Grandparents Day Floral Designs

There may be no one more special people in our lives than grandparents - and given that fact, having a day to recognize them seems like a great idea to us! Grandparents Day is observed on September 10, and was originally the vision of a woman named Marian McQuade. A mother and grandmother herself, Marian did not set out to create a commercial holiday, rather to set aside a time that the elder generation could impart stories, wisdom and history to their kids and grandkids. It is a day to spend time together and enjoy being a family. Billy Heroman's Flowers & Gifts loves the idea of bringing people together and celebrating family. When you are looking for the perfect Grandparents Day floral designs to express your love and gratitude, we've got everything you need.  Read More about Grandparents Day Floral Designs »

Outdoor Gardens for Butterflies & Bees

Summer is in full swing, and with the new season comes the expectation that insects of all sorts will visit your backyard or outdoor gardens. Some of these visitors are welcome - for instance, butterflies and bees create a lovely atmosphere that not only celebrates summer, but is important to our ecosystem. And as certain flowers will attract these insects more readily, we invite you to work with Billy Heroman's Flowers & Gifts to choose from an array of beautiful plants and flowers that are sure to be inviting. Butterflies love fresh water, a sunny spot that's shielded from the wind, and plenty of nectar. Certain flowers work well in these conditions, too, and contain the right ingredients to bring butterflies - or even caterpillars- to your landscape. Gardens full of milkweed, sunflowers, asters and goldenrod, for example, make great homes for caterpillars and the butterflies they will become.
