Our mild climate accommodates plants that thrive in all four seasons, and we especially love to enjoying indoor plants that bloom in the winter. At <span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong><a style="color: #3366ff;" href="https://www.frenchflorist.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">French Florist</a></strong><strong>,</strong></span> our florists put together a list of our top five favorite plants that bloom naturally during the coldest season. </span><span id="more-1529"></span></p>
<h3><strong>1. Poinsettia</strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_1531" style="width: 260px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1531" loading="lazy" class="size-medium wp-image-1531" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/POINSETTIA-PLANT-GARDEN-250x300.jpg" alt="A gorgeous garden of Poinsettias and other complimenting plants and decorations in the warm theme and spirit of Christmas." width="250" height="300" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/POINSETTIA-PLANT-GARDEN-250x300.jpg 250w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/POINSETTIA-PLANT-GARDEN.jpg 392w" sizes="(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px"><p id="caption-attachment-1531" class="wp-caption-text">Poinsettia &amp; Plant Garden</p></div>
<p>It wouldn't be the holidays without this quintessential festive plant. For traditional holiday decor, we recommend white and <span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong><a style="color: #3366ff;" href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/holiday-plants-poinsettia-delivery-los-angeles/green-graden/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">red poinsettia plants</a></strong></span>, but you can also go for a slightly quirky&nbsp;take on the holiday tradition with poinsettias in hot pink, salmon, yellow, or even&nbsp;orange. Poinsettia flowers, which are actually the small yellow clusters at the center of the plant's brightly colored bracts (leaves), bloom in response to the shortening days in winter.</p>
<p>To keep yours vibrant through the season, be sure to place it in a location where it will receive plenty of sunlight and water it regularly, without ever letting the plant sit in standing water.</p>
<h3><strong>2. Kalanchoe</strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_1537" style="width: 310px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1537" loading="lazy" class="size-medium wp-image-1537" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Kalanchoe-Plant-with-Purple-Flowers-300x183.jpg" alt="Kalanchoe Plant with Purple Flowers" width="300" height="183" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Kalanchoe-Plant-with-Purple-Flowers-300x183.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Kalanchoe-Plant-with-Purple-Flowers-1200x731.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Kalanchoe-Plant-with-Purple-Flowers-768x468.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Kalanchoe-Plant-with-Purple-Flowers-1536x935.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Kalanchoe-Plant-with-Purple-Flowers-2048x1247.jpg 2048w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Kalanchoe-Plant-with-Purple-Flowers-493x300.jpg 493w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px"><p id="caption-attachment-1537" class="wp-caption-text">Kalanchoe</p></div>
<p>These pretty plants start blooming in autumn and will continue to flower until spring. Their tiny flowers pop out in clusters of bold colors like red, pink, orange, yellow, and white to keep all of winter vibrant.</p>
<p>A member of the succulent family, kalanchoe are fairly simple&nbsp;to cultivate. They need plenty of sun, which is easy to come by in southern California, and they&nbsp;tolerate drought well, which means they won't die if you forget about them. The worst thing you can do for a kalanchoe is water it too frequently.</p>
<h3><strong>3. Azalea</strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_1533" style="width: 284px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1533" loading="lazy" class="size-medium wp-image-1533" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/AZALEA-BASKET-274x300.jpg" alt="Bright pink azalea plants in wicker basket" width="274" height="300" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/AZALEA-BASKET-274x300.jpg 274w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/AZALEA-BASKET-768x842.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/AZALEA-BASKET.jpg 950w" sizes="(max-width: 274px) 100vw, 274px"><p id="caption-attachment-1533" class="wp-caption-text">Azalea Basket</p></div>
<p>Azaleas bloom abundantly with delicate, papery blossoms in a rainbow of colors, which are set against a backdrop of dark green foliage. We especially love them in deep <span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong><a style="color: #3366ff;" href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=860" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">shades of pink and rose</a></strong></span>. Grown indoors, they're cultivated for blooming in winter, but when planted outside, they usually flower in the late spring or early fall.</p>
<p>Although LA is just on the edge of being too warm for azaleas to thrive, if provided with enough shade and plenty of water, a potted azalea can be planted in an outdoor garden come spring.</p>
<h3><strong>4. Orchid</strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_1532" style="width: 260px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1532" loading="lazy" class="size-medium wp-image-1532" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/SINGLE-WHITE-PHALAENOPSIS-ORCHID-PLANTER-250x300.jpg" alt="A gorgeous, hand-selected, white Phalaenopsis Orchid plant displayed in an understated, stylishly elegant wooden box or ceramic container" width="250" height="300" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/SINGLE-WHITE-PHALAENOPSIS-ORCHID-PLANTER-250x300.jpg 250w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/SINGLE-WHITE-PHALAENOPSIS-ORCHID-PLANTER.jpg 392w" sizes="(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px"><p id="caption-attachment-1532" class="wp-caption-text">Single White Phalaenopsis Orchid</p></div>
<p><a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/orchids-los-angeles/white/">Orchids</a> are extra-sensitive to changes in temperatures, and when the mercury drops in winter, they begin to bloom. Orchids are one of our favorite plants for winter because of their perfectly timed blossoms and due to the sheer variety of orchids to choose from. An estimated 30,000 different orchid species blossom all around the world.</p>
<h3><strong>5. Amaryllis</strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_1536" style="width: 210px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1536" loading="lazy" class="wp-image-1536" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Amaryllis-Plant-with-Red-Blooms-252x300.jpg" alt="Amaryllis Plant with Red Blooms" width="200" height="238" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Amaryllis-Plant-with-Red-Blooms-252x300.jpg 252w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Amaryllis-Plant-with-Red-Blooms-768x914.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/12/Amaryllis-Plant-with-Red-Blooms.jpg 873w" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px"><p id="caption-attachment-1536" class="wp-caption-text">Amaryllis</p></div>
<p>Amaryllis plants are also perfect for winter and the holiday season. Carefully cultivated, their bulbs will bloom about six to eight weeks after they're first planted. This makes it easy to time the emergence of their beautiful, red blossoms for the holidays.</p>
<p>Amaryllis plants are cousins of the lily, which means they're beautiful and also poisonous. Although they're toxins aren't quite as potent as those of a lily, they can harm cats, dogs, and people. Be sure to display yours in a location that curious household pets and small children won't be able to reach.</p>
<h2><strong>Winter Wonders in Los Angeles's Growing Zone 10</strong></h2>
<p>In Los Angeles, we and our plants benefit from a relatively pleasant growing zone. According to the <span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong><a style="color: #3366ff;" href="https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/PHZMWeb/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">USDA's</a></strong></span> hardiness chart, our area's average extreme minimum temperatures are fairly high when compared to the rest of the country. This means we can cultivate&nbsp;a greater variety of plants in our outdoor gardens because they don't have to be quite so hardy to withstand temperatures that fall well below freezing.</p>
<p>Since winter days still grow shorter and the weather cooler, we still get to enjoy the seasonal beauty of plants that bloom in the winter like poinsettias and orchids. For more information about the best plants to grow and gift during the winter months, we welcome you to contact a <span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong><a style="color: #3366ff;" href="https://www.frenchflorist.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">French Florist</a></strong></span> location near you for personalized winter plant recommendations and expert advice.</p>

