Any time is a good time to give flowers. But, if you’re looking for a specific reason to gift them during June, we have some ideas for you. For all of the occasions listed below, you can pick up whatever kind of blooms appeal to you (and you think will appeal to your recipient) at your local farmers market. You can also cut some from your garden, or order them online and have them shipped to someone special. It doesn’t matter what type of flowers you give or where you buy them, as long as you’re gifting from your heart.
National Rose Month
June is National Rose Month, which means it’s a perfect month to pluck roses from your backyard or purchase a stunning mixed bouquet from a nearby florist. Roses are ideal for giving to anyone. Surprise your mother, father, daughter, son, friend, sister, or even coworker with roses in shades of red, white, pink, yellow, orange, purple, or green.
Father’s Day
Father’s Day is in June, and we think fathers would absolutely love a gift of flowers. Think about what type of man you’re giving to – and what his personality is like – and then consider bold blooms, something soft, or a variety that’s completely unique. There are many woody flowers that can be special for Father’s Day and there are plenty of live plants that flower beautifully. Think about pairing a gift with your flowers like a necktie, bottle of natural cologne, or bar of dark chocolate.
Graduation
The kids (or the adults) who are graduating this month would surely love something sentimental like flowers to make their day. For graduation, we love giving carnations, orchids, daisies, sunflowers, roses, and tulips. Consider buying flowers in colors that match your graduate’s school colors. Gift them in a loose bouquet, in a unique vase, or in plant form.
These are just a few of the reasons to give flowers during June. You can, of course, buy flowers for someone’s birthday, simply to say “I love you,” or for any other time that you’re thinking about another.
