<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/christmas-holiday/centerpieces-flowers-gifts-los-angeles/"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-517 size-full" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2015/12/poinsettia-rustic-feature.gif" alt="Holiday collectible gifts" width="767" height="365" loading="lazy" /></a>The holiday shopping season is underway. We're sure that you have people on your holiday gift shopping list for whom shopping is sheer drudgery. Those difficult recipients can turn the entire holiday shopping experience into a nightmarish ordeal. You're in luck because <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a> has a vast selection of holiday collectibles and plant gifts that make the perfect gift for any situation where you're not sure what to give someone.
&nbsp;
<h2><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/holiday-collectible-delivery-los-angeles/">Holiday Collectible Gifts</a></h2>
&nbsp;
China collectors have coveted keepsakes from Spode and Fitz and Floyd for years. We've taken that to heart and created some gorgeous floral arrangements around the keepsake collectibles that are made by these two famous China companies.
&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2522">'A Fitz and Floyd's Snowy Sleigh Ride'</a> is a limited edition French Florist exclusive. We create a winter wonderland that no Californian can resist with a combination of <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/orchids/">orchids</a> and pure white lilies. We add some ornament balls and pine cones for drama, and we use Christmas greenery and red berries for texture. The keepsake sleigh will be a source of memories for many subsequent years.
&nbsp;
It may be 2015, but the <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2923">'2012 Spode Holiday Express'</a> is as relevant today as it was three years ago. We fill the train with red carnations, green pincushion mums, holly leaf and berry branches, Christmas greenery and gold-dusted pine cones. We top it off with a gold mesh ribbon.
&nbsp;
<h2><a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/holiday-plants-poinsettia-delivery-los-angeles/">Holiday Plants &amp; Poinsettias</a></h2>
<h2>&nbsp;</h2>
We love plants, and we think others do as well. Our <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2937">Poinsettia Garden Basket</a> is a delightful spin on a traditional poinsettia plant. A rustic white wicker basket with a handle is the planter for a lush red poinsettia plant. We add other green and flowering plants to the basket, accent it with some snow-tipped pine cones, and pull it all together with a gold-bordered red velvet ribbon.
&nbsp;
If you're looking for a super special, unusual and exotic gift for someone, look no further than our <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2945">'Festive Blooming Orchid Plants.'</a> We use a white wicker basket as a planter for two orchid plants. Our orchids come in many sizes and colors. We add a Christmasy red velvet bow to give this planter a festive holiday touch.
&nbsp;
We think that holiday gift shopping should be a fun experience. Make the holidays a memorable experience for yourself and the people for whom you buy gifts. Our <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/christmas-holiday/centerpieces-flowers-gifts-los-angeles/">Holiday Gift Guide</a> offers you a multitude of one-stop shopping solutions that will make your experience a fun and happy one.

They have played a supporting role in our traditions, our cultures and our artwork. There are descriptions of floral elements in ancient Egyptian burial ceremonies; Greek mythology includes flowers in legends of the gods and goddesses. In the Victorian era, flowers represented a secret forbidden language between paramours; and artists as diverse as Monet, Van Gogh and O'Keefe have immortalized flowers in masterpieces.
&nbsp;
No one will deny that a wild bouquets of fresh picked flowers has inherent beauty. But the art of floral design takes the aesthetic beauty of flowers to a whole new level, utilizing artistic elements of composition, texture, line, balance and color to create an unforgettable arrangement. National Floral Design Day, celebrated on February 28, was established to remember Carl Rittners, a floral expert known as the father of floral design education. Rittners' School of Floral Design in Boston is famous for training florists to elevate flower designs from common to exquisite.

In Los Angeles, we're lucky enough to live in a climate where we can enjoy flowers that bloom throughout the year, but there's something unmistakably unique about the flowers that bloom during spring. At <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-label="Opens in new tab">French Florist</a>, we love to celebrate the season of rebirth and new beginnings with batches of the most beautiful&nbsp;seasonal flowers, and we can't wait to share all our new designs with you.
<h2>Fun Facts about Springtime and Flowers</h2>
This year, the vernal equinox and first official day of spring is March 19th, but plants don't know that. Flowers know when it's time to bloom because they can sense the lengthening days and warmer temperatures.
In the United States, we mark the beginning of spring with the equinox, but people in other places measure the seasons with other means, like the lunar calendar. In Japan, people take their cue from their national flower and don't recognize the official beginning of spring until the cherry blossoms bloom.

