Festive Fall Floral Decor

Fall is here! For many, this is the time of year that conveys joy and anticipation of the winter holidays. Trips to the country to see the fall foliage, lazy days spent walking around a small town in Vermont or the Adirondacks, and memories of cider doughnuts and apple picking. With all the wonderful things to see outside, it's easy to forget the many ways to make home just as warm, welcoming and colorful.

The easiest way to add color to your home for the fall is hardy mums. They are easy to display, and will stand up to the cool fall temperatures here in the northeast. The most popular was to decorate a home with them is to either plant them directly into existing plant beds, say around your walkway, porch or light post, or, alternatively, to display them in nice planters that hold enough soil to keep the mums moist. A word of caution on planters: Be sure to choose a heavier design, as when planters become too dry, they tend to be tipped over by wind. However, a simple fix for this is often crushed stone at the base of the planter beneath the soil to weigh them down. Also, be sure to make sure they have proper drainage.





Wreaths are also a great way to make your home warm and inviting. They are also the perfect gift for your hostess when you are over for a special dinner or visiting! Silks are best, as they withstand every condition. Our designers can customize a wreath to make sure it fits your taste, and compliments the decor of your home. Door wreaths, indoor wreaths, wall swags. You name it, we can do it.

Last but not least, fresh fall arrangements are a wonderful addition to any home, and they also make great gifts for any occasion. In an era where social media reigns, people often appreciate the gift of flowers so much more than a get well, congratulations or thank you message on you page or wall. We are a member of Teleflora, so we can send arrangements both locally and across the country as well.
