It's nearly the 4th of July, that iconic summer holiday that gives us all the patriotic feels and the chance to spend time with friends and family. You might be hanging out by the lake or the pool, throwing the football around in the backyard, or hosting that barbecue where all of your neighbors inevitably drift over. Maybe you'll spend the day at a parade and the evening outdoors, catching one of the firework shows in the evening, but if you're playing host to anything social at all, get yourself some flowers. There are so many red, white and blue arrangements available that show your pride and spirit. Griffin's Floral Design loves one in particular for your holiday table.

Are you excited for the arrival of summer but sad to see spring go? Don't be. There's so much overlap between these two seasons (yes, one is definitely hotter and its days are longer), that the transition doesn't have to be difficult. One way to celebrate what these warm weather months have in common is to pull the flowers they have in common together into a beautiful arrangement that speaks to the warm spirit of both. Griffin's Floral Designs knows that summer's blooms tend to be a bit more assertive and bolder in color, leaving behind the softer hues of spring. But we think we have the perfect piece that bridges the very small gap between both. Read More about A Taste of Summer, Via Spring »

Mother's Day is a big deal for the floral industry---some have even called it the "Superbowl of Flowers"---and we here at Griffin's Floral Design understand why. Flowers have been with us since ancient times, evolving over millennia into the enticing blossoms we know and love today. Flowers have always been used for nourishment, an invaluable part of the life cycle for various animals. They have been prized for their beauty, their ability to bring nature inside, their aesthetic appeal, and countless other qualities. They are common and yet rare, groomed indoors and yet often found growing in the wild. On May 13th, we give them to our mothers because of their many virtues, not least of which is that flowers can articulate how we feel where language falls short.