Blushing Blooms
</div>
<h2>When the First and Last Flowers of Spring Bloom</h2>
The earliest spring flowers can actually start blooming well before spring begins, even in cold climates. Crocuses, snowdrops, and Lenten <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> all push their way through the frost to bloom as early as late January!
The rest of the 'early' spring bloomers like daffodils, hyacinths, pansies, and tulips emerge toward the end of March and beginning of April. Late spring bloomers need more sunshine and warmth before they'll flower. These include roses, lilacs, bluebells, <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/daisies/">daisies</a>, and peonies.
<h2>Our 7 Favorite Spring Flowers for Celebrating the Season of New Beginnings</h2>
So many lovely flowers bloom during spring that it's tough to select just a few as <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/favorites/">favorites</a>. We picked the following blossoms because of their unique beauty, alluring fragrances, and significant symbolic meanings make them easy for everyone&nbsp;to love.
<div id="attachment_1619" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1619" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Daffodils-2048x2048.jpg 2048w" alt="Daffodils" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1619" />
Daffodils
</div>
<h3>1. Daffodils</h3>
With their trumpet-shaped blooms in bright yellow, orange, and white, daffodils are incredibly cheerful to look at. They are perhaps the flower that's the most emblematic of spring because, like the season itself, daffodils also symbolize renewal, rebirth, and new beginnings.
<div id="attachment_1622" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1622" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth-768x769.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Hyacinth.jpg 1313w" alt="Hyacinth" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1622" />
Hyacinth
</div>
<h3>2. Hyacinth</h3>
Hyacinths emerge early in spring with cones of flowers in blue, white, pink, and purple. Although they're lovely to admire, they're mostly adored for their pretty floral fragrance. You only need a couple of hyacinths to completely perfume a room.
<div id="attachment_1618" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1618" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-1198x1200.jpg 1198w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-768x770.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-1533x1536.jpg 1533w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-2044x2048.jpg 2044w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Camellia-299x300.jpg 299w" alt="Camellia" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1618" />
Camellia
</div>
<h3>3. Camellias</h3>
Camellia shrubs blossom with gloriously gorgeous flowers each spring. These beauties come in red, white, and pink and respectively symbolize deep desire, adoration, and longing.
<div id="attachment_1617" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1617" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Bluebells-2048x2048.jpg 2048w" alt="Bluebells" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1617" />
Bluebells
</div>
<h3>4. Bluebells</h3>
These late-spring bloomers are worth the wait. They grow wildly in different regions around the United States and are also a favorite cultivated by flower suppliers everywhere. Several bell-shaped blooms hang gracefully from a single stem. The weight of the flowers causes the entire plant to bow gently toward the ground, which may be why bluebells have come to symbolize humility.
<div id="attachment_1629" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1629" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Roses.jpg 1387w" alt="Roses" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1629" />
Roses
</div>
<h3>5. Roses</h3>
Roses are a favorite all year, but they're actually in-season during spring. In the springtime, you can get the freshest, most beautiful flowers you'll ever see. Plus, they're way less expensive to buy in large quantities. This makes them a perfect choice for a spring wedding. Roses also have a rich history as a means of communicating in the Victorian Era. Each color has a different meaning. For example, pink represents gentle admiration, yellow is for <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/friendship/">friendship</a>, and lavender represents love at first sight.
<div id="attachment_1625" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1625" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Pansies.jpg 1632w" alt="Pansies" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1625" />
Pansies
</div>
<h3>6. Pansies</h3>
Pansies bloom early in spring and have flowers that resemble happy, little faces. They come in a wide variety of colors and color combinations, making them fun to grow in large flower beds. They also look quite pretty as a single flower in a miniature pot. Pansies symbolize admiration and free thought.
<div id="attachment_1631" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px;"><img class="wp-image-1631" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-150x150.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-150x150.jpg 150w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-300x300.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-768x768.jpg 768w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2020/02/Tulips-2048x2048.jpg 2048w" alt="Tulips" width="200" height="200" loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1631" />
Tulips
</div>
<h3>7. Tulips</h3>
It's impossible to list our favorite spring flowers without mentioning <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/tulips/">tulips</a>. These beauties are just about as strongly associated with the season as daffodils. They bloom in endless varieties and work perfectly in a garden, container, or floral arrangement. Each color of the tulip has a different meaning. Yellow, representing happy thoughts, is our favorite.
<h2>Welcome Springtime with Indoor Flowers to Celebrate the Beauty Outside</h2>
The best way to celebrate the season of renewal, rebirth, and new beginnings is to decorate your home with a bouquet of fresh spring flowers from <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-label="Opens in new tab">French Florist</a>.

<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a> is always looking to add to our bag of floral design tricks, which is why <a href="http://www.ifd-inc.org/">International Floral Distributors</a> trend report for 2018 is something we're excited to cover. It's both design inspo and a peek into what everyone will be talking about when it comes to flowers next year.
Of the four trends identified, we're loving 'Incarnation of Earth's Elements,' which may be a cumbersome mouthful, but we assure you, the look itself is anything but.

