The 2018 theme is #PressforProgress, and it harkens back to the beginnings of this worldwide celebration when the focus was on gaining voting rights for women. The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist&nbsp;</a>creative team is always mindful of the occasion or circumstance for which we're coming up with floral designs, and International Women's Day is no exception.</p>
<p><span id="more-1163"></span>We're showcasing&nbsp;<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/super-values-los-angeles/cymbidium-orchid-bouquet/">A Lovely Burst of Beautiful Blooms</a>. The colors of this arrangement are the same colors that the Women's Social and Political Union used in the early 1900s in their campaign to win women the right to vote. We chose Cymbidium orchids, fragrant stock, Lisianthus, Bells of Ireland, and other floral accents in green, white and purple. The combination of flower sizes and shapes in a compact square vase makes a bold statement that won't go unnoticed, and the colors of the flowers are especially relevant because of their association with the early 20th century Suffragettes.</p>

We're living in a difficult time where moral and ethical beliefs often collide. No one can deny the importance of supporting women, or of recognizing them for their accomplishments and the hard work, it takes for them to get to the places where they are now. Every woman needs to be appreciated, and on International Women's Day, expressions of gratitude, a show of support, and a willingness to become an active participant in the worldwide crusade to guarantee gender parity show the women in your life that you're their valuable ally.</span></p>

It is presently the national flower of Mexico and has been cultivated throughout the world to have over 14,000 varieties today.</p>
<p>Dahlias are famous for their bright, colorful continually-blooming flowers that delight viewers year-round. It comes in variety of sizes, colors and shapes, making it popular with gardeners as well as florists. Its beauty inspired the Spanish who saw it in Mexico, took it to their home country and caused its eventual spread and proliferation in Europe.</p>
<p><strong>Dahlia Description and Characteristics</strong></p>
<p>There can be tremendous differences in the various dahlia species. Color, size, petal shape, height and number of petal rows can all vary widely. They grow in smaller varieties just 1 to 3 feet with flowers 2 to 4 inches in diameter. However, there are also much larger species that grow 6 feet tall with stunning flowers that can get up to one foot in diameter.</p>
<p>One of the most impressive characteristics of the dahlia flower is its ringed petals. Flower color of the dahlia can vary quite a bit, and they are seen in white, pink, yellow, red, orange and purple. Flowers are often solid in color, but they can also be patterned in stripes or have different colors at the edges. Petals can be round or pointed, straight or curled at the edges, long or short, uniform or spaced irregularly. There is quite literally a dahlia for every taste, style and preference.</p>
<p><strong>Dahlia Symbolism and Meaning</strong></p>
<p>The dahlia flower came to inspire profound symbolic meaning as it grew in popularity in the Victorian era. It continues to express strong personal sentiments today when used in d'cor or given as a gift. While meanings had religious connections centuries ago, today it brings a wild, untamed energy to more traditional garden and gift arrangements. It can indicate an era of change, exciting travel plans or a desire to unleash one's 'wild side' a bit more.</p>
<p>Mixed and blended with other flowers, the meaning of dahlia is tempered and more balanced. An arrangement that includes softer blooms like <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a>, calla lilies and tulips can symbolize dignity, elegance and a commitment in marriage. Dahlia also blends well with autumn blooms in <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/los-angeles-fall-flowers/">fall flower arrangements</a>; consider giving the dahlia along with daisies, asters, sunflowers and chrysanthemums for a truly abundant and radiant effect.</p>

So, it's no wonder why they've become some of the most sought-after houseplants. They're also really easy to care for. That being said, you do need to have some information in order to make sure you do everything right to keep your succulents alive and happening. Check out this quick guide to simple succulent care from the experts at <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">French Florist</a> in Los Angeles.</p>
<h2><strong>What Makes Succulents So Special?</strong></h2>
<p>Unlike other green plants, succulents don't have thin, papery leaves. Instead, they grow thick, rubbery spines, leaves, or segments. With these rubbery leaves, they're perfectly adapted to L.A.'s sunny, dry weather because these strange appendages allow them to store water extremely efficiently. In fact, succulents keep water in their roots and stems, too, which is why they're called succulents in the first place ' succulent is another word for moist.</p>

