wedding color scheme.
"Get Well" bouquets should be made of bright blooms -- yellow sunflowers, bursting blue delphinium, green mums, orange daisies, and bright-colored roses. Flowers have been proven to help people get better more quickly, so never forget the flowers!
Valentines has traditionally been the red rose, but we're seeing younger generations attracted to wildflowers, the enticing rainbow of ranunculus, and even the eye-popping petals of gerbera daisies.
For dinner parties, we are really crushing on fresh California greens, including different mixes of eucalyptus varietals paired with bright yellow and orange pincushion protea. Of course, a king protea on its own or a couple of queen proteas in a vase makes a lovely, unique statement.
What are some suggested arrangements for Mother’s Day?
East Olivia: For a sophisticated mom who reads Martha Stewart I would do peonies any color, Mother's Day is the perfect time of year as well because they are in season, the most available, beautiful and affordable. For a millennial mom who would be open to something much less traditional I would do a pompous grass bouquet.
ITSBYU: We recommend something fun that you can put together with mom! Our Fresh Garden subscription is always bursting with huge rosy blooms and our special florist training vase makes it easy for anyone to arrange with no prior experience. Many of our subscribers order this kit as an activity to do with their daughters!
