In the years following the Civil War, mothers in mourning gathered to grieve their sons and husbands; Mothers Friendship Days were the forerunners to our modern Mothers Day; they were organized by the mother of Anna Jarvis, who established the national holiday in 1914.
Jarvis imagined Mothers Day to be a quiet family time at home when the family could spend time together and pray.
She later filed a motion to take Mothers Day off the calendar; she was distraught over what she considered the extreme consumerism which began to surround the day.
Nearly a century later, two-thirds of those who celebrate Mothers Day will purchase flowers for their mother, mother-in-law or grandmother, totaling about $2.3 billion in spending annually.
Pink carnations are the traditional flower of Mothers Day; although pink <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a>, which signify appreciation, are gaining in popularity.
Nearly every country which celebrates Mothers Day does so on the second Sunday in May. Thailand celebrates in August, and Ireland on the fourth Sunday of Lent. <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/florists/beverly-hills-purple-splendor/" rel="attachment wp-att-588"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-588" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2016/04/zoom_FW105808072855911.gif" alt="Flowers" width="450" height="500" loading="lazy" /></a>On May 8th, mothers throughout the Los Angeles area will receive cards, candy, gifts and flowers from those that love them. Send your mother a beautiful bouquet designed by the floral artists at <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a>, and let her know just how special she is.

Valentine's Day

<img src="https://french-florist-web.imgix.net/ffv2/other/Original/Vday__Blog_Banner__8_1739247074262_50099.png" alt="Flowers" width="1120" height="630" />
Valentine&rsquo;s Day is a time to celebrate love, and few gifts capture emotions as beautifully as <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/favorites/">flowers</a>. Beyond their stunning appearance, flowers carry deep symbolism that speaks to the heart. Every bloom has a unique meaning, making your floral selection more than just a gift&mdash;it&rsquo;s a message.
Understanding the significance behind different Valentine&rsquo;s Day flowers allows you to choose an arrangement that truly represents your feelings. Expressing passion, devotion, or admiration through flowers adds a deeper layer of meaning to your celebration, making every moment even more special.
<h2>The History of Flower Symbolism in Romance</h2>
<h4>The tradition of expressing love through flowers dates back centuries. Various cultures assigned meanings to different blooms, turning them into powerful symbols of affection and emotion. Historical records, such as those from Ancient Greece and Rome, show that flowers played a significant role in mythology and rituals, often representing love, beauty, and devotion.</h4>
<h4>During the Victorian era, the art of floriography&mdash;also known as the language of flowers&mdash;became a popular way for people to communicate feelings that words could not express. Secret messages were sent through bouquets, each flower carefully chosen for its hidden meaning. Books such as <a href="https://artsandculture.google.com/story/the-language-of-flowers-royal-horticultural-society/DQXBY7DfLX9RIg?hl=en">The Language of Flowers</a> by Charlotte de Latour helped popularize these symbolic interpretations, influencing floral gifting traditions that continue today.</h4>
<h4>Today, flower symbolism continues to play a role in romantic gestures, especially on Valentine&rsquo;s Day. Whether choosing classic roses or a unique floral arrangement, the meanings behind the blooms add depth and thoughtfulness to the gift.</h4>

<h2>What Different Flowers Say About Your Love</h2>
Choosing the right flowers is about more than aesthetics&mdash;it&rsquo;s about capturing emotions in a meaningful way. Here&rsquo;s what different flowers symbolize and how they can express love:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Red <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">Roses</a>: The timeless symbol of passion and deep love, perfect for expressing devotion.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">White <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/lilies/">Lilies</a>: Represent purity, commitment, and a strong bond between partners.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Pink Peonies: Signify romance, prosperity, and a joyful relationship.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Yellow <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/sunflowers/">Sunflowers</a>: A representation of warmth, loyalty, and enduring love.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/orchids/">Orchids</a>: Admiration, beauty, and elegance, ideal for making someone feel truly special.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/tulips/">Tulips</a>: A symbol of deep love and affection, making them a beautiful Valentine&rsquo;s Day gesture.</li>
</ul>

