Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made, and forgot to put a soul into. ~ Henry Beecher
Each flower is a soul opening out to nature. ~ Gerald De Nerval
God gave us our memories so that we might have roses in December. ~ James Matthew Barrie
Orchid:
Common Names: Orchid, Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Oncidium, Cattleya, Phalaenopsis
Description: Throughout the world, more than 17,000 species are known, and varieties vary in size and shape. Oncidium blossoms are 1 1/2 to 1 inch and are usually yellow with orange-red markings. Cattleya blossoms are large, ruffled and usually 5 to 6 inches across in white or purple with contrasting throats. Phalaenopsis have moth- or butterfly-shaped flowers in colors such as white, pink, purple and bicolors. Cymbidium and dendrobium flowers have a butterfly-like shape and are 3 to 4 inches acress. The larger of the two, cymbidiums are white, yellow, green or lavender with pink or red lips, while dendrobiums are often white or lavender.
Aster:
Common Names: Aster, Monte Casino, Rainbow Aster, Spray Aster.
Description: Asters are dainty, daisy-like flowers with yellow centers distributed over airy sprays. They come in a rainbow of colors including white, pink, hot pink, lavender, red, purple and white. Vase life ranges from five to 14 days.
Ordering Advice:
While some florists will take an order to be delivered in the A.M. or P.M., it is usually impossible to have it delivered at a particular time of the day (i.e., 2:00 P.M.). Because of traffic, pending funerals, weather and many other things, it very difficult to predict where the delivery van will be from one minute to the next. If the delivery is for someone at a place of employment, give the florist the time the person will be there at work.
The best advice to remember is to keep the order as general and open as possible. Because flowers are usually better in some seasons and not others, it is wise to allow the florist to pick the types of flowers used so they can give you the best quality. Some flowers, such as roses, carnations and chrysanthemums, are available all year.
