Who says peonies are only around for June? Well, in truth, most florists and gardeners who have any familiarity with peonies will agree. But thanks to the unique climate and growing conditions of Alaska, online flower shoppers now have the option to get peonies clear through to September! At Flower Explosion, we are happy to provide our customers with this solution to the limited season of the peony. Thanks to Alaska peonies, we are able to offer this lush, striking flower well beyond its traditional season.

Peonies are a breathtaking flower at any time of the year. Brides love peonies in their bouquets because, as fresh cut flowers go, peonies are the perfect choice for a do-it-yourself wedding. Their blooms are similar to roses in appearance, but the increased diameter of the bloom sets them apart from roses making them unmatched in their singularity. The deeply lobed, compound leaf patterns in the blooms allow the peony to serve as the sole item necessary for a full bouquet. Fillers, of course, may be added to any peony bouquet or centerpiece, but these full blooms more than do the job all on their own.

The unfortunate news about peonies is that they usually only bloom for 10 days at the end of May and then through the month of June. But with Alaska peonies, the long, cool climate of Alaska allows for a growing season that extends through August and even September, providing peonies for markets such as ours.

So check out our many options and varieties of Alaska Peonies and place your order as soon as possible. You don’t want to miss out on the chance to enjoy this beautiful flower clear into fall! For more information please visit www.flowerexplosion.com.

Flower explosion is your one-stop for all occasions especially this Fourth of July because this online florist proudly presents Independence Day flowers via our tinted roses.

Our Independence Day tinted roses are fresh cut white roses that are tinted with a special process to become a beautiful mix of red, white, and blue. The result is stunning, and we frequently hear from customers about what a hit these roses have been at their Independence Day parties. They claim that guest after guest comment on the roses’ beauty and uniqueness.

Our Independence Day tinted roses come in packages as small as 25 stems to as large as 300 stems, depending on the size of your party or event.

“Don’t you think daisies are the friendliest flower?” So said a stuffy nosed Meg Ryan to a secretly seductive Tom Hanks in that loveliest of romantic comedies, You’ve Got Mail. We, at Flower Explosion would have to agree that daisies are the friendliest of flowers along with other wedding flowers gaining popularity amongst brides.

Daisies, alstroemerias, pompoms… These are but a few of the nontraditional flowers that are becoming more and more trendy for wedding bouquet flowers and wedding flower centerpieces. They not only offer brides a way to stand out as unique, but they are also significantly less expensive than more traditional wedding flowers such as roses or peonies.

Daisies and Pom poms are sweet, friendly, delicate flowers that offer a cheerfulness and soothing atmosphere to any centerpiece. Both flowers come in a wide variety of colors and offer more than one bloom per stem! On the other hand, Alstroemerias are an extremely unique flower that gives off an impression of unique exoticism. We offer these flowers in an abundance of colors on our site, including orange, yellow, pink, and lavender. The different hues of these flowers allow a bride to have wider selection for her desired color scheme.

We offer so many traditional and nontraditional flower packages for weddings, and we can accommodate any large order if we don’t have a package already in place. At Flower Explosion, we are committed to finding the best flower that embodies the essence of your special wedding day. We aim to please brides who prefer the simplicity of Daisies and Pom poms as well as satisfy the ones who prefer the boldness of our breathtaking Alstromerias.

The beauty of this trend of using nontraditional wedding flowers is that a bride can make her personal mark on a wedding, and what bride doesn’t want that?