A hardy autumn and winter plant, chrysanthemums are truly the perfect fall flower. With 40 different species and countless variations, chrysanthemum plants bloom in a variety of colors from purple, burgundy, and red to yellow, orange, white, and almost all of the colors in between. This autumn, our professionals at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a>&nbsp;can help you choose the right chrysanthemums to perfect your seasonal home decor.
Start by decorating the outside of your home with beautiful&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=180">potted chrysanthemum</a>&nbsp;plants. Chrysanthemums bloom in full color throughout the season, and are hardy enough to withstand the cooler autumn weather. Whether you adorn your front porch with one plant or several, chrysanthemums will provide all of your visitors with a warm welcome.
Once your front porch is adequately festive, focus on the inside of your home incorporating chrysanthemum blooms in&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/cat-autumn/los-angeles-fall-flowers/">autumn bouquets</a>&nbsp;and centerpieces for the season. Floral arrangements can be displayed in basic,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2873">traditional vases</a>&nbsp;or in more whimsical seasonal containers like&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2447">hollowed out pumpkins</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=1744">cornucopias</a>. Chrysanthemums work well in a bouquet on their own or accompanied by other traditional autumn blooms like&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=701">sunflowers</a>,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=1737">orange roses</a>, or&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2905">gerbera daisies</a>.<img class="alignright wp-image-276 size-full" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2014/11/thumbnail1.jpg" alt="Bouquet of flowers" width="263" height="300" loading="lazy" />
For a festive fall feast or Thanksgiving dinner decorate your table with a seasonal centerpiece. Centerpieces can range from an elegantly arranged&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=1753">bouquet</a>&nbsp;of flowers to centerpieces incorporating&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2445">candlelight</a>&nbsp;or rustic&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=1733">baskets</a>. Centerpieces featuring fall chrysanthemums will bring cheer to your harvest table. Whether you select a bouquet or a candlelight spray for your table, make sure your centerpiece&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=398">bursts</a>&nbsp;with autumn cheer.
No matter the season or occasion, always be sure to order your flowers in advance to ensure you receive the highest quality blooms and the availability of the flowers of your choice. This autumn season, let the professionals at French Florist help you choose the best chrysanthemums for your fall decorations.

<h4>Love Doesn't Need a Calendar&mdash;Make Every Moment Count</h4>
Valentine&rsquo;s Day has arrived, and even if you haven't planned ahead, there's still time to create a beautiful and memorable celebration. Love isn't about grand gestures alone&mdash;sometimes, the simplest surprises have the biggest impact. Whether it&rsquo;s a heartfelt note, a surprise bouquet, or an intimate evening, you can still make the day special without the stress of last-minute panic.
In this guide, you&rsquo;ll find thoughtful, easy-to-execute ideas that ensure your Valentine&rsquo;s Day feels intentional, romantic, and unforgettable.
<h2>Quick and Thoughtful Last-Minute Surprises</h2>
Flowers from a Flower Shop or Your Garden
<h4>Nothing says "I love you" like fresh flowers arriving at just the right moment. A bouquet from your favorite florist or freshly picked flowers from your garden can instantly brighten the day. Delivering flowers in person&mdash;whether surprising them at their workplace or setting up a mini-surprise at home&mdash;adds a personal and heartfelt touch, making Valentine&rsquo;s Day even more special.</h4>
<h4>Even a single, beautifully arranged bloom can make a powerful statement. Pair it with a heartfelt note, and you&rsquo;ve turned a simple flower into an unforgettable memory.</h4>
Personalized Love Notes &amp; Unexpected Messages
Words have the power to touch the heart in ways no material gift can. A handwritten love note slipped into a coat pocket, lunch bag, or left on their pillow can make your partner&rsquo;s day extra special.
For an added surprise, leave little messages in unexpected places&mdash;on the bathroom mirror, inside a book they&rsquo;re reading, or even in their car. If you&rsquo;re short on time, sending a heartfelt text message or voice memo expressing your appreciation and love can still make a big impact.

<h3>Thoughtful Digital Gifts &amp; Last-Minute Getaway</h3>
<h4>A thoughtful, last-minute gift can be as simple as a well-chosen digital gift card. Select one for their favorite restaurant, spa, or online store, and personalize it with a heartfelt message about why you picked it for them.</h4>
<h4>If you have a little more flexibility, consider a spontaneous getaway. Book a weekend staycation at a cozy hotel or a charming Airbnb. Even a simple day trip to a scenic location or a surprise dinner reservation can turn into a romantic and meaningful escape.</h4>
Sweet Treats and Wine Pairing
Nothing completes a celebration like delicious treats. Swing by a local bakery for gourmet chocolates, decadent pastries, or handcrafted sweets. Pair them with a bottle of wine or champagne for an effortless yet indulgent Valentine&rsquo;s surprise.
If you're feeling extra thoughtful, create a DIY dessert platter with a mix of their favorite treats. Small details like this show effort and make even a last-minute celebration feel personal and special.
At-Home Date Night
A dreamy Valentine&rsquo;s Day doesn&rsquo;t have to mean extravagant dinner reservations or over-the-top gestures. Sometimes, the most meaningful and romantic moments happen in the comfort of your own home.
Create a cozy, intimate setting with an indoor picnic&mdash;spread out a blanket, add soft lighting, and play your favorite music while enjoying a meal together. For a more relaxed vibe, opt for a movie night featuring nostalgic films or classic rom-coms. If you have a balcony or rooftop, step outside to soak in the beauty of the night sky. Snuggle up with a warm drink, gaze at the stars, and reminisce about your favorite shared memories, turning a simple moment into something truly special.

