The Pine Tree State 

Maine has earned the nickname of the pine tree state not surprisingly due to its many pine trees. The state flower is not a flower at all, but is the white pine cone and tassel, which is more like the seed of the pine tree. This symbol can be found on Maine’s flag.

Maine’s landscape has always been the standout feature of the state, drawing artists and tourists, and making others permanent residents. That is one of the reasons why Acadia National Park is frequently in the top 10 most visited of the United States’ national parks. And there is no shortage of space for nature enthusiasts; Maine contains 542,629 acres of state and national parks according to 50States.com.

Specifically, Cadillac Mountain is a popular destination as it is the highest point on the North Atlantic seaboard and the first place the sun rises each day in the United States. To capture Maine’s nickname in a floral gift, consider: 

Pine Roping. As its name suggests, pine boughs are attached together to form long ropes that can be strung about porches or windows during the holidays. Pine’s tarry needles are able to maintain some of their moisture despite the elements, making them a lasting decoration for the season. Attach a few pinecones to the roping for an extra rustic touch. 

Cemetery Adornments. Because pine and other fresh cut evergreens are more able to withstand the snow and cold of northeastern winters, they are prime candidates for seasonal cemetery adornments. Loved ones often place wreaths or grave blankets on the plots of those who have passed to bring a touch of color and serve as a memorial.

Bar Harbor, Maine 

Adjacent to Acadia is the town of Bar Harbor, known for its centuries-old lobster industry. As far back as the 1800s, tourists have spent summers here. Some prominent Americans, such as the Pulitzers, Vanderbilts, Rockefellers, Morgans, Astors, and Fords even built lavish “summer cottages” on Mount Desert Island, which holds Bar Harbor. In contrast to the serene nature in other parts of the state, Bar Harbor is known as the shopping, dining, and nightlife headquarters of the area.  To send an arrangement reminiscent of Bar Harbor, choose: 

Lobster Red. Maine is well known for its lobsters. Choose red flowers to symbolize the crustacean such as gerber daisies, alstroemeria, roses, hypericum berries, and carnations. 

Ocean Blue. Bar Harbor is a working harbor on the ocean, so channel the ocean blue with varieties such as delphinium, iris, thistle, or hydrangea.

Whether you prefer the peace and quiet of an early sunrise on Cadillac Mountain or the excitement of Bar Harbor’s streets, Kremp Florist can assist you in selecting a spectacular flower arrangement for any occasion. Contact the florist for more information about your Maine flower delivery.
