The Fourth of July has very recognizable colors, and you will want your bouquet to reflect that. However, depending on the event, a bouquet of red, white, and blue Roses may not be what you have in mind. There are many stunning varieties of flowers in these colors.

White Flowers

White Roses are a given, but other options abound. White Lilies, Orchids, or Peonies offer a touch of elegance; Daisies lend sunshine to any family cookout. You can also skip the white flowers and add a delicate sprinkling of Baby’s Breath to your bouquet.

Red Flowers

Carnations, Roses, Peonies, and Tulips are all beautiful flowers which come in vivid shades of red. You will want a balanced bouquet, so adding the right amount of each is essential.

Blue Flowers

Blue Delphinium is a lovely and unique choice for your patriotic bouquet. Other flowers which come naturally in blue are Carnations, Wisteria, and Hydrangea.

If you are having a family or outdoor event, classic flower-like Roses, Daisies, Carnations, and Tulips would set the mood; if your event or party is indoor or more elegant, try red and white Peonies with blue Delphinium. You may also like the idea of celebrating American independence by choosing a floral arrangement comprised only of wildflowers which grew in colonial America. Speak with our florist to talk about the possibilities and how we can help you choose the perfect arrangement.

You may also wish to skip the bouquets and go for a centerpiece. A centerpiece is an elegant way to get your table party-ready and looking beautiful. Compliment with long-stemmed, tapered candles for a simple yet perfectly beautiful table ready for your family and friends.

If you have too much to do in preparation for your event, skip the trip to the flower shop. Fiesta Flowers offers flower delivery to ensure that your Fourth of July is stress-free.

Happy July Fourth!
