    <p>In Los Angeles, we're lucky enough to live in a climate where we can enjoy flowers that bloom throughout the year, but there's something unmistakably unique about the flowers that bloom during spring. At <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">French Florist</a>, we love to celebrate the season of rebirth and new beginnings with batches of the most beautiful&nbsp;seasonal flowers, and we can't wait to share all our new designs with you.</p>
    <h2><strong>Fun Facts about Springtime and Flowers</strong></h2>
    <p>This year, the vernal equinox and first official day of spring is March 19th, but plants don't know that. Flowers know when it's time to bloom because they can sense the lengthening days and warmer temperatures.</p>
    <p>In the United States, we mark the beginning of spring with the equinox, but people in other places measure the seasons with other means, like the lunar calendar. In Japan, people take their cue from their national flower and don't recognize the official beginning of spring until the cherry blossoms bloom.</p>

    </div>
    <h2><strong>When the First and Last Flowers of Spring Bloom</strong></h2>
    <p>The earliest spring flowers can actually start blooming well before spring begins, even in cold climates. Crocuses, snowdrops, and Lenten <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> all push their way through the frost to bloom as early as late January!</p>
    <p>The rest of the 'early' spring bloomers like daffodils, hyacinths, pansies, and tulips emerge toward the end of March and beginning of April. Late spring bloomers need more sunshine and warmth before they'll flower. These include roses, lilacs, bluebells, <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/daisies/">daisies</a>, and peonies.</p>
    <h2><strong>Our 7 Favorite Spring Flowers for Celebrating the Season of New Beginnings</strong></h2>
    <p>So many lovely flowers bloom during spring that it's tough to select just a few as <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/favorites/">favorites</a>. We picked the following blossoms because of their unique beauty, alluring fragrances, and significant symbolic meanings make them easy for everyone&nbsp;to love.</p>
    <div id="attachment_1619" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1619" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-2048x2048.jpg 2048w" alt="Daffodils" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1619" />
    <p id="caption-attachment-1619" class="wp-caption-text">Daffodils</p>
    </div>
    <h3><strong>1. Daffodils</strong></h3>
    <p>With their trumpet-shaped blooms in bright yellow, orange, and white, daffodils are incredibly cheerful to look at. They are perhaps the flower that's the most emblematic of spring because, like the season itself, daffodils also symbolize renewal, rebirth, and new beginnings.</p>
    <div id="attachment_1622" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1622" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-768x769.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth.jpg 1313w" alt="Hyacinth" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1622" />
    <p id="caption-attachment-1622" class="wp-caption-text">Hyacinth</p>
    </div>
    <h3><strong>2. Hyacinth</strong></h3>
    <p>Hyacinths emerge early in spring with cones of flowers in blue, white, pink, and purple. Although they're lovely to admire, they're mostly adored for their pretty floral fragrance. You only need a couple of hyacinths to completely perfume a room.</p>
    <div id="attachment_1618" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1618" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-1198x1200.jpg 1198w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-768x770.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-1533x1536.jpg 1533w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-2044x2048.jpg 2044w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-299x300.jpg 299w" alt="Camellia" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1618" />
    <p id="caption-attachment-1618" class="wp-caption-text">Camellia</p>
    </div>
    <h3><strong>3. Camellias</strong></h3>
    <p>Camellia shrubs blossom with gloriously gorgeous flowers each spring. These beauties come in red, white, and pink and respectively symbolize deep desire, adoration, and longing.</p>
    <div id="attachment_1617" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1617" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-2048x2048.jpg 2048w" alt="Bluebells" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1617" />
    <p id="caption-attachment-1617" class="wp-caption-text">Bluebells</p>
    </div>
    <h3><strong>4. Bluebells</strong></h3>
    <p>These late-spring bloomers are worth the wait. They grow wildly in different regions around the United States and are also a favorite cultivated by flower suppliers everywhere. Several bell-shaped blooms hang gracefully from a single stem. The weight of the flowers causes the entire plant to bow gently toward the ground, which may be why bluebells have come to symbolize humility.</p>
    <div id="attachment_1629" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1629" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses.jpg 1387w" alt="Roses" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1629" />
    <p id="caption-attachment-1629" class="wp-caption-text">Roses</p>
    </div>
    <h3><strong>5. Roses</strong></h3>
    <p>Roses are a favorite all year, but they're actually in-season during spring. In the springtime, you can get the freshest, most beautiful flowers you'll ever see. Plus, they're way less expensive to buy in large quantities. This makes them a perfect choice for a spring wedding. Roses also have a rich history as a means of communicating in the Victorian Era. Each color has a different meaning. For example, pink represents gentle admiration, yellow is for <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/friendship/">friendship</a>, and lavender represents love at first sight.</p>
    <div id="attachment_1625" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1625" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies.jpg 1632w" alt="Pansies" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1625" />
    <p id="caption-attachment-1625" class="wp-caption-text">Pansies</p>
    </div>
    <h3><strong>6. Pansies</strong></h3>
    <p>Pansies bloom early in spring and have flowers that resemble happy, little faces. They come in a wide variety of colors and color combinations, making them fun to grow in large flower beds. They also look quite pretty as a single flower in a miniature pot. Pansies symbolize admiration and free thought.</p>
    <div id="attachment_1631" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1631" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-2048x2048.jpg 2048w" alt="Tulips" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1631" />
    <p id="caption-attachment-1631" class="wp-caption-text">Tulips</p>
    </div>
    <h3><strong>7. Tulips</strong></h3>
    <p>It's impossible to list our favorite spring flowers without mentioning <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/tulips/">tulips</a>. These beauties are just about as strongly associated with the season as daffodils. They bloom in endless varieties and work perfectly in a garden, container, or floral arrangement. Each color of the tulip has a different meaning. Yellow, representing happy thoughts, is our favorite.</p>
    <h2><strong>Welcome Springtime with Indoor Flowers to Celebrate the Beauty Outside</strong></h2>
    <p>The best way to celebrate the season of renewal, rebirth, and new beginnings is to decorate your home with a bouquet of fresh spring flowers from <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">French Florist</a>. A single vase of flowers will brighten your home, sweeten the air, and create an uplifting atmosphere to elevate your mood.</p>