We're calling it 'modern nature' instead, and believe that captures its essential spirit. Think organic minimalism, a way of showcasing nature in our homes in an unfussy and yet artful way. Pieces that look like living sculptures, columns of flowers like a color wheel . . . this is what the style is about. You can see it reflected in our <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/birthday-flowers/los-angeles-florist/elegant-explosion-colorful/">An Elegant Explosion of Colorful Blooms</a>.<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/birthday-flowers/los-angeles-florist/elegant-explosion-colorful/"><img src="https://frenchflorist.imgix.net/images/item/FWED1-alt2-17022440458.jpg?w=950&amp;auto=format" alt="An elegant explosion of colorful blooms" /></a>
River rock makes up an earthy base for a scape of bright flowers (another huge trend for next year), which present themselves in a linear way. Another aspect of this look is that geometry is well represented, whether that's in an arrangement's shape, the vessel it resides in or in the additional decor presented alongside it. The effect feels intentional, and yet restrained. The focus is on the flowers and other organic elements, emphasizing their striking beauty. We'll be working this look all year long and beyond.

But they are also play a critical role in our ecosystem, and are far more than just a 'pretty face'. From inviting butterflies, to supporting the cause of the honeybees, to repelling&nbsp;pesky insects ' these incredible plants provide many other benefits. This summer, let French Florist assist you in&nbsp;creating butterfly and bee gardens that&nbsp;will enhance your environment in many ways.
But Won't They Sting Me?&nbsp;According to experts, the honeybee population has dramatically decreased in the last 20 years. Because they are so important in maintaining a sufficient and healthy food supply, anything that we can each do to help them to thrive is a great idea. And don't worry, honeybees pose little threat of stinging when they are collecting nectar; they are generally only aggressive when protecting the hive, or cornered.&nbsp;Bees and butterflies are attracted to many of the same plants, and you can create a single garden with plenty of flowers to attract them both! Although some people create gardens&nbsp;which are complex, you can also design a very simple oasis. You'll need bright, nectar filled flowers, such as sunflowers, asters and goldenrod. For even more success, plant clover, butterfly bushes, geraniums, milkweed, zinnias and hyacinth. Bee also love snapdragons, which can add a lot of interest and color to a garden.

Some of our favorite flowers can also be utilized as natural plant repellents, and placing them around a backyard deck may help you to have a bug-free evening. Chrysanthemums are a powerhouse when it comes to warding off pests, including&nbsp;roaches, ants, Japanese beetles, ticks, silverfish, lice, fleas, bedbugs, and spider mites! Marigolds will keep aphids and mosquitoes at bay, and the delicately beautiful allium flower will defend against pests that attack&nbsp;vegetable gardens. Sometimes called 'nature's pesticide', petunias also keep watch over vegetable gardens ' you can plant them, or keep them in hanging pots surrounding the area.
When imagining&nbsp;an outdoor space for summer entertaining, don't forget the flowers! Not only are they lovely, but they can make your own little world a better place. Trust the floral experts at <a href="http://frenchflorist.com">French Florist</a> to help you choose just the right varieties for bee and butterfly gardens everyone will love.

The holiday started in Eastern Europe and Russia as a point of political empowerment in women, but lost its political notion in some regions and became simply an occasion for men to show their love for women in a similar way to Mother's Day and Valentine's Day, without the notion of parenthood or relationships.
In other regions though the political notion still holds strong, designed by the United Nations to promote political and social awareness of the struggles and strength of women worldwide. Some people celebrate this holiday by wearing Purple Ribbons, or by giving <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/purple-flowers/">purple flowers</a>.
The first occurrence of this incredible holiday was as far back as May of 1908, in Chicago. The holiday is still moving forward as hard as the incredible women fighting for the cause are today. Let's celebrate the strength of the women of the world with flowers and celebratory gifts!
Show appreciation for the strong women around you, working hard to push forward equality and human rights in this vast world we live in give flowers to the women around you.

Valentine's Flowers and Gifts: The Ultimate Giving Guide

Mother's Day

<div class="entry-content bla">

The idea for <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/mothers-day/">Mother's Day</a> began as a way of uniting families that had been torn apart by the Civil War. Establishing Mother's Friendship Day, Ann Jarvis wanted to extend this event into an annual celebration that would include all mothers. Unfortunately, she died before her dream became a reality, thankfully, her daughter Anna would continue the process.
Finally, through the tireless efforts of Anna campaigning for a national and international day to honor mothers, her persistence was rewarded. Congress made a landmark decision in passing a law indicating the observance of Mother's Day, and on May 9, 1914, President Woodrow Wilson officially announced it.
I am glad that Anna Jarvis was able to accomplish her mother's goal, creating a day for showing the person who has given us&nbsp;life, a token of our&nbsp;affection and respect. I bet your mom will be delighted, when you express your love and appreciation for her with our assortment of beautiful flowers and gifts.
