Why Gift Flowers and Plants in Summer?

Gift-giving is an art, and one that becomes even more delightful when touched by nature’s vibrancy. In summer 2024, more than ever, we seek to connect with nature and our loved ones through thoughtful gestures. Flowers and plants do not just brighten up a garden; they can have a substantial positive impact on one’s wellbeing, making them an ideal gift for any occasion. They bring life to any space, purify the air, and can even reduce stress, enhancing the heady joy of summer days. Whether you are celebrating a special event, thanking a gracious host, or simply spreading summertime cheer, here are some thrilling ideas to consider for your flower and plant gifting this coming summer.

Best Summer Flower Gift Varieties

When it comes to gifting flowers in the summer, opt for species that can stand the heat and continue to bloom. Here are some robust yet radiant options that make for perfect gifts:

  • Sunflowers: Symbolizing adoration and loyalty, sunflowers are a quintessential part of summer that can tower with sunshine in a garden.
  • Zinnias: Offering a spectrum of color and requiring minimal care, zinnias will flourish in the summer heat.
  • Lavender: Not only does lavender add a calming fragrance to any space, but it also attracts pollinators to the garden.
  • Roses: While roses are a classic, certain varieties handle the summer sun better than others – look for heat-tolerant breeds.

Do not just opt for plant types; consider potted arrangements that combine these flowers for a gift that keeps on blooming as the season progresses.

Unique Summer Plant Gifts

For something a little different, potted plants offer longevity and can be a constant reminder of your thoughtfulness. Here are some of the best summer plant picks:

  • Succulents and cacti: Known for their hardiness, they are perfect for summer gifting and can suit even those without a green thumb.
  • Herb gardens: Gifting a selection of potted herbs like basil, mint, or cilantro provides a practical and fragrant present.
  • Fruit-bearing plants: Consider dwarf lemon or lime trees which can be grown in containers and offer a zesty surprise.

Remember to include care instructions to help the recipient keep their new plant thriving.

The Power of Summer Flowers

Flowers have a special way of brightening up any space they are in. But did you know that they also have a positive impact on our mental and emotional well-being? Studies have shown that being around flowers can reduce stress, improve mood, and even boost creativity. In summer 2024, when we’re all looking for ways to relax and unwind after a difficult year, gifting summer flowers is the perfect way to spread joy and positivity.

Plant Gifts: A Gift That Keeps on Giving

While flowers are undoubtedly beautiful, they eventually wilt and fade away. On the other hand, potted plants offer long-lasting beauty and can be a constant reminder of your thoughtfulness. They also have numerous benefits like purifying the air, reducing stress levels, and improving focus. Plus, with proper care, they can continue to grow and thrive for years to come.

Summer Flower and Plant Gift Ideas

Now that we know the many benefits of gifting plants and flowers, let us explore some options that are guaranteed to make your loved one’s smile:

  • Sunflowers: Nothing says summer like a bright and cheerful sunflower. Symbolizing adoration and loyalty, these iconic flowers will add a touch of sunshine to any garden or home.
  • Lavender: Known for its calming and relaxing properties, lavender makes for a thoughtful gift for anyone looking to unwind in the summer heat. Not only does it add a beautiful fragrance to any space, but it also attracts pollinators to the garden.
  • Roses: While roses are a classic, certain varieties handle the summer sun better than others. Look for heat-resistant varieties like Knock Out roses, which are low maintenance and bloom all summer long.

Tips for Choosing the Perfect Summer Floral and Plant Gifts

To ensure your gift is well-received and flourishes, consider the following:

  • Assess the recipient’s environment: Do they have garden space, or would they prefer something that can live indoors?
  • Skill level: Are they a seasoned gardener or new to plant care? Choose a plant that matches their comfort level.
  • Allergies: Make sure the recipient is not allergic to the flower or plant you are gifting.

Beyond the Bouquet: Presentation Matters

Presentation can turn a lovely gesture into an unforgettable one. Choose unique pots, stylish baskets, or personalize with decorative elements that resonate with the recipient’s taste.

POPULAR SUMMER FLOWERS

1. Full Bloom Hydrangea – is a perennial flower that blooms in late summer or early fall, producing large clusters of white or pink flowers that smell like honey when they open up. Hydrangea grows best in shade but can tolerate partial sun if it’s not too hot out—just make sure you don’t over water your hydrangea bouquet.

Hydrangea are an evergreen perennial plant that produces flowers during the summer months. The flowers are known as “Hydrangea macrophylla”. There are two main types of hydrangeas, including: white and blue (moss). These plants have large leaves, which gives them their common name “Bigleaf Hydrangea”. The color of the flowers varies depending on the variety; however, most varieties have shades of pink or purple petals with contrasting white centers.

2. Gerbera Daisies – are probably one of the easiest summer flowers to find and care for—all you need is water and sunshine! They also look great when arranged together with other kinds of flowers like roses or sunflowers in either bouquets or centerpieces at weddings or other events throughout summertime months (June-August). Gerbera daisies are a type of flower that is often used in bouquets and arrangements. They are bright, colorful, and beautiful to look at.

Gerbera daisies are different than other flowers because they come in so many different colors and sizes that they can be used almost anywhere in your home or garden. They also have an unusual shape which makes them stand out from other flowers when put together in bouquets or arrangements.

3. Lilacs – are beautiful shrubs that bloom in the spring and summer, producing fragrant flowers that smell like vanilla or almond. They grow best in shade and need very little water once established, making them perfect for those with limited space or time for gardening. Lilacs are commonly used in bouquets and wreaths. They are a really popular flower in the summer months.

4. Roses – are one of the most popular summer flowers. They look beautiful in bouquets, they smell great, and they’re easy to care for. Plus, they last a long time. Roses are a type of flower that is known for its beauty, scent and simplicity. Roses have been around for centuries and have been used in different ways throughout history; they have been used as an ingredient in food, medicine, perfume and even wine. There are many types of roses, and each one has their own unique characteristics that make them stand out from the rest.

5. Sunflowers – aren’t just for fall anymore! They’re bright yellow petals will brighten up any room, and their stems are perfect for making arrangements that can last through winter if properly cared for. The design staff at Samantha Rose Designs loves using sunflowers in our summer floral collection. These flowers have a bold, cheery look and can be grown from seed or cuttings. They’re also quite easy to care for and they are fabulous in occasion themed bouquets.

6. Zinnias – Zinnia flowers come in many different colors, so they’re perfect if you want something colorful but not too over the top; they’ll add just the right amount of color to any arrangement. The flower heads of zinnias are made up of many tiny florets arranged in a circle around a central disc. Each floret has five petals that come together at the center to form a star shape. The color of these petals varies between yellow, orange, red, and purple depending on which variety you choose!

Zinnas also have long stems with leaves growing from them at regular intervals along their length. Each leaf grows from a separate node on its stem; these nodes produce both leaves and flowers simultaneously so that there’s always something available for pollination when needed!
