Special features include the distinctive flower shape that opens and closes when its mouth is squeezed, making it a unique and engaging plant. Beyond its appearance, snapdragons attract pollinators like bees, can have a long blooming period, and are known for their use in various forms of folklore and decorative applications.  

The Lisianthus resembles a rose with its tightly closed buds on long stems. As the flower opens, the ruffled petals give the flower the grace and charm of a wild rose. The multi-branched stems have several buds that open successively. Colors include white, lavender, purple, pink or bi-colors.

Beautiful & vibrant, zinnias are a must in any bouquet  Their crayon-bright colors, fabulous forms and long vase life make it a perfect for fresh cut flowers.

We can say that they are bright and cheery, and as warm and inviting as the sweet summer sun. Yellow, red, & white are a few of the colors but they all say summer is here.

Who can resist dahlias in their diversity of colour, size and style - late summer just wouldn't be the same without at least a few dahlias in the home.

Marigolds are comprised of tiny florets surrounded by many layers of delicate, ruffled petals and a thick hollow stem with fernlike leaves. A great addition to fall bouquets.
