Discover Fall Treasures
Labor Day, the traditional signal for the end of summer, has passed, and the autumnal equinox is just around the corner. Soon summer’s warm breezes will yield to the nippy gusts of fall, and the vibrant green leaves adorning every tree will explode into yellows, oranges and reds, signaling an imminent descent to the grass below. The chill touch of autumn is coming, and with it, the beautiful flowers of fall!
These colorful blooms, chrysanthemums, asters, sunflowers, snapdragons and many more combine to offer florists a colorful palette with which to paint their floral portraits. Search for motivation in the infinite swirl of opportunities, receive inspiration in nature’s gorgeous exhibition and be roused by the swift changing of the season.
There are a world of treasures to be found this fall. Where will you find yours?

Still Time to Order Flowers for Grandparents Day
Grandparents Day is the perfect time to show your grandparents what they mean to you and your family. Mothers and Fathers Day are always big celebrations for showing that we care, so forgetting about Grandparents Day this year isn’t an option.
In 1978, President Jimmy Carter dedicated the first Sunday after Labor Day as National Grandparents Day. As it is a nationally recognized holiday, let’s take the time to honor our family and learn about ours roots. Consider visiting with your grandparents and listening carefully to those oft-told stories. Ask questions that dig deeper about a time that is quickly disappearing. Our children learn about their heritage and gain respect for their elders during these visits so make it a good one. Have grandma write down her favorite recipe or have grandpa show you his coin collection. You’ll be happy to make some new memories.
