Bagoy's Florist & Home really can't overstate the significance of bees. 1/3 of the food we consume is dependent on pollination, a process that relies mostly on bees. Of the top 100 foods we consume, bees pollinate 70. We're talking everything from avocados and apples to coffee and carrots. This is why maintaining bee colonies, contained in hives or "hotels," is crucial. Just as beneficial? Keeping a bee-friendly garden. Read More about 🌻 Sunflowers: Popular With Us, Popular With Bees »

So you've brought home a beautiful design from Bagoy's Florist & Home or received one. What now?
It may seem like a simple decision---where to put those flowers---but it's also easy to get stymied about where your flowers will be shown off and enjoyed to best advantage. There are certain florals and greens that do well in certain spaces in your home and others that can live anywhere. A few rules apply: nothing too fragrant on the dining table, for example. Something Zen-like and humidity-hardy in the bathroom, for another. Today we take one of our summer designs and tell you exactly where you can give it a home in yours.

Bagoy's Florist & Home spends the 4th of July like many of you do---relaxing and enjoying the long summer day. We love to be outside camping or at the lake, firing up the grill later for some good old American BBQ. We too look forward to the fireworks show and the chance to commune with family and friends, whether we're in a backyard, on a boat or gathering around the table. If you've been invited to spend Independence Day at someone else's home this year, bring a proper hostess gift along with that six pack and extra hot dog buns.

Bagoy's Florist & Home is here to help you pair your culinary creations with a floral centerpiece that is just as enchanting.

Is there any transition more glorious than the one from spring to summer? We here at Bagoy's Florist & Home think not.
It's our pleasure to entice you with an early look at summer's floral bounty, featuring many of the flowers we fall in love with in spring. For sure, the two seasons share a lot of flowers in common (think hydrangea, iris and tulips), but in summer, we tend to see more assertive, richly-colored blossoms. There are those hammy showstoppers, sunflowers, and then there are those flowers that seem overdressed for the occasion (we're looking at you, zinnias). We have towering snapdragons, delicate garden roses and pretty petunias. Summer's a showcase for gorgeous flowers. In honor of our trees starting to show green here in Anchorage, we're giving you a glimpse of what's to come. Read More about Summer’s Coming, Go Outside! »