It is indeed poignant when we cross paths with someone only for a few weeks or months, yet the relationship results in a lifelong impact. This May, two special observances give us the opportunity to recognize and celebrate teachers and nurses. Both of these professionals are known for their selfless attitude and dedicated passion for helping others. French Florist has the floral designs that will return the favor and let them know how&nbsp;remarkable they really are!</p>
<p><strong>Mark Your Calendar Important Dates to Appreciate Nurses and Thank Teachers:</strong><br />National Nurses Week runs from May 6-12, with National Nurses Day being celebrated on May 6.<br />National Teachers Week is May 7-13, with National Teachers Day officially recognized on May 9.<span id="more-969"></span></p>

Teachers inspire students to reach for and realize their true potential, nurses provide comfort and hope while administering expert medical care. Teachers are with us during the normal days of our lives, while a nurse may represent an unexpected event. But they share many similar characteristics as well for instance, they each have the ability to influence people for the better, to make a compassionate impact, and to touch our hearts with their&nbsp;dedication and <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/friendship/">friendship</a>. Is there a nurse or teacher you have been meaning to thank? This is the perfect opportunity.</p>
<p><strong><br />Be Social About It:</strong>&nbsp;Share positive photos and stories of your favorite teachers on May 9 and don't forget to add the hashtag #ThankATeacher.</p>
<p>Teachers and nurses go about their days quietly executing heroic acts destined to make a lifetime impact on other people this month, do something to make a meaningful impact on these unsung Los Angeles heroes.&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a> is honored to be your partner in giving them the credit they deserve.</p>

