Celebrate Fall With Flowers & Autumn Decorations

It’s that time of year to say goodbye to summer and hello to fall or autumn. Whatever you call it, the season officially arrived on September 22 this year. In San Diego, it's often hard to tell when the seasons change, but the weather here does stay mostly sunny with slightly lower morning temps. With it comes stunning new colors and reminders of a new harvest season. There are traditional colors like brown, orange, and yellow. But 2021 fall trends now also include pink, red, and purple. The changing seasons also means the arrival of our favorite fall holidays, including Halloween and Thanksgiving. It's a time to celebrate, dress up, have fun, and spend more time with family. We are so excited to see the return to many San Diego events, including trunk or treats, fall festivals, turkey runs, and more. Along with the return, there are also special celebrations to commemorate as well as events like fall weddings that could all use fall flowers to add that special look. Our fall flower collection has arrived in each of our San Diego flower shop locations along with the ability to order custom fall floral displays. Here are some highlights for this year's fall season: Our fall flower arrangements include floral favorites like lilies, sunflowers, and fall roses in shades of orange, yellow, lavender and pink in unique obtainers.