<h2><strong>Why Grow Succulents Inside?&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p>Succulents will help create a calm, serene atmosphere in your home or office. In addition to putting out positive vibes, they also keep the indoor air healthy for breathing. Succulent roots generate a gentle pumping action that draws air toward the soil. When harmful toxins like VOCs reach their roots, they convert the chemicals into nutrients, effectively eradicating indoor air pollution. In addition to purifying the air, they also replenish the indoor atmosphere with plenty of fresh oxygen.</p>
<h2><strong>Popular Succulent Varieties</strong></h2>
<p>Succulents come in an almost endless number of varieties, which makes it fun to play with them in both succulent gardens and floral arrangements. If you receive a succulent in a floral bouquet, simply plant the succulent in soil once the flowers are spent. The succulent will soon sprout roots and start to grow.</p>
<h3><strong>Sedum</strong></h3>
<p><a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2575" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sedum succulents</a> tend to finger outward or upward in clumps of leaf segments. They're perfect for filling out a succulent garden or arrangement. They grow in a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes.</p>

<h2><strong>How to Care for Indoor Succulents</strong></h2>
<p>Caring for plants doesn't get much easier than taking care of succulents. Pot a succulent in low-nutrient soil formulated specially for cacti or succulents and make sure the plant has a pot that will drain completely.&nbsp;Indoors, succulents need a warm location and lots of directly sunlight. Succulents rarely need pruning, but any dead leaves or debris should be removed promptly to prevent bacterial growth making the plant sick. Water succulents sparingly, only when the soil is completely dry and never let the plant sit in standing water.</p>

<p>If leaves begin turning yellow or brown, this means the plant is stressed. Most commonly, this occurs due to too much water, but can also indicate a very thirsty succulent. Check the soil to try to figure out what's going on, and then contact an expert at <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/los-angeles-sunflowers-and-succulents-bouquet/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Echeveria</a> for additional help.</p>

HOW TO GROW HEALTHY SUCCULENTS

Tulips

<div class="entry-content bla">
<p>A simple, bright and beautiful flower, the tulip is a familiar symbol of springtime. There are nearly 4,000 different varieties of tulips available and selecting the perfect display for your office, home or to give as a gift can be daunting.</p>
<h1>Ways to Say 'I Love You'</h1>
<p>Roses are delightful, but if you are looking for something a little different to express your deep love this year on a special occasion, consider the tulip. It's bold color and fresh appearance make it a unique choice. The deep and bright red color evokes a message of passion and love. A bunch of&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/944" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/944">red tulips in a block vase</a>&nbsp;with Christmas accents is a stunning gift on the holidays, but may be simplified &nbsp;to just flowers and a vase for a summery expression of freshly blooming romance.</p>
<p>But why not add on to make your love statement a shout from the rooftops? The&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses-tulips" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses-tulips">P.S. ' I Love You</a>&nbsp;completes the romance of tulips with the traditional symbol of adoration that roses imply. Mixed together, both flowers express the warmth of love and act as a fresh reminder of spring. Pink tulips impart happiness to pair with the red implication of love and the whole arrangement is quite literally tied together with a classy pink satin ribbon around the thick glass vase.</p>
<h1>Orange is In</h1>
<p>The hot color of the season is bright orange, and what could add more to your d'cor than a gorgeous bouquet of fresh spring flowers? The bright oranges of the Roses, tulips and Mokara orchids in the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/2904" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/2904">Orchids and Tulips</a>&nbsp;display is not only an unusual choice, but it effortlessly blends intrigue, spice and passion into one arrangement.

<h1>The Gardener</h1>
<p>You don't have to have a green thumb with flowers to care for tulips. Choosing a&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/221" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/221">Bulb Garden Planter</a>&nbsp;is the easy way to have a long-lasting flower arrangement that will bloom every year. Bulb flowers ' like daffodils, tulips, irises, narcissuses and hyacinths ' are a cinch to care for and a little sunshine and water go a long way. If you get tired of having them in the home or office, they are easily planted in the outdoor beds, where their bulbs will rest underground until next springtime comes around.</p>