<p>Due to their beauty, mood-boosting, and air-purifying qualities, houseplants have become very popular. If you're new to having them, though, then it's important to make sure you place your plant in an area where it can get plenty of light. Remember, though, what seems like a well-lit room to you may still not have adequate amounts of light reach your plant to ensure it grows like it should. If your plant is exhibiting any of the below marks of insufficient lighting, then read on for more helpful hints and tips to ensure your plants flourish and thrive so you can enjoy their benefits. When you're finished, peruse <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span style="font-size: 1rem;">French Florist's</span></a><span style="font-size: 1rem;"> plant catalog for more beautiful plants to bring into your home.</span></p>
<h2><strong>Evidence of Insufficient Light on Your Plants</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Leggy</strong></h3>
<p>Long, slender stems are known as 'leggy' and are a sure sign your plant requires more light. In a plant's quest for survival, they will stretch and reach to capture as much light as possible. Leggy stems also have wide spaces between adjacent leaves. This space is called the internodal space and is much smaller in healthy plants. Large internodal spaces are symptoms of a light-starved plant.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Small Leaves</strong></h3>
<p>Scarcity of light means a plant isn't getting enough energy to grow its leaves to the proper size. To conserve the small amount of energy it is getting, a plant will produce smaller leaves. Match new growth to older growth to ascertain if there is a stark contrast in size.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Leaning</strong></h3>
<p>A lopsided or leaning plant signals the entire plant is not getting satisfactory sunlight. Plants will grow and stretch to absorb as much light as possible and this could lead to a one-sided plant. Make sure your plant is in a well-lit area and give it turn every time you water it so all the leaves get equal amounts of light.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Abnormal Leaf Color</strong></h3>
<p>Light green or yellow leaves that start to drop off are signs of poor lighting. Without decent lighting, chlorophyll, which gives a leaf its green color, cannot carry out the photosynthesis process which keeps leaves green and healthy. Also, if your plant has variegated coloring, in an effort to absorb as much light as possible, the colored leaves will revert to all green.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><strong>Slowed Growth</strong></h3>
<p>During the spring and summer plants should exhibit a significant amount of growth. If yours does not, then it could indicate weak lighting. No new growth of stunted growth are warnings a plant is not receiving sufficient energy from light to become lush and big.</p>
<h2><strong>Getting the Light Right</strong></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/shutterstock_301462706.jpg"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-6762" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/shutterstock_301462706.jpg" alt="Healthy Plants" width="450" height="300" loading="lazy" /></a></p>
<p>As it is possible for a plant to receive too much light also, resulting in scorched tips or 'burnt' patches on the leaves, getting the lighting right for a plant may be tricky. Only sun-worshipping plants should be in direct lighting for 6 or more hours a day. These would be cacti, <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/succulents/">succulents</a>, and palm plants. Otherwise, indirect bright light works best for most other plants. Just realize that every foot away from a window that a plant is moved to is exponentially decreased light for the plant. You may not see it, but the plant will.</p>
<p>Try out different sunny places in your home and if you're unable to move your plant to a better lit spot, then get a grow light, which will allow you to place your plant anywhere. Grow lights will ensure your plant gets enough light to remain healthy and happy.</p>

