To many, Sunflowers mean cheer and friendship. They are bright like the sun and are known as the adoration flower that brings happiness wherever they go.

Sunflowers last a long time, they are cheery and typically a big flower, that makes a bold statement. Easy to enjoy, they look great alone or in a full arrangement. Sunflowers are just one of those flowers everyone seems to adore.

Yes, sunflowers are hearty blooms. With a big, thick stem, they can draw water to the flower head with ease. Even as petals perish, the blooms character continues to shine. Many floral designers feature decomposed sunflowers in their arrangements as the center of the bloom presents such beauty and texture on its own.

There are many varieties and color tones of sunflowers. A fall favorite is the burgundy toned sunflowers, where the bold yellow are the year round favorites.

At Bagoy’s, we like to feature sunflowers with blue iris as it represents our great state of Alaska colors. Other bold, summery colors and flowers work exceptionally well with sunflowers too.
