October Flowers

As a Libra, October is my favorite month! It's also one of my favorite months for locally grown flowers. The colors and textures are so rich and there is so much to choose from...and of course...THE DAHLIAS!

Rosemary is a great herb for bouquets and boutonierres because it doesn't wilt. It also smells amazing!

Salvia is a great option if you're looking for purple flowers in October. They feel so velvety!

Zinnias are the perfect Summer flower. Luckily, they are still super plentiful into October. They come is just about every color imaginable. While they are super popular farmer's market flowers, they look great in formal arrangements too!

There are lots of varieties of hydrangeas. In October, Hydrangeas have transitioned to green or greenish pink. Sometimes you can stil find a few ivory colored ones as well.

There are two types of celosia. This is the crested type. It's also known as "brain celosia". It has a velvety texture and comes in beautiful earthy jewel tones.

This orange asclepias is one of my fave Fall flowers. (i love orange!) It has short stems (10 inches or so) but it is so beautiful as an accent in bouquets and centerpieces.

Green hanging amaranth is also called Emerald Tassle. It's great for creating a trailing effect. There is also a burgandy/red variety called "love lies bleeding"! Not a great name for a wedding flower-but still very pretty!

Dahlias are the stars of October. No other cut flower can come close to the beauty of the dahlia in the Fall. Dahlias come in a huge variety of colors, sizes and shapes. They are super versatile and look great in bouquets and arrangements.
