No gift is complete without saying something special to mark the occasion — yep, even flowers! If you find yourself at a loss for them (no judgment, it happens to us all), our card messaging guide has your back. We’ll help you make all those summer moments memorable.
We don’t need to tell you how much summer brings the fresh blooms; all you need to do is look around your garden, bursting with seasonal bounty! We’re tapping into this inspired energy to help you pick just the right blossoms for each holiday, party, and milestone.
Summer is all about taking things outside to soak up the warm weather and refreshing vibes. A perfect example? Who doesn’t love summer BBQs, chock full of grilled meats, side salads, and the most refreshing beverages? Our favorite pro-tip: Add flowers for a full-on sensory experience.
Memorial Day has two sides: The first is remembering those who gave their lives in service to their country, which we hold space for every year. The second is spending time with our loved ones while appreciating all of the wonderful things we have. Balance both with bouquets, which amplify both moments just right.
One of summer’s most exciting occasions is, no doubt, graduation day! We can’t think of a better way to celebrate the bright futures of our favorite grads than with fresh blooms for all of the ceremonies, parties, and other big moments during step-up season. The more creative, the better, all day every day!
Obviously, we love our dads, full stop. But we also love the amazing men who stepped up just like dads, from amazing uncles and grandpas to teachers who helped us find ourselves when we needed it most. Father’s Day is when we show all of them the appreciation as brightly and as freely as they give it to us.
You might think you have Father’s Day gifting all sorted out, but we like keeping dads surprised year after year. Our favorite way to make his big day even better? Fresh florals, yes really — so many dads want flowers more than you’d ever expect, to the tune of about 60%!
For many of us, Independence Day means it’s time to break out the grill, invite our loved ones over for backyard fun, and enjoy the festivities late into the night. For all aspects of your celebration, arrangements in fun, holiday-themed colors add to the patriotic mood of July 4.
Memorial Day and Labor Day may start and end the summer party, but the warmest season has other occasions that should 100 percent be on your radar. We’re talking Red Rose Day (the perfect excuse to treat yourself), Just Because Day (as if you needed another excuse), and more!
Few things are more dear to us than our wonderful family members, which is why surprising them with a fresh bouquet is an obvious way to shout them out. It’s not even hard to come up with a laundry list of all the awesome things they’ve done to deserve your biggest “thank you!”
For as much as we adore our loved ones, the most important person in your life is you, every day of the year. So yes, you literally deserve your flowers, especially when you need to take a moment to tend to your tender spots. Does that include Relaxation Day? Of course!
Having a bunch of happy plants takes a dwelling and turns it into a home, complete with aesthetic appeal and health benefits. But don’t neglect your green garden when it’s time to head out for summer vacay! Fortunately, our guide helps make sure they won’t miss a beat while you’re globetrotting.
Airports are exciting when it’s time to go on an adventure or start a new chapter in a new place, but arriving in one after a long flight can be exhausting. That’s why we put together a sweet and savvy guide to welcoming loved ones with bouquets at the airport. Watch the stress melt away and the smiles start!
Imagine you had a whole month to show your partner just how much they mean to you. As it turns out, you absolutely do! August is Romance Month, and if you need inspo to spoil your forever person over these 31 sun-filled days, we’ve got you covered. Spoiler alert: Flowers are definitely involved.
We celebrate our pets every day (if you know, you know, pet parents). That being said, we’re always looking for an excuse to spoil our sweet fur babies totally rotten! That makes National Dog Day a favorite square on our August calendars, the perfect occasion to splurge on pet safe plants and blossoms for you and your best buddy.
It seems ironic to have Just Because Day on August 27th, right? That said, we’re not mad at the opportunity to have another reason to spoil our loved ones “just because.” If you need a little motivation to get inspired, our guide to giving flowers to your favorite people (including you) will get you started.
