Ranunculus! Such a beautiful flower. We use them extensively in the Spring for their colorful full heads (similar to a peony), and fresh colors. These sun-loving flowers are normally found in abundance through local growers in late March through May— a definite favorite for wedding florals. Bet you didn’t know, though, that the whole flowering plant is known for its medicinal properties. In traditional medicine, dried petals were used to soothe body aches and sore joints, and the roots were used to treat skin ailments.
Ranunculus were first introduced to Europe in the 16th century during the reign of Elizabeth I, along with Tulips and Anemones.
Ranging in color from pastel pinks to fiery reds, these flowers also come in white, cream, yellow, orange, gold and purple.
When it’s cold, the flower keeps itself warm by forming its petals into a cup shape to collect sunlight. This makes a magnificent home for insects and bugs who flock to its centre for warmth. A truly amazing flower! #ranunculus #spring #gardenflowers #arrangingwithranunculus #flowersfromtheheart #valleycenterflorist #sandiegoflorist #sandiegoweddings #northcountyweddings #northcountysmallbusiness #valleycenterweddings #floralbouquet #weddingflowers

Enchanted! 💜 I love “playing with flowers!” A trip to my favorite flower vendors yielded some pretty great finds as I plan for a June wedding with a fun theme. This time, creating a woodland “enchanted forest” feel all in lavenders and sage. Now you know my secret— selecting just the right colors and textures to capture the essence of the bride’s vision is my first step in making the “magic” happen! Stay tuned for more of my creating-a-wedding updates! #enchanted #taylorswift #enchantedforest #lordoftheringswedding #sageandlavender #woodlandwedding #weddinginspiration #juneweddings #s#valleycenterflorist #northcountyflorist #woodlandromancewedding #justtherightcombination #sandiegoweddings #northcounty weddings # valleycenterweddings #swifties #lavenderflowers

Top o’ the morning! La Mesa Floral Artistry (and this Irish lass) was “dancing a jig,” celebrating another lovely event on the water at the legendary Tom Ham’s Lighthouse in San Diego. This, a fundraising luncheon for the Friendly Son’s of St. Patrick, a local benevolent organization. Bells of Ireland, white wax and a variety of greens accented the dining tables.

With sympathy, from one friend to another on the loss of her Mother. Soothing tones and fragrant blooms in her favorite pinks and purples to bring comfort and peace. 💖🌸💖
Deep, rich Fall tones, and a flash of sparkle were just the right combination for this celebratory arrangement to recognize a Nursing student’s graduation! Hats off, and well done! Such a great achievement! 👩⚕️🩺🎓