<p>When Carl Rittner opened his School of Floral Design in Boston, he had the vision of teaching students to take designing flowers to a whole new level. Considered a champion of the industry and a pioneer in the field, Rittner's students wished to honor him in a special way, and they began to observe Floral Design Day on February 28th, Rittner' <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/birthday/">birthday</a>. In 1995 the mayor of Boston made the day an official holiday for the city, but the idea has since spread across the United States. Talented floral professionals right here in Los Angeles daily create works of art in a living medium, making life just a little more beautiful.&nbsp;<span id="more-918"></span><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-921" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/02/an-267x300.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/02/an-267x300.jpg 267w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/02/an.jpg 400w" alt="designing flowers" width="267" height="300" loading="lazy" /><br />Floral design through the centuries has reflected the culture and society of the era. To this day, the bouquets and arrangements are designed in styles reminiscent of the past. For instance, in Victorian times flowers were used to send secret messages. Because each flower meant something specific, large lavish bouquets of mixed flowers were commonplace. Today, an unkempt wildflower arrangement would resemble&nbsp;a floral design of those times. Another popular design today. that of tropical flowers in modern designs can be traced back to the Art Deco era (approximately 1925). Sharp lines and geometric angles were all the rage in the art world, which influenced design of all kinds.</p>
<p>The Art Nouveau movement also looked to geometric shapes for inspiration but concentrated on the characteristic 'violent curves' and movement captured in the design. Curvaceous containers, soft petaled flowers such as <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/orchids/">orchids</a>, and natural elements such as curly willow add to the fluid feel of the design, with none of the sharp linear aspect of the prior style. &nbsp;Another influence on orchid and exotic flower design is the Japanese discipline of ikebana.</p>
<p>Designing flowers today is a truly artistic endeavor that incorporates influences from all times and places. Whether you prefer the lavish romance of the wildflowers, or the delicate movement of the orchid branch, you can trust the experts at <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a> to create the perfect design.</p>

