Pincushion Protea

We’re thankful for protea because they’re our favorite! This super cool flower gets its name from Greek mythology when Proteus, son of Poseidon, would disguise himself to hide from those seeking his prophesies. Being able to change his shape at will is why the protea, with over 1,400 varieties and shapes, to be named for him. Today, protea like those in our Canary Yellow bouquet represent diversity and courage, stemming from its association with transformation and change.

Succulents

Succulents are another favorite of ours because they are truly the gift that keeps on giving. Succulents are long-lasting and low-maintenance, so when a beautiful bouquet like our Succulent Sunset has served its time, recipients can know the succulent can be planted and easily maintained for months. These also add earthy texture to any design, making a lovely complement to bright colorful or delicate flowers.