3 FUN WAYS TO PRESENT YOUR TULIPS

Sympathy

<div class="entry-content bla">
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/los-angeles-sympathy-flowers/"><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-644" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/Sympathy-blog3.jpg" alt="sympathy flowers" width="735" height="365" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/Sympathy-blog3.jpg 735w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/Sympathy-blog3-300x149.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/Sympathy-blog3-500x248.jpg 500w" sizes="(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px"></a>When flowers are delivered to the funeral home, they add beauty and fragrance to an otherwise sad event. All over the globe, funeral flowers play an important role in memorial service traditions; most originate in ancient ceremonies involving the anointing of the deceased; as well as placing aromatic flowers at the burial site. Today, flowers are still considered one of the most meaningful ways to express our condolences when words are often not enough.</p>
<div></div>
<div>There are generally two types of flowers purchased by friends, colleagues and extended families. Flowers for the funeral service are sent to the funeral home. The displays are formal in design and are often arranged in large standing sprays or wreaths. These florals are most appropriate at the funeral home or at graveside services and are never delivered to a home or office, out of respect for the grieving family.<br>
<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=3114"><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-642" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_FW7011-141202105858-853x1024.jpg" alt="sympathy flowers" width="584" height="701" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_FW7011-141202105858-853x1024.jpg 853w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_FW7011-141202105858-250x300.jpg 250w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_FW7011-141202105858-768x922.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_FW7011-141202105858.jpg 950w" sizes="(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px"></a> By comparison, sympathy flowers are meant for delivery to the family home of those who have suffered the recent loss. They are characteristically smaller, and should be able to be displayed on tables and counter tops. Many people also choose green or flowering plants to express sympathy, as they provide a long lasting reminder of your thoughtfulness and can function as a keepsake.&nbsp;Often the news of a friend's passing doesn't reach you in time for the memorial service. Sending flowers as an expression of sympathy is always appropriate, no matter what the timing. The family will always appreciate the gesture. When sending flowers directly to a residence, you may also consider a gourmet gift or fruit basket.<br>

If you wish to provide these important pieces for the family, it is imperative that you inquire with the family before ordering, to not cause confusion or offense.</div>

<li><strong>Use a Conversational Tone.</strong> There's no need to put too much effort into writing in a formal manner, just write casually as you would normally speak. This comes across as being more sincere and natural.</li>
<li><strong>Try to Avoid Cliches.</strong> Cliches have a time and a place but may come across as insincere in a personal message. Instead of phrases such as 'Everything happens for a reason,' 'If it's meant to be it's meant to be,' 'At the end of the day, ' and 'Giving it 110%,' use your own original words which will make your message a lot more genuine and meaningful.</li>
<li><strong>Brevity Is Best.</strong> You may have a lot to say and a lot on your mind, but to prevent your message from rambling, try to keep it brief. Get all of your thoughts down on paper, and then edit the message to just a few lines. This ensures your meaning comes across more clearly and thoughtfully stated.</li>
<li><strong>Re-read Your Message.</strong> Besides checking for proper grammar and spelling, read your message a few times to make sure it truly captures the sentiment you're trying to express. If it doesn't, give it a few more rounds of edits to make your thoughts more impactful.</li>

<h3 class="underline non-caps">Tips for Writing an Anniversary Message</h3>
<p>A significant milestone in a relationship, reinforce your bond of love with a message that is personal and meaningful. Straight from the heart is the best way to go here.</p>
<h3 class="underline non-caps">Tips for Writing a Birthday Message</h3>
<p>Birthdays are a chance to have a little fun. They can be sincere, funny, or uplifting. The best messages include something personal between you and the recipient which can be added after a funny or sincere note.</p>
<h3 class="underline non-caps">Tips for Writing a Get Well Message</h3>
<p>Sending a warm message along with some bright, fresh flowers is a great way to help someone in the hospital recover quickly. Whether for a friend, family member, or coworker, select a general saying and then add some personal details to make it your own.</p>
<h3 class="underline non-caps">Tips for Writing a Thank You Message</h3>
<p>Sending 'thanks' to someone for doing something in particular, or just because they make you smile every day, is a great way to show your appreciation for them. From a general thanks for someone you don't know very well (Great Aunt, teacher, dog sitter) to a close friend or family member, expressing your thanks is always well-received and appreciated.</p>

