Flower spotlight: Aster

Asters are a delicate little flower. These sweet perennials work well as colorful accents in floral arrangements and bouquets, and they really create a foundation for beautiful floral decor when they’re paired with other blooms.

Here are a few ways to consider incorporating aster flowers in your next Lilygrass order.

Plant Spotlight: Bromeliad

Have you ever considered throwing a pineapple top into your floral centerpiece? Chances are you haven’t, but maybe you should?

Bromeliads are a beautiful plant from the same family as the pineapple. They’re stunningly unique and add a slight edginess to potted arrangements. Native to the tropics, subtropics, and West Africa, this bloom commonly showcases tightly overlapped green leaves with long, pointed ends (like the leafy top of its pineapple cousin).

Wedding Trends for Spring and Summer

It’s the season of love! With Valentine’s Day in the rearview mirror, busy brides are preparing their spring and summer weddings. Searching for the perfect dress, caterer, and venue is near the top of every bride’s list. Flowers are high on that list as well, as they help set the mood for your wedding.

Valentine’s Day is coming!

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Keep in mind that this holiday is about celebrating love, not just romance. Don’t forget your best gal pal on Valentine’s, especially if she’s a single, independent lady. Have a beautiful bouquet filled with bold yellow roses symbolizing friendship and joy sent to her office to brighten her day.
 

Flower spotlight: blue thistle

Blue thistle isn’t technically a flower, it’s a weed. But it’s a unique and striking addition to cut flower arrangements and is popular among brides. Native to Europe, this perennial weed was naturalized in the United States decades ago. The conical bloom is popular in bouquets and other floral arrangements because of its rustic beauty and blue hue.

Flower spotlight: holiday greenery

Winter weather frost can make your lawn look a little brown and sad, and those overcast dreary days can be a challenge for anyone. Holiday greenery is a great way to balance out the winter doldrums and add warmth, sweet smells, and a fresh bit of nature to your home, both inside and out.