HOW TO KNOW YOUR PLANT IS GETTING PLENTY OF SUNLIGHT

Succulents

<div class="entry-content bla">
<h3 style="color: #333333;"><strong>Buying Succulents, a Great Decision</strong></h3>
<p style="color: #333333;">There are a wide variety of <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/succulents/">succulents</a> a person can choose from, but almost all of them have greater practical use than the majority of other house plants people choose to use for ambiance. Many succulents have leaves that create oils and flesh that have medicinal uses for people, the aloe vera plant for example. The Agave plant is used to make liquor and asparagus is a delicious vegetable with very unique flavor.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">While not all succulents are popular as house plants or lawn and garden decor, those that are are generally hardy and can survive without a great deal of care. However, there are a few things to keep in mind once your succulents arrive.</p>
<h3 style="color: #333333;"><strong>Succulent Faux Pas</strong></h3>
<p style="color: #333333;">Succulents are meaty plants with an appearance that more closely resemble the stems and leaves of cacti than plants that grow in pluvial regions.&nbsp;The purpose of the evolutionary design of succulents is to save water in order to survive periods of drought.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">That being the case, there are a two things one must remember about &nbsp;succulents:</p>
<p style="color: #333333;"><strong>Too Much Water, Not Enough Sun</strong>&nbsp;' One of the easiest ways to kill a succulent is to give it too much of the wrong thing. For most house, lawn and garden plants, too much sun and not enough water can spell disaster.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">Succulents are different in this regard. Too much water can cause the leaves to bloat and eventually bend and break. Not enough sun can cause the plant to suffer from bacterial attack among other diseases.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">A good rule of thumb is to treat your succulents the opposite of how you treat a house plant. Be modest with the water and excessive with the sunlight. The University of California's Sonoma County Master Gardeners calls succulents, 'the camels of the plant world (1).'</p>
<h3 style="color: #333333;"><strong>Succulents Thrive Under Pressure, Particularly Cold</strong></h3>
<p style="color: #333333;">In addition to having the aptitude to survive without a great deal of water and under the intensity of the sun, succulents can also manage large temperature swings. While they thrive in the hot desert sun, they are also accustomed to the freezing cold spells of desert winters and dramatic daily temperature drops desert nights often bring.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">As a result, do not be afraid to allow your succulents to fight through some cold weather!</p>
<p style="color: #333333;"><strong>Treat 'em Like a Cowboy</strong></p>
<p style="color: #333333;">If you think of your succulents as rough and tumble men, give them their space and the bare essentials, your succulents with thrive. Try to over care for them, and succulents generally don't do as well!</p>

WHAT TO SAY ON FATHER's DAY CARDS WHEN SENDING FLOWERS

Roses

<div class="entry-content bla">
<p style="color: #333333;">When it comes to choosing a summer flower to fill up your table <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/designer-vases/">vases</a>, to give as a gift to a loved one, or to adorn a reception hall for a wedding, no other flower dominates the scene except the rose. Roses have been a symbol of love and beauty for generations as this flower has been around for over 35 million years. So it isn't any wonder why people choose to have such a wonderful and fragrant flower in their homes during the summer.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">As you pick out a rose product from&nbsp;<a style="color: #0782c1;" href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a>, whether it is a dozen red <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> for someone special or a few long stem yellow roses to brighten the house, make sure to take care of them immediately. The sooner you care for the cut roses, the longer they will last. Here at French Florist, we love to offer people the latest tips for caring for cut flowers. Don't simply assume that the way you treat your roses will be the same as you treat your lilies, marigolds, or other flowers. Each cut flower is different as each one needs special care tailored to their particular species.</p>
<h2 style="font-weight: normal; color: #333333;">Caring For Cut Roses</h2>
<p style="color: #333333;">After you purchase the cut flowers from French Florist, you need to get them in water immediately, even if the flower will be a gift for someone later. Roses in particular need to keep hydrated to last for a week or more. The moment you get the flowers in the house, put them in a container of water as you can then get ready to prepare them for your vase.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">Prepare your vase by washing it out and filling it with lukewarm water. The water temperature should be around 100 degrees ' about the same temperature if you are soaking in a nice relaxing bath. Place the plant food that we provide with your cut roses into the water by following the package directions.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">Next, cut rose stems using a non-serrated knife. You want to cut the roses with the stems under lukewarm water. Go up about an inch and trim off the bottom at an angle. Then remove any leaves and thorns that will be under the vase water to prevent bacteria from forming.</p>
<p style="color: #333333;">Now you can place the roses into the vase. To prolong the life of the roses, you want to place them in fresh water every day and cut the stems every other day. Remember to clean out the vase and add new flower food as you'll be amazed at just how long the roses will last.</p>

Throughout the year, <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> are used to say 'I love you' or 'I'm sorry,' but this month, roses represent celebration! Depending on your relationship with the recipient, an appropriate color of rose can convey a personalized message. Assigning meaning to flowers was an idea that originated in the Middle East thousands of years ago when women used flowers to communicate when they were otherwise not allowed to speak. The tradition of exchanging flowers as a means of communication came to Europe during the Victorian Era and was often used in high society. Today, roses still carry the air of a special occasion; they still generally mark occasions that are important to us.</p>