<h3>Secrets behind rose colors</h3>
<p>As you choose your <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> and flowers for Valentine's Day, make sure you are sending the right meaning. Rose colors carry traditional meanings. Here's what you need to know before you order your roses&nbsp;from <a title="French Florist Main Website" href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Say 'I Love You' with Red</strong></p>
<p>If you are sending flowers to say 'I love you,' then red roses are the choice. The red rose has shown the spirit of love and romance for centuries, with the idea that love blooms stronger than thorns. If you are giving to someone you love deeply, make sure the arrangement includes some red roses.</p>
<p><strong>Celebrate Young Love with White</strong></p>
<p>White is the color of purity and innocence, and as such white roses represent young innocent love. White can also represent a new beginning, making it a great choice for the romance you are just starting this Valentine's Day.</p>
<p><strong>Say 'thank You' With Pink or Peach</strong></p>
<p>Pink roses show joy and gratefulness. If you are giving roses to someone you admire, but are not yet to the point of loving, then pink roses can be a great choice. They are sweet, delicate, romantic but not quite as bold as a brilliant red. Of course, if you are teetering between love and admiration, consider red-tipped pink to cover both. If you are simply saying '<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/thank-you/">thank you</a>' without the romance, peach is a great choice. Peach shows deep appreciation and gratitude, without the romantic twist.</p>
<div id="attachment_351" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 273px;"><img class="wp-image-351 size-medium" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2015/02/zoom_TF3501EH439720-263x300.jpg" alt="Rose and Lily Splendor" width="263" height="300" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-351" />
<p id="caption-attachment-351" class="wp-caption-text">Rose and Lily Splendor</p>
</div>
<p><strong>Give Tribute to Friendship with Yellow</strong></p>
<p>Valentine's Day is not just for lovers. It can be a great opportunity to celebrate the love of friendship as well. Yellow roses are the traditional rose for <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/friendship/">friendship</a>, and <a title="rose and lily splendor" href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=1900">Rose and Lily Splendor</a> has yellow roses paired with bright pink lilies.</p>
<p><strong>Declare Love at First Sight with Purple</strong></p>
<p>The mystery of purple roses embraces the reality that sometimes, love at first sight does happen. Proclaim this fact with a violet display of roses.</p>
<p><strong>Celebrate Passion with Orange</strong></p>
<p>Orange roses can be a symbol of energy and passion. You can give orange roses this Valentine's Day to showcase your excitement for your loved one and your passionate romance. Salmon is another color with this meaning, but with a slightly more pink tinge.</p>
<div id="attachment_352" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 278px;"><img class="wp-image-352 size-medium" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2015/02/zoom_RP99330x37010021114331120910113822-268x300.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 268px) 100vw, 268px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2015/02/zoom_RP99330x37010021114331120910113822-268x300.jpg 268w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2015/02/zoom_RP99330x37010021114331120910113822.jpg 330w" alt="Rose Indulgence" width="268" height="300" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-352" />
<p id="caption-attachment-352" class="wp-caption-text">Rose Indulgence</p>
</div>
<p><strong>Mix It Up for Multiple Messages</strong></p>
<p>Maybe you are looking to say more than one thing this Valentine's Day. Why not mix it up with a mixed bouquet of roses. Pair red with orange to proclaim passion and romance, or white and pink to proclaim young love, admiration and budding romance. <a title="rose indulgence" href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/valentines-day/hydrangea-roses/">Rose Indulgence</a> pairs red and pink with beautiful white hydrangeas for a stunning display of love and admiration.</p>
<p>No matter what color is the right message for your loved one, French Florist has a boquet to match!</p>