<h2>Why Flowers Make the Best Last-Minute Gift</h2>
When time is running out, flowers remain the most elegant and timeless Valentine&rsquo;s gift. Each bloom carries a special meaning&mdash;roses for love, lilies for devotion, and tulips for affection. Flowers don&rsquo;t just look beautiful; they communicate emotions in a way words sometimes can&rsquo;t. They also elevate your surprises, adding a layer of care and emotion to your gesture. A bouquet paired with a handwritten note, a romantic dinner, or even a last-minute getaway transforms any moment into something truly special.
With<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/valentines-day/"> French Florist&rsquo;s collection</a>, you can order a stunning floral arrangement at the last minute while still making your gift feel meaningful and thoughtful. Flowers add an instant romantic touch, whether they&rsquo;re delivered as a surprise or presented in person during a special moment.

Last-Minute Valentine’s Day Surprises

Tips & Tricks

<div class="entry-content bla">
Outdoor flowers bloom at different times during the growing season. It is just the nature of their growing and their flowering cycle. If you've ever wondered why you see&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/2874">potted mums</a>&nbsp;everywhere during fall, the reason is simple.
Mums are photo-periodic flowers. That means that the mechanism that makes them produce buds and flower is shorter days and longer nights. They are also flowers that thrive in cooler weather, especially cooler nights, something that isn't typical among&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/2414">flowering plants</a>.
If you want to add fall color to your landscape, the ideal plant to choose is a&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/180">Chrysanthemum</a>. Although mums come in every color you can imagine, some of the popular fall colors are those people traditionally associate with this time of the year. The colors are symbolic of harvest and the changing colors of tree leaves.
If you want to plant mums to add color to your fall landscape, make sure you are getting plants that are specifically labeled as garden mums. These are suitable for outdoor growth. You can keep them in containers, or you can put them in the ground, creating mass compact clusters of warm fall color.
The ideal time to buy garden mum is in spring, but if you decide to purchase them in fall, you can still plant them in the ground. You will have less time to enjoy their showy display of copper, bronze, gold,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm/iteID/1742">yellows</a>, and other earthy colors. Make sure you plant your outdoor mums in a place where they get plenty of sunlight during the day, and total darkness during the night. Street lights or light from other sources will disrupt the plant's internal clock system.
Protect your mums from those intense, dry northerly and northwesterly winds. When planting your new starts or mature plants in fall, don't fertilize your plants at all. Keep them consistently moist, but not soggy. Make sure you amend your soil with organic matter to improve drainage before planting. Other than water, you can pretty much neglect these plants until spring'.Once a freeze kills off your plants, pile a two-inch layer of loose mulch around the base of our plants. That will protect important crown area where the roots meet the stems.
The following spring, once you're sure there is no longer a danger of frost, cut the dead woody stems back and wait for the new growth to emerge. Once the plants start to grow, fertilize them once a month until mid to late July. With proper care, and the right growing conditions, you will delight in watching your mums bursting with color for as long as the weather will permit.

Flowers offer a bit of life and beauty that everyone can appreciate, as they help to light up the room wherever they are placed. Those looking around for the best flower arrangements for the occasion should consider the following options.
Orange roses
Although red <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> are associated with romantic love,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=1737">orange roses&nbsp;</a>have a different meaning entirely. Traditionally they are used to signify enthusiasm and gratitude, which are two emotions that those recognizing Veterans Day would like to capture. A bouquet or arrangement of orange flowers can also be used to signify friendships and love, which are also appropriate messages for the day. Even those who are not familiar with the exact messages associate with the flower selection should find the bouquet lovely and they will appreciate the sentiment behind it.<img class="alignright wp-image-271 size-full" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2014/11/thumbnail-1.jpg" alt="Orange roses" width="266" height="275" loading="lazy" />
Fall colors
Veterans Day comes at a time of year when many people are witnessing the changing of the <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/trees/">trees</a> and cooling temperatures while they begin to move increasingly indoors. The warmth of the fall colors can help light up the inside of homes, making the flowers even more appreciated.&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=2906">Daisies a</a>re a wonderful flower because they can bring a number of the rich fall colors into a single bouquet that perfectly matches the time of year. The soft fall colors of the flowers make them beautiful and appreciated by all.
<img class="alignleft wp-image-272 size-full" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2014/11/thumbnail-2.jpg" alt="Fall colors" width="258" height="263" loading="lazy" />Patriotic memorial
Sadly, Veterans Day also serves as a common time to remember those who have passed who also served in the nation's armed forces, especially those who may have died in combat. Many loved ones use the day to visit gravesites and attend memorials. A patriotic flower arrangement may be the perfect marker to remember and thank those who sacrificed so much to defend the country. Look for one that uses red, white, and blue in a&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/product.cfm?iteID=396">stunning arrangement.</a>
Veterans Day is the time to say '<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/thank-you/">thank you'</a> to all those who have helped to defend this nation, both living and deceased. Those looking for the perfect gift for either either a loved one or for a memorial should consider the above ideas and begin working to find the arrangement that will fit their particular situation best.