To celebrate these <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/birthday/">birthdays</a>, carnations are a fantastic gift. This is the official birth flower for the month, and these lovely blooms have an extensive history and a rich symbolism that stretches back to ancient times. Carnations have been cultivated and enjoyed for over 2,000 years.</p>
<p>Throughout this time, these gorgeous blooms have been carefully grown to produce a variety of colors, including pinks, reds, yellows and more. These different colors have all become associated with different emotions and life events. Pink carnations, for example, are strongly associated with the undying love of a mother. Red carnations are used to represent affection, admiration and love. White carnations are also used for love, but they can also be used to say, good luck. These flowers can be used throughout the month of January to celebrate birthdays, as well as on Mother's Day, St. Patrick's Day and Teacher's Day.</p>
<p>Those interested in giving carnations to those celebrating their birthdays this month should consider some of the many arrangements that we have to offer at French Florist. Here are three of our <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/favorites/">favorites</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=1900">Rose and Lily Splendor</a></p>
<p>This arrangement combines dainty <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> with the rich colors of lilies and carnations to create a gorgeous bouquet that will look fantastic on a coffee table or an end table. They will help to make the entire room feel festive and ready for the birthday celebration.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2018">Birthday Balloon Basket</a></p>
<p>This might be the perfect gift for saying Happy Birthday to a January birthday. The bouquet itself includes alstroemeria, carnations, chrysanthemums and roses, creating a variety of textures and colors that make the room look spectacular. The balloons and the lively basket used for the flowers make the gift that much more celebratory and will surely put a smile on the face of any recipient.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2022">Garden Comforts</a></p>
<p>This basket arrangement is a wonderful way to light up the room. January might not be commonly associated with spring, but with this bouquet it will feel just like it. The carnations and larkspur are perfectly complemented with a small bird in a nest that looks so realistic you can almost hear it tweeting.</p>

THE BEST FLOWERS FOR A PICNIC OR PLAYDATE

<div class="entry-content bla">

<p>September <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/birthday/">birthdays</a> are an excellent time to celebrate someone's life- who they are, what theyve accomplished, what they mean to you. One special way to honor your September honoree is with gifts inspired by the sapphire, September's birthstone, or asters, September's birth flower. You can trust the team at French Florist to create beautiful birthday bouquets!&nbsp;<span id="more-1051"></span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Sapphires are typically most valuable in shades of brilliant blue. They have long been considered to bring wisdom, protection and even a bit of good luck. They have often been associated with royalty and the social elite ancient kings wore them around their necks to protect themselves from harm, while priests have worn them to receive divine wisdom. The great explorer Sir Richard Francis Burton carried a sapphire with him for good fortune while traveling, and even Prince Charles gave Lady Diana Spencer a sapphire engagement ring. If you would like to create a bouquet inspired by the sapphire, you can look to delphinium, hydrangea, and larkspur, all of which grow in shades of blue.</span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2888"><img class="alignleft wp-image-1056 size-full" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/fre.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 949px) 100vw, 949px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/fre.jpg 949w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/fre-250x300.jpg 250w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/fre-768x922.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/fre-853x1024.jpg 853w" alt="September birthdays" width="949" height="1139" loading="lazy" /></a></p>
<p>Likewise, September asters also have much history and lore connected to them. Asters get their name from the Greek word for 'star, and many stories include a connection between asters and stars. For example, one legend proposes that Virgo cast stardust all throughout the earth. Another claims that when the goddess Asterea wept, asters bloomed where her tears fell.</p>
<p>Asters bloom in the late summer and early fall, and thus make appropriate ambassadors for September birthdays.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/a-perfect-day-flower-designs-los-angeles/"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-1054 size-full" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/FF2.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/FF2.jpg 950w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/FF2-257x300.jpg 257w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/FF2-768x898.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/FF2-876x1024.jpg 876w" alt="September birthdays" width="950" height="1111" loading="lazy" /></a></p>
<p>This brilliant display of color, featured above, includes deep blue hydrangea (a nod to sapphires) with pink Gerber <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/daisies/">daisies</a>, yellow <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/sunflowers/">sunflowers</a>, orange <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> and lilies- <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/a-perfect-day-flower-designs-los-angeles/">A Perfect Day</a> for a birthday surprise!
