Spring Pink Flowers For Any Occasion, Even Valentine's Day



I like spring flowers like tulips, rannancurus, and cherry blossoms. These spring colors are refreshing to my eyes, especially after Christmas and New Year's floral colors such as red, white, gold, and silver. Oops! Valentine's Day will coming soon so red red red!! (But remember a romantic sentiment can be pink as well).

Flowers seen in my photos are local tulips, rannancurus, and Asiatic white lilies simply placed in a glass vase. The result is a natural floral design.

Decorate a House for Sell with Flowers



When one decorates a house that is for sell it is called “staging a house.” Many decorators will use plants or silk flowers. One of my customers, who was selling her house, loves fresh flowers and asked me to design some floral arrangements for her house staging. For one of the arrangements I wanted to create an interesting accent so I wove palm leaf. I placed it on the entrance side table and it immediately brightened the house.

Table Floral Arrangements


This flower arrangement was for a customer’s house party in Woodside. Their rooms are mostly warm colors — butter yellow, rusty brown, and gold. I didn’t want to use dark colors for the flower arrangement so I picked peach and yellow as main colors and used ranunculus and peach roses. These turned out bright warm and matched the room — a nice match for a spring party.

Traditional Red Rose Flower Arrangement for Customer’s Party!










This unique flower arrangement was for a customer’s party at SFO Marriott Hotel (San Francisco, CA). She had a party for 3 days straight. Can you party that long?

Her theme was red roses with green accents and branches, so I decided to design a party arrangement in a modern floral style. Yet I used traditional red roses because it is still beautiful, even though many people now prefer dark red roses like a Black Magic Rose.
I realize that even though red roses are popular to the point of being cliche, these floral arrangements still turned out nice!! The rose I used is called Forever Young and like the name, they last much longer.