The ephemeral quality of this gorgeous flower adds to its allure and desirability. May and June are the months where there is the most availability, but due to its popularity, many nurseries offer early-, mid-, and late-blooming varieties so they can be enjoyed for as long as possible. Peonies make amazing cut flowers, and their bloom and fragrance can last for days in a vase.</p>

<h2>Name Origin</h2>
<p>The peony has two origin stories dating back to Greece. One tells the story of Paeon, a student of Asclepius (the Greek God of Medicine and Healing), who used milk from the peony root to heal Pluto. Asclepius became angry and jealous that his pupil was outshining him and decided to kill him. Zeus interfered and protected Paeon from the wrath of Asclepius by transforming him into the peony flower.</p>
<p>The other origin story describes a day when Apollo was flirting with a nymph named Paeonia, who was shy and bashful, and became embarrassed when she noticed Aphrodite watching them. Angered by the nymph attracting Apollo's attention, Aphrodite turned Paeonia into a flower.</p>
<h2>History</h2>
<p>Peonies date back to 1,000 BC when they first appeared in Chinese gardens. The people of China then began cultivating peonies, originally for flavoring food and medicinal purposes, but then for their beauty and elegance during the Tang Dynasty. Peonies were associated with great wealth and royalty and, from around 618 to 907 AD, were bred in the Imperial courts and became an essential part of daily court life.</p>
<p>In the 11th century, the people of Japan fell in love with the beautiful peony and began growing them for their beauty. France and England jumped on the bandwagon in the 18th century when they began cultivating peonies for their aesthetic beauty and sweet fragrance.</p>

<h2>Peony Purchasing Tips</h2>
<p>To get the most out of its beauty and maximize its vase life, here are some quick tips on choosing a peony.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Purchase While Still in Bud Form</strong><br />This way you can fully enjoy the blooming process and they will last longer than if already in bloom.</li>
<li><strong>Make Sure Their Leaves are Healthy<br /></strong>Quality peonies should have no damage to leaves such as blemishes, black or brown spots, yellowing, or signs of pests or disease.</li>
<li><strong>Select Stems That are Clean and Sturdy<br /></strong>Peonies with soft and discolored stems often are a sign of bacteria in the plant.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Caring for Your Fresh-Cut Peonies</h2>
<ul>
<li>Before placing your fresh blooms in a vase, cut diagonally about an inch off the bottom of each stem and remove any leaves that fall below the waterline.</li>
<li>Place the cut stems in a clean vase that has at least three inches of room temperature water.</li>
<li>Keep an eye on the water level as peonies drink up the water quickly. Clean and refill with water as needed.</li>
<li>Avoid putting peonies in direct sunlight as this may damage them.</li>
<li>To delay blooming, place peonies in a cold and dimly lit room, or in a dry area within your refrigerator away from fruits and veggies.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Flowers Similar to the Peony</h2>
<p>When peonies are unavailable, but you still crave the look, elegance, and fullness of this gorgeous blossom, rest assured, as there are other floral varieties you can turn to that have similar big blooms. In place of peonies try:</p>
<ul>
<li>Large garden roses</li>

