Gerbera Galore

Like a burst of sun and cheer is a flower quickly growing in fame, with color and confidence exuding from every petal—the gerbera daisy. Known as a bloom to bring cheer and a lot of smiles, the daisy is a “classic symbol of beauty,” and can also be interpreted to mean cheerfulness.[1]

No wonder this beautiful flower gained recognition and has only continued to catch the eye of many. In fact, it has quickly become one of the hottest trends not only for floral arrangements and home gardens showpieces, but also for wedding bouquets and ceremony and reception decorations. Most commonly used in spring and summer weddings, the gerbera daisy has even gained speed in fall and winter weddings as well.

One of my absolute favorite wedding bouquets was done right here in our shop just last weekend. The colors were bold, yet muted enough to capture the essence of fall beauty. The element, however, that gave this bouquet a completed look was the stunning appearance of the large, crimson, gerbera bloom. It simply pulled the look together in a unique way.
All of our arrangements that include gerberas seem to have an eye catching, second-glance-worthy look to them. If you want to see for yourself be sure to look us up on Facebook and become a fan! For your enjoyment, I will frequently be updating our photo albums with our work—so be sure to check it out!
