4th Of July Flowers In Springfield, Ohio

From time to time, I will have a customer point out to me that flowers do not, in fact, last forever. I usually have to pick my jaw up off the floor after such a startling revelation. With the 4th of July coming up, it occurred to me that there is something even more short lived than flowers and that's fireworks. You can't watch a fireworks display then tell me Americans don't enjoy watching their money literally go up in flames.

With that in mind, let's look at some nice flowers.

Patriot In Springfield, Ohio

Say hello to Patriot. A ruby red vase with red Freedom roses, fragrant white stock, blue hydrangea, and premium foliage accented with Old Glory. This thing is so American, if put it in the XL cup holder of your pickup truck you would appear MORE masculine.

Look, we made it through that whole thing without any of the arrangements exploding. If you decide to explode your arrangement, please make a video and share it with us so we can post it on Facebook.

4th of July flowers? You better believe it! Take your Independence Day party to the next level with fresh flowers this year. Your guests will ooh and ah over the arrangements I'm showing you today.

Fireworks is my flagship design for this holiday. The name says it all. Birds of Paradise and Pin Cushion Protea, accented with Hypericum berries and Bear Grass arranged in a large globe vase. This would make a perfect finishing touch for your picnic and buffet tables.

While you're at it, scatter a few of these firecrackers around for an extra pop. Beat the Heat is a nice size to go on your home bar or in your powder room. 

Maybe you're looking at these and thinking "I love these arrangements, you're a creative genius, but what about something more traditional?"

Honor and Glory Centerpiece in Springfield Ohio

'Murica. The Honor and Glory Centerpiece will bring tears of patriotism to your eyes. Red, white and blue flowers with Old Glory standing proud. Bald Eagles will swoop down to admire your 4th of July spread.

Red White and True in Springfield Ohio

Red, White, and True is the perfect arrangement to accent your Honor and Glory Centerpiece. Red Roses, Blue Delphinium, Baby's Breath, and other flowers arranged in a cobalt blue vase make a classic look for the season. Order several for your event and put them everywhere. 

I hope I gave you some good ideas for your 4th of July party. Next week I'll be at the AIFD Symposium in Anaheim, California. The symposium is one of the largest floral design events in the world. I'll be sure to take photos of  all of the amazing floral installations and bonus photos of Disneyland! Thanks for reading today.
