Sweetpea’s, Sunflowers and Dahlia’s
Sweepeas for my grandma Mary.
Sunflowers for my granny.
And if you know my story Dahlia’s for my son.
One of the business decisions I made after starting this flower season is I’m going to supplement my Dahlia’s with flower favorites of my loved ones that are no longer here.
So far it’s been a GREAT choice for All Dahlia’d Up and our customers.
We’ve had our first wedding with Sunflower and Dahlia bouquets and at Monday Market everyone is saying how much they LOVE sweetpeas!
Just for fun here are these three flower meanings with photographs from our flower patch. Enjoy!
Sunflowers, are considered the “happy flower” they symbolize adoration, loyalty and longevity. Much of the meaning of sunflowers stems from its namesake, the sun itself. They are bright and cheery, and as warm and inviting as the sweet summer sun on your face. With bright yellow petals, also known as “rays,” sunflowers have an unmistakable sun-like appearance that has made them a favorite, especially in the summer months.
Sweetpea, Butterfly 5 petal shape, known for their sweet fragrance, always a favorite. Meaning…thank you for a lovely time. Beautiful in arrangements and weddings.
Dahlia, When given as a gift, the dahlia expresses dignity, elegance and enduring grace. It is also the symbol of a commitment bond that lasts forever. Also a wedding flower favorite.
Hope your summer has a been a great one so far!
