At this time of year, we are all reminded of the many things for which we can be thankful. Have you ever thought about how flowers enrich our lives? Research shows that the flowers we select to display in our homes add a bit of our personality to our home décor. At Billy Heroman’s Flowers, we are happy to share a few of our favorite flowers, explain what each means, and see which blooms will become your favorites too.

Sunflowers

Wild and Free

With their bright yellow petals that often remind us of sunshine, these flowers, with contrasting centers, make a pleasing addition to almost any arrangement! Our Wild and Free display includes sunflowers to bring happiness and cheer into your home housed in a rustic, grey container. Just like the people who admire these blooms, sunflowers tell the world that you are an enthusiastic and optimistic person who enjoys life. Place them throughout your home for a positive energy boost!

Orange and Yellow Lilies

Splash of Autumn Bouquet

Classic lilies come in many varieties and always add elegance and dignity. Lilies often represent kindness and compassion. Traditionally used in more formal settings such as wedding bouquets and funeral arrangements, lilies promote a sign of respect. The orange lily is perfect for showcasing in displays such as our Splash of Autumn bouquet. Orange lilies, surrounded by sunflowers and orange roses, will add bright cheer to your home.

Rover Mums

Bold & Beautiful Bouquet

When leaves start to fall, our thoughts turn to autumn. The rover mum is often hardy and long-lasting making it the perfect flower to withstand the cooler fall temperatures. Representing cheerfulness and optimism, chrysanthemums are the typical choice of flower for an autumn arrangement like our Bold & Beautiful bouquet. Found in a variety of sizes, rover mums are often dark red to bronze petals which lead to a bright yellow center. Because of their vibrant color, these mums are among our favorites!

Solidago

Golden Bloom Bouquet

Also known as goldenrod, the solidago bloom is usually bright yellow with clusters of tiny flowers. Solidago is useful in floral arrangements like our Golden Bloom bouquet to bring a pop of color and add height to a bouquet. Because of its yellow hue, solidago is often used in autumn displays that include flowers typically grown in the fall.

Hypericum Berries

Fresh Holiday Arrangement

Although not a traditional flower, hypericum’s perfectly round berries range in shades from pink to red to green. The berries, found on a woody green stem are sturdy and add a playfulness to floral displays. These beautiful berries, grown mostly in the fall, add texture and interest to any bouquet.

Choosing favorite flowers can seem like a difficult task with so many lovely blooms out there. Understanding what each flower represents can help you add a sense of your own personality by including your favorite blooms to display in your home. You can also send personal bouquets to friends and family that include their favorite flowers. At Billy Heroman’s Flowers, we are excited to share our favorite flowers with you and hope that you will find some new favorites too.
