Los Angeles
This “City of Angeles” is known for many reasons, including its world-famous film industry and the many celebrities who reside within its borders. According to SoftSchools.com, filmmakers flocked to Los Angeles in the early 1900s to get far away from New Jersey, where Thomas Edison held patents on filmmaking equipment. This helped the directors avoid legal issues, and gave rise to the area known as “Hollywood” which became part of Los Angeles in 1910. To send an arrangement reminiscent of this film-hub consider:
Tinsel. Hollywood is also known as “Tinseltown.” During the holiday season, shiny metallic tinsel and can be incorporated into floral gifts such as boxwood Christmas trees. These miniature ‘trees’ are in fact fresh cut greenery, so they require daily watering but will eventually fade with the passing of the season. They make a great accent to a holiday display, or can serve as a Christmas tree for those without the space for a tall timber.
Camera Ready Flowers. Flowers on movie sets need to be chosen carefully for their durability during the filming process. For an arrangement that will stay camera ready for days, ask for long lasting flowers such as alstroemeria, carnations, and daisy pom pons. While some consider these flowers common, they are sure to last longer than more delicate varieties such as ranunculus.
Wine Country
To Los Angeles’ north lies California’s Wine Country. Grapes for winemaking have been grown in California for many years, but it wasn’t until 1976, that the Napa Valley region became world famous after its Chardonnay from Calistoga beat the more prestigious French counterparts in a blind taste-test in Paris. The Napa Valley along with the Sonoma Valley are just a few areas of California rich with wineries for tourists to peruse. To send a wine-inspired bouquet, you may include:
Red, White, and Rosé. These colors refer to the wine’s hue, which usually comes across as a deep burgundy, cream, and pink respectively to the viewer. These colors have become quite popular in floral design. In fact Marsala was Pantone’s color of the year in 2015. Paired with dark, leafy greenery, these colors will instantly remind the recipient of her favorite vintage. For burgundy flowers consider dahlias, roses, and calla lilies. For cream blooms, choose stock, hydrangea, and spray roses. And for a rosé look there are garden roses, tulips, and alstroemeria.
