Flowers & Gifts for July Special Days

While you may have your own special days this month, including birthdays or anniversaries, to celebrate, there may be a few more that you didn’t realize come this month. Here are three special days related to family that you may want to consider for a flower arrangement, plant, or gift. Cousin’s Day Celebrate all your cousins on this day. It is celebrated on July 24th and is a way to recognize that special family bond that you have that feels like sisters and brothers but probably without the fights! As special members of the family they are often close in age to you so there is more in common with each other to enjoy holidays or vacations together. Aunt & Uncle Day Celebrate your parents’ siblings on July 26th. They are very often an extra set of parents for you or a mentor to go to when you couldn’t talk to your parents. They are often older around your parents’ age and can provide great advice with their knowledge and experience. Father-in-Law Day Celebrate your bonus dad on July 30th with a special gift of thanks for all that they did to raise your spouse to be a great partner.

Send a Gift that Leaves a Lasting Impression

There is a reason flowers are such a popular gift – not only are they beautiful but they have a way of making a lasting impression because they represent nature and are so truly unique, especially in terms of showing someone’s love for a special occasion like a birthday, special event, anniversary, new baby or a just because. One of the favorite things we like to do is create flower arrangements that stand out among all the rest so that recipients know that this was not some group of flowers picked up at the supermarket cooler. Instead, it was made by a team of professional floral designers that added their own flair for design, color combinations, and flower varieties not to mention special containers. We are proud to show off our latest collection of Metropolitan Designs that include many contemporary and stunning flower arrangements that will be a real standout as a gift for others or yourself. Many of these also are great choices for centerpieces for events or even an upcoming wedding. Here are a just few of the Metropolitan Designs that we feel have made a lasting impression on many of our customers and their recipients: La Jolla Elegance features white callas, white hydrangea and green cymbidium orchids in a graceful tall glass vase. Prestige is an extraordinary arrangement that features premium roses, tulips, hydrangea, and Oncidium orchids that truly stun.  Our Deluxe Dendrobium orchid display comes in a crystal clear triangular vase that simply overflows with these beauties in shades of purple along with some dramatic accents. Pacific Breeze offers a floral breath of fresh air in this multi-color arrangement.

Plant a Flower Day is March 12th!

One of our favorite celebrations is just around the corner. That’s Plant a Flower Day on March 12th. Being in the flower business, we believe in the importance and value of sustaining our natural resources by continuing to plant so we can always enjoy these beautiful aspects of nature. The day is meant to remind people of the need to keep planting and taking care of flowers by planting flowers in your own garden or by helping out in a community garden. Participating in this day is a great way to help the Earth and give back while also enjoying a fulfilling hobby outdoors in the beautiful San Diego sunshine. We want to make sure that flowers will always be here for us, so that is why we work with flower farmers that are very conscious of what they do in terms of replanting and continually tending to the various flower varieties to make sure they will always be there for future generations to enjoy. If you cannot participate in Plant a Flower Day, you can pick a different day to plant flowers in your garden or even start a garden if you do not yet have one. It’s a great activity for you and your kids to enjoy as well as teaches future generations about the importance of taking care of the Earth. Other great ways to celebrate Plant a Flower Day is to send a flower-themed gift to a loved one. This could be a gardening gift basket with flower seeds included. Or, you could opt for a beautiful display of flowers that illustrates just why we all need to keep planting flowers and taking care of them. At Allen’s Flowers and Plants, we are pleased to provide an [...]

Summer is already gone and autumn has arrived – on September 22nd to be precise. And, we were already for the changing of the seasons by stocking up on fall flowers, fall flower arrangements, and fall plants. We’d like to share some of our newest fall flower arrangements. More are currently in the works thanks to our exceptional floral design team located at each of our San Diego flower shop locations. The Latest and Greatest Fall Flower Arrangements We love showing off our floral designs, so here are a few of our newest fall flower designs and autumn flower arrangements: Autumn Nights: This is a bold, yet crisp, floral arrangement that reflects the changing temperatures and colors of the season. It features orange and red roses along with Asiatic lilies and oak leaves in a sleek glass vase. Fall for San Diego: This fall flower arrangement provides a great overview of the abundance that fall brings in the form of flowers, including roses, sunflowers, lilies, daisy poms and dried oak leaves, which are hand arranged and placed in a glass vase that is tied with raffia. Fall Luxury: To be luxurious does not always require a grand size as this sophisticated and stunning fall flower arrangement proves. Arranged in a glass cube vase along with a fall-themed ribbon, this collection of autumn flowers features rust and lavender roses, burgundy mini carnations, peach Asiatic lilies, orange celosia and lush greenery. A unique option that we have added this season is the Name Your Price Fall Bouquet.
