“I know a bank where the wild thyme blows/Where oxlips and the nodding violet grow/Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine/With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine.”
Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream makes much of the season's flowers (see above), and it's not hard to understand why. Summer brings so many blossoms to the peak of loveliness, and it does the same for our vegetable gardens and our fruits. This makes it the perfect time to host a dinner party or any such gathering that takes its inspiration from June's easy elegance, it's sense of romance and sensuality. We here at Neubauer's Flowers aren't talking a backyard BBQ (though those are great); no, we mean a casually sophisticated event that is lit by candlelight or moonlight. Where the table is laden with platters of salmon, dishes of ceviche, cups of sorbet. Where the bright flavors of summer are captured in food and in flowers.

This Earth Day (April 22), remember to stop and smell the flowers. We here at Neubauer's Flowers know it's usually a cliche, but in this case, it's more important than ever to appreciate the natural resources and riches our planet offers us, especially in the form of flowers and plants. There are many ways to honor the Earth, including everything from recycling drives, clean-ups, environmental fairs and other events. But we also think it's a time to embrace nature and to grow something green. Earth Day reminds us to nurture and preserve our environment. Flowers and plants give us the chance to do that in our own small patch of the world. Read More about Take Stock Of The Planet’s Riches On Earth Day »
