Celebrating the Jewish New Year

Rosh Hashanah, also known as the Jewish New Year, is October 2-4th. This is a special time where we reflect on the year and make goals for the new year to do better on those things we need to improve on and reprioritize for what’s really important. It’s a spiritual time and opportune point to get together with loved ones to share in this reflection and goal setting. We have numerous flowers that are a wonderful way to decorate the home for these Jewish New Year gatherings. Check out these ideas: La Jolla Elegance comes in two sizes and offers a tall glass vase full of white hydrangea and calla lilies as well as green cymbidium orchids. Luxury Roses White offers stunning and lush 24-inch premium long-stemmed white roses in a 10-inch clear glass cylinder. It comes with 48 stems as well as greenery. The Phaleonopsis Orchid in Glass Block is an elegant display with its white blooms and yellow center. The blooms can last up to two months, carrying that feeling of the Jewish New Year through the year. Calla ME Crazy offers 20 full-size calla lilies along with foliage in a glass rectangular vase. Crystal White Lilies has 15 Oriental lilies in a glass vase and offers a perfect centerpiece or side table display. White Lilies and Orchids brings together three of the most beautiful flowers – lilies, roses, and orchids. It’s a beautiful way to set the table for the Jewish New Year. You can order from our San Diego flower shops by calling or visiting as well as going online to our website and ordering for local or national delivery. Let us help you prepare for the Jewish New Year!

National Grandparents’ Day is September 11th

This Sunday is National Grandparents’ Day so it’s time to honor those special family members who have always spoiled us and provided good advice to follow based on all their years of living and experience. They love us unconditionally and we do them. However, this is the day to show them with a special gift or, if possible, day together if they are local. Sometimes, there is great geographic distance or just simple a challenge to get them out and about, so one way to make up for this is to send a special gift like a bouquet, a dish garden, or other token that shows them just how much you love them. We have some great gift ideas to share with your for National Grandparents’ Day, including these beautiful new fall flowers: Fall Elegance offers shades of orange, yellow, and bronze in such floral varieties as roses, hydrangea, lilies, gerbera daisies, and more displayed in a clear glass cylinder vase that has been wrapped with a ti leaf. Suns and Roses has sunflowers, roses, and macara orchids for a stunning flower arrangement that is sure to please. Pacific Beach Perfection offers cayenne roses along with hydrangea, orchids, and other flowers and greenery. Sunburst Roses includes premium roses in various bright hues. Pink Panther is a unique flower arrangement with pink calla lilies, dahlias, and roses in a stone container. Simply Elegant is just that with lavender phalaenopsis orchids and purple dahlias along with roses and hydrangea in a glass container. California Sunshine includes yellow roses and green hydrangea arranged with a locally grown succulent and other accent flowers. You can order at any one of our San Diego flower shops or call us. We also take online orders for both [...]
