Liatris:
Common Names: Liatris, Spike Gayfeather
Description: Unlike other flowers, liatris flowers open and mature from the top of the stem downward. Clustered along the spike, they have a feathery look. Various shades of deep lavender are most common; other colors are bluish shades, violet and white.

Statice:
Common Names: Statice, Limonium, English Statice, German Statice, Seafoam Statice, Latifolia
Description: These cut flowers are available in several varieties. English statice carries 1- to 2-inch clusters of calyxes, each about 1/2 inch across. Stems are 1 to 1 1/2 feet long. Seafoam statices have smaller calyxes, arched clusters, smooth stems and no foliage. German statices have small gray bracts that arch backward. English statice calyxes are yellow, white, purple, lavender or pink with tiny white or yellow flowers inside. Latifolia calyxes are white with blue-violet flowers.


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.
Floral designers are very creative individuals.  Rather than specifying the precise location of every flower in the arrangement, tell them the overall "look" you want (e.g., round arrangement, loose flowers in a vase, etc.) and let them use their creativity to do something spectacular for you!
