Fall Floral Trends

Fall officially arrived on September 22nd, but our amazing floral design team has been working for many weeks to put together a new fall collection that reflects the current fall floral trends. New Fall Colors When it comes to fall, we all think of hues like burnt orange, burgundy, yellow, and brown. These are wonderfully warm and rich ways to honor autumn. However, a recent fall floral trend has been to mix the colors up with pinks and purples. This offers a bright and cheerful blend and new visual experience for fall centerpieces, bouquets, and flower arrangements. Botanical Fall Floral Design The botanical floral design continues to be popular into the fall season. This floral design emphasizes greenery and unique green accents like kale, artichokes, and more. Our Woodland Splendor is a good example of this lush floral design. Rustic Fall Motifs Of course we still have all those favorite fall accents and symbols like pumpkins along with rustic styles that incorporate burlap, wood boxes, and more. We also offer numerous cornucopias that serve as centerpieces or fall decor for your home. These are available in different floral styles and color combinations. Fall Plants and Gift Crates We also offer seasonal plants -- some offered in unique ceramic pumpkin containers -- and garden arrangements plus have added some great fall gift crates along with Halloween-themed gifts. Order Today! Visit our San Diego flower shops to order fall flowers, plants, and gifts. Or, you can call us or use our website order form. Pickup your orders here at our San Diego florist locations or ask for contactless delivery.