<h3 class="underline non-caps">Tips for Writing a Sympathy Message</h3>
<p>Coming up with the words for a sincere and thoughtful sympathy message is probably the most difficult of all. Trying to comfort someone who is in pain and suffered a loss may leave you confused on where to begin. It's helpful to write words of support and encouragement and, above all else, to be sincere and thoughtful. Often a well-crafted quote works well to capture the sentiment you're feeling.</p>

<h2 class="underline">Important Points to Keep in Mind Before Sending Someone Flowers</h2>
<p>Sending flowers for special occasions, big or small, is a well-established custom that makes the occasions all that more special. With the right message, flowers have the power to lift spirits, create joy, expand love, soothe the soul, inspire happiness, and help comfort.</p>
<p>There are a few things to keep in mind, though, before sending someone flowers.</p>
<ol>
<li><img loading="lazy" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1898" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/03/card-desktop-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/03/card-desktop-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/03/card-desktop-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/03/card-desktop.jpg 750w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px">When sending someone flowers, make sure they <strong>don't have allergies</strong>. If you are unsure whether they are allergic or not, stick with hypoallergenic flowers such as carnations, orchids, tulips, hyacinth, daffodils, and peonies.</li>
<li>If sending flowers to someone in the hospital, <strong>call the hospital first</strong> to make sure they receive flower deliveries. Here are more tips on sending flowers to a medical facility.</li>
<li>If you want to send flowers to show your appreciation of frontline and healthcare workers, <strong>send a thoughtful card instead</strong> to the facility, since flowers may not even be allowed. If you want to send flowers to a nurse or doctor you personally know, send them to their home address.</li>
<li>When sending sympathy flowers, <strong>check with the family</strong> to see if they prefer the flowers to be sent to a funeral home rather than their home address.</li>
<li>When sending romantic flowers, red roses are the classic choice, but to really impress and express your love, send the recipient <strong>their favorite flowers</strong> to make a bold romantic gesture. Also, send the bouquet to their private residence instead of a public location like work which can cause gossip or embarrassment.</li>
<li>When sending birthday flowers or celebratory flowers for special occasions such as Easter, Professional Admin Day, or Thanksgiving, <strong>keep in mind the recipient</strong>. If they are a good friend but not someone you're romantically involved with, then don't send red roses. Again, it's best to send to their private residence. Keep your flower choices and messages thematically appropriate. Send cheery and colorful flowers for a birthday, get well, or congratulatory occasion. For a new baby, send soft and cute arrangements in pink (for a girl) or blue (for a boy). If you don't know the gender or don't want to offend, play it safe by choosing neutral colors such as orange, yellow, or green.</li>
</ol>
<p>Use the flower-giving and message-writing guide above, and before you know it, you'll be considered one of the most thoughtful, eloquent, and tasteful gift giver around.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/1191"><img loading="lazy" class="alignleft" alt="Summer Bubble Bowl" src="https://www.frenchflorist.com/images/item/zoom_bubblebowl2168104.jpg" width="210" height="210"></a>There are lots of things to love about summertime, but one of the best things by far is the parties. Lots of free time and beautiful weather add up to a perfect party season. But throwing a party can be stressful  and in the middle of the planning, the cleaning, and the cooking, it's easy to forget the decorations. Why not make things easy with a beautiful flower arrangement?</p>
<p>Flower arrangements like the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/1191">Summer Bubble Bowl&nbsp;</a>add a little color and flair to any party! The bright and beautiful summer blossoms celebrate the brilliant colors of summer without breaking the bank. Plus, theyre available for Los Angeles flower delivery, which means you can spend more time with your guests and less time worrying about the details. Complement them with a brightly colored Madras-style tablecloth, crepe streamers, and paper lanterns for a summer party that's truly memorable. Or, if youre a little more ambitious, create a centerpiece around them. The brilliant color palette serves as the perfect backdrop to a platter of luscious summer fruit. And since its versatility makes it a welcome addition to any party, why not bring it with you to the neighbors? More flowers always means more fun!</p>
<p>What to do if your busy summer schedule means youre missing out on some of the fun? Not to worry! Send the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/1191">Summer Bubble Bowl</a>&nbsp;to your hostess via our Los Angeles flower delivery to let her know youre thinking of her!
