This is Something Special

A little flower that blooms in May
A lovely sunset at the end of the day
Someone helping a stranger along the way
That's heaven to me

Mother's Day is behinds us, but now is not the time to sit back and relax. Spring and early summer are serious "Prime Time" for flower professionals. Women's Day, Easter, Administrative Professionals Day, Earth Day and Mother's Day are the big flower days on the spring calendar, however, now we move into the cultural traditions that aren't centered on a single day.

You Are My Sunshine Bouquet

Senior and junior proms are happening all across the nation. Hope your fingers are ready for boutonniere and corsage work. This is many young adults' first experience with the beauty and power of flowers and fashion. Do you still have that picture of you and your date stuffed in the back of a year book somewhere?

Graduations, both high school and college, will be taking place in late May, through June. The image of a Grad with a bunch of tulips or a bouquet to match their gown or school colors is a classic. Flowers capture the essence of the accomplishments a Grad has achieved, and as friends and family gather to celebrate; fresh flowers are the best way to dress up a home or event space.

The most popular month for weddings is June. Hopefully your calendar is booked and your brides are selecting the color palette and the varieties of flowers they will carry down the aisle. Do you have a very particular color you need? Tulips have more tonal range than any other cut flowers, so direct that picky bride to tulips, and ...yes she can have "blush pink."

The great part of working with flowers during this season is the celebratory vibe that all these events have in common. Flowers are great at accompanying milestones such as proms, graduations and weddings.

The mind is constantly making connections; flowers contribute a joyous weight to any party.

Flowers intuitively let the guests and participants know that "this is something special."
