If you happen to pass by a cottage on a lazy summer day, take a moment to stop and smell the flowers. One of the blooms you will probably smell is sweet pea. Their pretty pink petals are often found spilling out of baskets and milk cans or mounded in garden beds and window boxes. Sweet pea blooms are easy to grow and continue to bloom continuously throughout the spring season. They are the official birth month flower for April.
With April showers come beautiful flowers… spring has arrived! One of our favorite things about spring is the surprise wildflower clusters that pop up along the side of the road and in those little cracks in the sidewalk. It is such a sweet surprise and the perfect illustration of something beautiful breaking through the barriers of past challenges, filling us with hope for a fresh new year full of possibilities.
Wedding flowers have to be white or ivory… Never use sunflowers… Carnations don’t go with weddings… Spring weddings shouldn’t use deep colors…
You probably haven’t spent much time hoping to get a “green ball” bouquet, but maybe you should! Green ball dianthus, also known as green trick, is a fun and whimsical flower that brings our wildest Dr. Seuss dreams to life!
"Kiss me over the garden gate" is a flower with a bloom that is as fun and whimsical as the name, and it seems the perfect option to spotlight during the month of love.