FRESH NEW YEAR's BEGINNINGS START FROM THE GROUND UP

Roses

<div class="entry-content bla">
When it comes to choosing a summer flower to fill up your table <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/designer-vases/">vases</a>, to give as a gift to a loved one, or to adorn a reception hall for a wedding, no other flower dominates the scene except the rose. Roses have been a symbol of love and beauty for generations as this flower has been around for over 35 million years. So it isn't any wonder why people choose to have such a wonderful and fragrant flower in their homes during the summer.
As you pick out a rose product from&nbsp;<a style="color: #0782c1;" href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/" data-cke-saved-href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a>, whether it is a dozen red <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">roses</a> for someone special or a few long stem yellow roses to brighten the house, make sure to take care of them immediately. The sooner you care for the cut roses, the longer they will last. Here at French Florist, we love to offer people the latest tips for caring for cut flowers. Don't simply assume that the way you treat your roses will be the same as you treat your lilies, marigolds, or other flowers. Each cut flower is different as each one needs special care tailored to their particular species.
<h2 style="font-weight: normal; color: #333333;">Caring For Cut Roses</h2>
After you purchase the cut flowers from French Florist, you need to get them in water immediately, even if the flower will be a gift for someone later. Roses in particular need to keep hydrated to last for a week or more. The moment you get the flowers in the house, put them in a container of water as you can then get ready to prepare them for your vase.
Prepare your vase by washing it out and filling it with lukewarm water. The water temperature should be around 100 degrees ' about the same temperature if you are soaking in a nice relaxing bath. Place the plant food that we provide with your cut roses into the water by following the package directions.
Next, cut rose stems using a non-serrated knife. You want to cut the roses with the stems under lukewarm water. Go up about an inch and trim off the bottom at an angle. Then remove any leaves and thorns that will be under the vase water to prevent bacteria from forming.
Now you can place the roses into the vase. To prolong the life of the roses, you want to place them in fresh water every day and cut the stems every other day. Remember to clean out the vase and add new flower food as you'll be amazed at just how long the roses will last.

A recent report revealed that over 75% of grandparents considered their role in the family as the best experience of their life. Moreover, they are a proud group 90% of them admitted to talking about their grandchildren every single day, to any audience they could find! &nbsp;There is no denying that grandparents cherish their grandchildren, and anyone who grew up with a loving Nana or Pop-Pop knows the feeling is mutual.
In fact, studies prove that children whose childhood included the presence of an involved grandparent &nbsp;were more confident and secure as adults. Overall, they had a greater sense of well-being and were more likely to take chances and be adventurous. This is likely attributed to the safety net which a legacy and family history provides assuring children of their place in the world. &nbsp;This is the dynamic which we celebrate on National <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/grandparents-day/">Grandparents Day</a>. When looking for Grandparents Day flowers, look no further than French Florist.&nbsp;<a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/super-values-los-angeles/cymbidium-orchid-bouquet/"><img class="alignleft wp-image-1058 size-full" src="https://flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2017/08/french.gif" alt="purple and white flowers " width="450" height="500" loading="lazy" /></a>
Family Ties:&nbsp;Grandparents Day celebrates the mutual benefit of the grandparent / grandchild relationship. However, the birth of a grandchild also appears to assist families to navigate relationships in general, as adult children often experience an improved relationship with their own parents when they become parents themselves.
Cookies and a Few Dollars: It's no secret that grandparents spoil their grandkids. But you may be surprised to hear the extent of the lavishness grandparents expend close to $52 billion per year on gifts for the kids, and nearly $32 billion annually to help with education costs.
Traditional Family Structure:&nbsp;Although in years gone by multi-generational living was the norm, in recent decades that custom was greatly minimized here in America. However, researchers are now finding that nearly 40% of homes once again have a grandparent in residence, a positive trend for family dynamics.
