Copyright (c) 2006-2008 Wesley Berry, AAF Wesley Berry Flowers http://www.800wesleys.com/ Which holiday is the biggest for flower sales? I'll bet you're thinking Valentine's Day or Mother's Day. Well, those two are certainly big, but it's Christmas that draws more customers into flower shops than any other holiday. Perhaps that's because flowers bring a festive feel to any room they adorn while also making people feel happy and welcome. With that in mind, florists are already beginning to plan their stock and design beautiful displays to help you choose the perfect flowers for your home this holiday season. According to Rebecca Cole, the host of Surprise by Design on the Discover Channel, this year's floral trends for Christmas will be all about returning us to the Christmases of our childhoods. She says, "Because we're returning to our roots and hosting intimate celebrations at home, we'll see more traditional colors, and greenery, whose scents bring us back to our childhood." Christmas has traditionally been associated with green pine boughs, ivy, and holly. Making greenery a part of the winter season dates back centuries to days when people believed that bringing foliage into the home during the cold winter months would ensure the return of healthy green foliage in the spring. As a result, we still use green as a big part of our Christmas decorating color schemes. To help you bring flowers and greenery into your home for Christmas this year, Cole offers these ideas: * Use fresh and fragrant pine in your centerpiece. To add some color to the greenery, include flowers that complement the colors and décor of the room. * Visit your florist to purchase bundles of evergreen, cypress, and mistletoe. Use them in various rooms around your house. They'll look great draped over a doorway or placed on your mantel. * Use small evergreen topiaries or tiny Christmas trees decked out in bows and flowers to line your mantel or the line down the center of your table. * Use poinsettias in the color variety that best complements your home. They're available in many colors, including pink, peach, white, plum, speckled, marbled, and, of course, the traditional red. Your florist will have many additional suggestions for beautiful Christmas decorations that use flowers and fragrant greens. If you've got a particular spot in your home that you would like to showcase, bring a picture of it with you to the florists and ask for their suggestions. You might also find it helpful to measure the space to ensure the arrangement you choose will fit properly. Keep in mind that your florist will be very busy during the holiday season, so you may want to place your order a few weeks in advance of your holiday event. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Wesley Berry is member of the American Academy of Floriculture (AAF) and President of Wesley Berry Flowers (http://www.wesleyberryflowers.com), a successful multi-million dollar floral business that was established in 1946.
