If you are a traditionalist that loves to stick to classic rules, Adrian Durban Florist suggests incorporating an all-white bouquet in your decorating scheme as a final farewell to all things summer.

As the warm summer days melt into August, you may have noticed a larger variety of bees and other insects in your garden or neighborhood. This isn’t a bad thing- in fact, bees are completely necessary to our ecosystem. Their pollinating activity accounts for 90% of the world’s food sources. However, they are starting to become an endangered species, in part due to climate change and habitat loss, but especially due to the overuse of pesticides on flowers and crops. Adrian Durban Florist encourages you to limit your use of pesticides in your own garden, and buy farm fresh, local flowers whenever possible. We have some excellent choices to recommend!
