Dad. Coach. Mentor. Grandpa. Whoever your father figure is, let them know how much they’re loved with thoughtful floral celebrations this Father’s Day. A fresh bouquet or bold plant is more than a gift, it’s a heartfelt “thank you” wrapped in color and care.

August is Romance Month

This month, love lingers like the scent of summer blooms in the breeze. Romance Month reminds us that the sweet, romantic moments continue all year round. Handwritten notes shared poolside, sunny strolls filled with the sweet scent of ice cream, and all the flowers your arms can carry are just a few ways to keep the romance alive.

Pet-Friendly Flowers & Plants

Every day is a chance to spoil our favorite lovable, cuddly, playful fur babies, but on August 26th, it’s time to put the doggos front and center since it’s National Dog Day! Bringing home cheerful blooms is a great idea, but always make sure they’re pet-friendly.

Flowers “Just Because”

Flowers don’t need a reason to bloom, and neither do you. On Just Because Day, August 27th, send some cheer in flower form and turn an ordinary day into a favorite memory.

Summer is for living, giving, and decorating with intention, and flowers cover it all. Brighten a room, lift a mood, or make someone’s day with fresh seasonal blooms from Schaaf Floral, styled for the season. Let the petals do the talking.
