Flower Trends for 2013

The flower choices for 2013 are still the classic favorites: roses standard, spray, and garden varieties. Orchids are always popular and the most hardiest.  Peonies and hydrendreas are always popular mostly for their full shape and romantic look.  Hydrangeas are available year round and the miniature green hydrangeas are very hardy.  These flowers cost is pretty reasonable because of the size of each flower.  And although popular, peonies are only available for a very short while and therefore are more costly.  For 2013, we are seeing a comeback in baby's breath and carnations.  Look for them to be used in a compact style. 

Flower Trends for 2013 was written by guest blogger, Judi Tsuchida owner of Fena Flowers.  All photos courtsey of Fena Flowers Blog & Amy Sopier Photography.
