Halloween Fun at Your Local Flower Shop
Copyright © 2006-2009 Wesley Berry, AAF
Halloween is just around the corner and you're thinking gruesome costumes, haunted houses, ghosts, black cats, witches, bats, and...flowers! What's that you say? You're NOT thinking about flowers for Halloween? Your florist is and you should be, too!
While it may not seem that flowers and Halloween exactly go petal in...uh...claw, there really are so many ways flowers can be used as part of your Halloween celebration, and even if you don't see it yet, many florists do. So just what are florists doing for Halloween? Well, according to a 2005 survey of florists conducted by the Society of American Florists (SAF), some florists are beginning to do quite a bit!
When asked how they're promoting flowers for the holiday, 78 percent of florists indicated they're decorating their windows and setting up Halloween-themed window displays and 75 percent are setting up indoor displays. Many are also sending promotional mailings (47 percent) or hanging signs outside their shops (41 percent). So, it's pretty likely that when you visit your florist this Halloween, you'll be able to view some really great ideas that are sure to give you chills-the good kind! And, while you're checking out the displays, be sure to ask your florist if he or she is offering any Halloween specials, because the survey showed that 37 percent of florists do!
Among the items that might be on special for Halloween are sure to be last years big sellers. Florists indicated that the best seller in the Halloween season was, of course, fresh flowers with 58 percent of respondents stating it was their top item. 23 percent sold mostly non-floral giftware, and 14 percent sold outdoor bedding and garden plants (the fall is a great time to think about planting hardy mums!).
But, the best sellers aren't the only items that will be available through your florist. The survey showed that some florists also offered costume items, indoor and outdoor decorations, candles, crafts, candy, pumpkins, balloons, gourds, party goods, cards, and stickers.
If the great Halloween items available from your florist aren't enough to lure you in, some florists also get into the "spirit" of things with special in-store events, like open houses, contests, and costumed employees. Although the fun of Halloween might last for just one day, don't worry about having to squeeze a stop at the flower shop into just a few hours. 93 percent of florists are open regular business hours on Halloween!
Yellow Mums Are In Fashion For The Fall
Copyright © 2006-2009 Wesley Berry, AAF
Each year in the fall people trade in their bright summer flowers for warmly colored fall plants and flowers. Year after year, the most popular fall flower choice is the chrysanthemum, or mum for short. In 2005, yellow was the color of fashion for the potted mum.
According to statistics released by the Society of American Florists (SAF), yellow mums were the most popular of all the color choices available for mums. Of all the mums sold last year, 26 percent of them were yellow. Other colors included:
Purple/Violet - 22 percent.
Bronze/Rust - 12 percent.
Mixed Colors - 12 percent.
White - 10 percent.
Red/Crimson - 8 percent.
Pink - 5 percent.
Orange - 3 percent.
Other - 2 percent.
Most people purchase new mums every year because of space constraints in their flowerbeds. But, if you have the space, it is possible to over-winter them for use the next year. Since mums are a hardy plant, they'll fare well even if you need to move them to another location in the spring to make room for your summer blooms. Just be sure to move them to a sunny location, like the end of your vegetable garden.
To over-winter your mums, take off all the faded blooms, but do not trim the stems. Even if you don't plan to leave the mums where they are during the spring and summer months, don't move them once they've passed their peak. Doing so leaves them especially vulnerable to heaving as the ground freezes, which exposes the roots to the cold and will kill the plant. Instead, leave them where they are and place some straw, pine boughs, or light mulch around them to help protect the roots during the cold winter months.
In the spring when the plants begin to grow again, remove any dead foliage from the plants and move the straw (or other material) out of the way very carefully. Dig up the plants and move them to their summer location. The summer location should have soil that is of good quality and that drains well. Once you've replanted the mums, give them a bit of fertilizer to help the roots grow. In the fall, you can dig them up and move them back to their former location.
Mums help to add a lovely bit of fall fashion and curbside appeal to our homes during the fall month. And, since they're an easy plant to grow, there's no reason you can't keep your mum plants growing strong year after year.

I think every man should have your web address in some kind of dating kit. Along with mints, a rhyming dictionary, chocolate in some form, and something that will staple your mouth shut. That should do it for anyone trying to maintain a relationship with, well, me.( Ellie C., Lake Jackson TX

No one ever listens to me. I tell them to order from you guys, but do they listen? They do not. I order flowers and gifts from you guys all the time, and I’ve never had occasion to be dissatisfied. By contrast, those people who don’t listen to me seem like they’re constantly complaining about how this delivery or that had some problem with it (wrong color, wrong flowers, bad quality, etc.). I have no such problems. I wish I were better PR for you guys, but no one ever listens to me.( Joanne W.

I'm not the best gift-giver in the world. I usually have no idea what to send anyone for anything. Now I send flowers from you at every occasion, and it seems like they are appropriate for everything. I still don't believe how much people gush over what they get from me, but there you go.( Juanita P.

I almost stopped short of ordering any of the brightly colored funeral sprays for my mother’s funeral. She was fond of all sorts of bright colors, but I didn’t know if they would be right at a funeral. They just looked so lovely on your website that it made me think of her just to look at them. I ended up being very happy with my choice.( Nora A.

I’m such a dope. I must be the last woman on earth to forget an anniversary. I didn’t really consider flowers as a gift for my husband, and it was so last-minute. You people really came through for me. And... SHOCK!!! My husband really liked the flowers!( Juanita H.

I just wanted to say thanks for your excellent service. You probably get a lot of husbands like me who have no idea what to get their wives for their anniversary, and flowers seems like such a fall-back position. But she was really impressed with the flowers she got - it wasn’t just a polite thank you, if you know what I mean.( Jared O., Denton TX

I was in the USA recently, and I discovered the tradition of Thanksgiving. It's such a wonderful time to take the summer and autumn harvest and put it to good use for family that visits. I was interested to see how my American friends celebrated, and from what I understand, there is a turkey and potatoes and that's about what the similarities are between families. I like the idea of having a major holiday before Christmas that kind of celebrates autumn and all its colors. I was also impressed with the flowers. I understand that not everyone includes flowers as part of the holiday, but if my friends are any indication, everyone should have flowers. I would like to start a Thanksgiving celebration in my country, and I can start with turkey, potatoes, and autumn flowers.( Irina K.
