August is Romance Awareness Month and Huisman Flowers as the caring Custom Floral Collection to choose from

Huisman Flowers

August is Romance Awareness Month. Huisman Flowers specializes in creating the most caring, romantic and sweet flower arrangements in town. Often people think only of Valentine’s Day as the one day per year when special romance takes place.

The beauty of Romance Awareness Month is that it provides a mid year reminder that romance should always be present. Huisman Flowers and our creative Floral Designers are standing by to help you select a super romantic flower arrangement for your special person.

If you want to do more in addition to giving beautiful Huisman Flowers flowers, below are a few simple activities. Remember that often it is the simple things that mean the most.

  • How romantic an evening stroll can be. Of course it is August so perhaps wait until sunset and bring water.
  • Almost everyone enjoys a good movie. Pick the style you and your special one enjoy and then go to the theatre or rent a movie at home.
  • If you are a good writer, create a love letter or poem and leave it where they will find it.
  • Are you a pretty good cook? If so delight your sweetie with their favorite home cooked meal.
  • Sweets for the sweet. Surprise your special someone with their very favorite desert.
  • Take time to talk to one another and share perhaps their favorite trait that you just love.
  • You do not have to go to a loud concert or night club. Quiet time together can be very peaceful and renewing.
  • How many couples go to bed at different times. Instead for Romance Awareness Month, try going to bed at the same time. Maybe read your favorite books together.

Huisman Flowers has the freshest, most colorful, most romantic and most caring flower arrangements. Below are only a few of our many choices:

Colors Of The Rainbow Bouquet – Color any occasion beautiful with this lovely bouquet of hydrangea, roses and lilies in all the colors of the rainbow.

This arrangement is flexible, in that it is appropriate to send for many different occasions, including Anniversaries, Birthdays, Get Well, Just Because and many more.

Due to various seasonal and regional conditions, and the variety of unplanned issues courtesy of COVID 19 and Mother Nature, availability of some flowers may be very limited in certain areas. Also, specific flower varieties or colors may not be available for delivery on a specified day. Therefore, it is possible that the exact bouquet pictured or requested may not be available for delivery.

Occasionally, substitutions may be necessary to create your bouquet due to the availability of certain flowers in various parts of the country. Care is taken to maintain the style, theme and color scheme of the arrangement, using flowers of equal value. Additionally, the substitution of certain keepsake items may be necessary due to increased demand, especially during major holidays.

Shop with Huisman Flowers for exquisite Succulents to dress up your patio

Huisman Flowers

Succulents make amazing and unique summer decorations. They are also great conversation pieces due to the many shapes, colors and varieties.  Huisman Flowers offers an array of Succulents to choose from.  Our very talented, professional and caring floral designers will help you find the perfect patio or poolside Succulent.

These exquisite plants are very drought resistant. Succulents are able to absorb and retain large amounts of water and so the leaves, stems and roots often get a very fleshy appearance. The water retainage allows these plants to survive very hot and arid conditions.

Below are a few of the many colorful and interesting varieties of Succulent Plants:

Burro’s Tail  – This cool plant grows to about four inches long and yes resembles a donkey’s tail.  They are not hard to care for and do best in a container that drains well.

Crown of Thorns – These enjoy being close to a window to receive about three to four hours of sunlight per day. When its soil is completely dry it is time to water. One myth about the Crown of Thorns comes from Thailand where it is thought that the more flowers that bloom the better future the plant owner will have.

Flaming Katy – How about a plant from Madagascar? The Flaming Katy does best when temperatures are between 60 to 80 degrees and they enjoy well draining clay pots. They have dark red, gold and white flowers if allowed to have eight to ten hours of sunlight.

Aloe Vera – Most everyone has heard of Aloe Vera. There are medical ointments made from the juices of this plant. People use it for scrapes and burns as well as some cosmetics. Of course it can make an attractive house plant as well with its thick, pointed leaves that are variegated with spots of white.

Panda Plant – The Panda Plant is an interesting houseplant and topic of discussion. It actually has fuzzy leaves that have brownish red markings on the edges thus making it resemble a panda. Long living many people use them in hanging planters.

Pincushion Cactus – Native to Mexico, the spikes on this plant give this cactus its name. It does not grow beyond six inches tall but still can give a dessert feel to any home.

Hens-and-Chicks – Although they have a relatively short life span of three years this succulent produces red flowers in the shape of a crown. It does produce offspring thus the name Hens- and-Chicks. It is said to live forever due to its reproductive ability.

Stonecrop – These come in numerous colors of green, pink and blue. Some of them grow tall while other varieties are more like creeping vines.

Ball Cactus –  The ball cactus only grows to two feet tall and has the unique shape of a hot air balloon.  These are great for patio pots and produce yellow flowers.

Pig’s Ear – Growing to heights of four feet the Pig’s Ear succulent has thick oval leaves with red edges. It requires little water but does take up a lot of garden space.

Sunburst –The sunburst succulent is native to the Canary Islands so it does best in an ocean air environment. It has three basic colors of green, white and yellow variegated leaves and grows to a height of two feet.

Torch Plant  – Having light green leaves that turn darker in the full sun, the Torch Plant also produces orange colored blossoms and can grow to heights of ten feet feet.

Floral Design Day

Floral Design Day was created in honor of a gentleman by the name of Carl Rittner.  Mr. Rittner ran a school for floral design in Boston appropriately named “The Rittners School of Floral Design”.  People interested in the floral design work space flocked to his teachings both domestically and internationally.

As the talented designers at Huisman Flowers will tell you, designing flowers is an art form.  These folks must learn to think outside the box and be able to visualize the end product they want to create.  Flowers  convey so many different meanings thus it is important that a floral designer put their heart and soul into their work. The floral designers at  Huisman Flowers are loaded with talent.

When you have a true appreciation for art, you will recognize that flower design creations are magnificent, colorful and symbolic.  That is why there is a special day devoted to the art of floral design. When you consider the number of stunning flower arrangements delivered all over the world everyday and the countless floral designers involved in the process, it is mind boggling. That is why Floral Design Day is so special to all of the designers in the industry.

Becoming a floral designer in the multibillion dollar floral industry is a process. A key ingredient is the true passion for creating beautiful art. One may enter the floral design industry with a high school diploma but to really hone their skills and develop knowledge, continuing education is invaluable.

Courses offered at community colleges or trade schools can deepen a persons knowledge and understanding of floral design. People can receive on the job training by working in green houses or other horticultural environments. For those truly motivated by a career as a floral designer, it is possible to obtain the Certified Floral Designer credential offered by The American Institute of Floral Designers.

So how would you write a job description for a Floral Designer or Florist? Perhaps like below:

  • Ability to create attractive flower arrangements
  • Understand the life cycle of flowers
  • Understand the properties of flowers like delicacies and toxicity
  • Knowledge of wholesale purchasing
  • Ability to educate consumers on flower and plant care

The Floral Designers at Huisman Flowers are passionate and creative. You will be amazed and pleased with any floral product you select.