<li>Carnations</li>
<li>Camellias</li>
<li>Double tulips</li>
<li>Dahlias</li>
<li>Hydrangea</li>
</ul>

Once the boxes are unpacked and the items put away, there is a period of adjustment in which we try to make a house, a home. Housewarming parties are designed to help the new homeowners to stock up on necessities and add personality with home decor. At French Florist, we are here to help you with beautiful floral gifts and plants which will add just the right touch to someone's new place.</p>
<p><strong>A Bit of History:</strong> Before electricity was available, housewarming parties were held to quite literally make sure the house was warm during the winter months guests brought armloads of firewood as gifts. Now we tend to focus more on filling a new home with warmth and <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/friendship/">friendship</a>.&nbsp;<span id="more-1067"></span></p>

For one thing, their delicate shape and elegant presentation allow them to blend well into many styles of home decor, from country chic to urban contemporary. They look just as comfortable on the kitchen windowsill as they do on the dining room table, and with a few basic rules to follow, they will be beautiful for a long time.</p>
<p>Another great choice for housewarming gifts is a green plant. Plants also fit well into any decor scheme and color palette, and not only look beautiful but help to keep the air in your home clean and healthy. Plants can be placed in any room of the house, or even moved to an outdoor patio or porch. Whether you are welcoming new neighbors or congratulating a friend on the purchase of a new home, you can't go wrong with a <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/green-plants/">green plant from French Florist</a>.</p>

A BEAUTIFUL BOUQUET FOR THE BFF

<div class="entry-content bla">
<p style="color: #333333;">Flowers are a universal gift that always brings a smile to the recipient's face. A<a style="color: #0782c1;" href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.frenchflorist.com">&nbsp;floral bouquet</a>&nbsp;makes an awesome gift for any occasion and is even more appreciated when given 'just because.' Flowers can defuse tension, eliminate worry and take away the pain of disappointment. In short, there's nothing like receiving a surprise floral arrangement at the office to highlight a person's day.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;"><strong>The Awesome Gift of Flowers</strong></p>
<p style="color: #333333;">Sending flowers to a friend, loved one or co-worker at the office is a wonderful gesture of love and appreciation. The office is a perfect setting for someone to receive a beautiful floral arrangement, as it puts him or her in the spotlight in a positive way. Receiving flowers in a public place such as the office makes the recipient feel special and shows colleagues and co-workers that someone cares. People appreciate being acknowledged for who they are and being given credit for their accomplishments. A thoughtful gift of a floral bouquet can accomplish this purpose in a personal and touching way.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;"><strong>How to Send Flowers</strong></p>
<p style="color: #333333;">Modern technology makes it easier than ever to send flowers to friends and loved ones, no matter where they are.&nbsp;We&nbsp;offer pre-made floral arrangements for all occasions to include <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/birthday/">birthdays</a>, anniversaries, holidays, weddings, birth of a baby and more for you to choose from for online delivery. You can also personalize a bouquet to commemorate a promotion, congratulate someone on a new job, celebrate a retirement or simply acknowledge a long term <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/friendship/">friendship</a>.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">After choosing the flowers you desire, and placing the order, we will make sure your delivery has the best possible impact.&nbsp;We make sending flowers fast and easy, making it more convenient for busy people to acknowledge family and friends' special occasions.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">Once you start gifting flowers to others, you won't want to stop. When you gift flowers, you have the personal satisfaction of knowing you are making the world a better place by brightening someone's day. That makes your gift worth it all.</p>
