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>
<p>January is the perfect month to give to carnations as a birthday present. Those interested in finding the right arrangement should contact us at <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a> to learn more about our stunning flowers.</p>

As World War II raged, skilled administrative personnel were desperately needed to keep organizations running smoothly at home. To appropriately recognize the dedication of those in that career, as well as to encourage others to follow suit the National Secretaries Association was established. The Association guaranteed that support personnel, who worked so diligently and contributed so much to their local economies, got the gratitude that they earned.<br /><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/" rel="attachment wp-att-581"><img class="wp-image-581 alignright" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/04/zoom_AMS121813030645902-1-842x1024.jpg" alt="Flowers" width="356" height="431" loading="lazy" /></a></p>
<p>As the decades have passed, the organization and the holiday has revised its name twice to represent better society in flux, and a more diverse and challenging work environment. The International Association of Administrative Professionals, as it is now known, has the vision to expand and increase the influence of their members. Far from being a passive group, they concentrate on international membership growth, continuing education opportunities and maintaining a standard of excellence for the industry. The mission of the IAAP is 'to inspire and equip all administrative professionals to attain excellence. At French Florist, we encourage you to show the administrative professionals on your team that their contributions are valued, and that your company would simply not be the same without them. We offer many options that will fit in perfectly in any business or office setting low key, professional or sophisticated green plants, <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/orchids/">orchids</a> and dish gardens are all options that will make a statement that will last for months after the day.</p>
<p>Depending on the environment of your office and the personality of your administrative personnel, you may wish to surprise the team with an amazing gourmet basket to share and celebrate together. Whether you choose fruit, cheese and crackers or chocolate our deluxe collections of delicious snacks are an excellent way to build camaraderie and appreciation in your business. The experts at <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a> are eager to make suggestions for unique office-appropriate gifts.

FLOWERS FOR SUMMER BIRTHDAYS!

<div class="entry-content bla">
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/occassions/birthday-flowers/los-angeles-florist/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-653" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/august-birthdays-blog2.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/august-birthdays-blog2.jpg 735w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/august-birthdays-blog2-300x149.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/august-birthdays-blog2-500x248.jpg 500w" alt="Happy birthday celebrate with flowers" width="735" height="365" loading="lazy" /></a>There are many ways to be inspired. This month, the designers at French Florists were inspired to create August birthstone flowers based the peridot. Although not as well known as some of the other precious gems, the exquisite hue of this stone makes it one of our <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/favorites/">favorites</a> and we are not alone. For thousands of years, the peridot has been coveted and sought after, earning references in the Old Testament of the bible, as well as in ancient Egyptian culture. In fact, many scholars now believe that Queen Cleopatra, renowned for her love of emeralds, actually may have been collecting peridot and not emeralds.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/mothers-day/roses-hydrangea-orchids-/"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-660" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_MD1361303254080813041521256-853x1024.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_MD1361303254080813041521256-853x1024.jpg 853w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_MD1361303254080813041521256-250x300.jpg 250w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_MD1361303254080813041521256-768x922.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/07/zoom_MD1361303254080813041521256.jpg 949w" alt="Green flowers" width="584" height="701" loading="lazy" /></a>Both stones are green, but unlike the emerald green color of the more famous jewel, the peridot's color ranges from pale lime green to a darker, almost olive color. All shades of peridot, however, have a golden cast that tints the stone, giving it a rich aesthetic. When choosing florals to represent the birthstone, designers turn to <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/mothers-day/roses-hydrangea-orchids-/">cymbidium orchids</a>, green hydrangea and green mums, <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/flower-cluster-arrangement-los-angeles-ca/">poms</a> and roses. Adding cream or yellow florals adds the golden cast to the bouquet, simulating the effect of the peridot.</p>

BIRTHDAY DAISIES & APRIL BOUQUETS

<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>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>Each year we look forward to gathering with our dear friends and family for traditional cookouts and backyard grilling. Why not spice things up this summer to enjoy an extraordinary day of spending time with loved ones, eating the best food, and soaking up the sunshine in style. Elevate your outdoor space with suggestions and ideas from the experts here at <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/favorite-choices/">French Florist, the premier floral shop in Los Angeles</a>. Serve more than brisket and burgers at your annual bash when you include bright blooms on every table, garnish signature drinks with petals, and even send your guests home with unique floral arrangements they can admire for days to come.</p>
<h2>Four Simple Tips for Including Flowers In Your Cookout</h2>

<div class="blog__img"><img src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/colorful.jpg" alt="Add colorful flower accents" /></div>
<div class="blog__list">
<h3>Add Colorful Flower Accents</h3>
<p>Add contrast to the <a href="https://www.elledecor.com/design-decorate/interior-designers/how-to/a8728/backyard-bbq-flowers/">natural color palette</a> of Mother Nature and your favorite BBQ foods by displaying bright and bold pops of color at this year's cookout. Blue, purple, pink, red, orange, and yellow petals will bring a refreshing and lively element to your style, especially if they are surrounded by vibrant greenery. Large floral arrangements are not only great for guest tables, but matching smaller accents are perfect for your food tables and dessert displays.</p>

<div class="blog__list">
<h3>Select Hardy Blooms</h3>
<p>The best types of flowers and greens to include in floral arrangements for a summer cookout are hardy and able to withstand the hot summer months. As breathtaking as they are, unfortunately, <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> are not on our list of 'summer-loving blooms. We prefer suggesting things such as anthurium, delphinium, carnations, sunflowers, pincushions, wax flowers, daisies, succulents, and eucalyptus. Not only will their petals thrive all day and night, but you can continue to admire their beauty as home decor after your guests depart.</p>

<h3>Garnish Drinks with Florals</h3>
<p>This year, your favorite summertime blooms are here to help you and your guests sip in style. Among the many ways to creatively incorporate flowers into your backyard cookout, this might be the sweetest and most delicious. Garnishing your drinks with floral doesn't mean you need to be stirring up cocktails or fancy drinks like <a href="https://ohsodelicioso.com/sparkling-lavender-lemonade/">lavender lemon spritz</a> all night long, although signature drinks are often crowd-pleasers. Simply garnish a soda in a glass, fruit-infused waters, or your famous iced tea or lemonade. Before serving, ensure the flowers and plants you have selected are safe to consume by confirming with your local florist.</p>

<h3>Fill Mason Jars for Decor &amp; Gifts</h3>
<p>If you are in need of a <a href="https://www.curbly.com/16240-10-creative-diy-flower-arrangements-for-your-next-barbecue-or-party">fun idea</a> to spice up your decor and style for this year's BBQ, search for mason jars to utilize as vases for mini summer flower arrangements. Pairing charm, nostalgia, and rustic chic with bold and bright blooms gives you the ability to create the perfect pieces for food stations and guest tables. Add your personal flair and spin on this DIY project by dressing up the jars with ribbon and decorating them to match your party theme. As the evening winds down, surprise guests by giving each one a mason jar with floral to take and admire at home.</p>
