Express your gratitude this Memorial Day 2022 on Monday May 30th with patriotic Memorial Day Flowers from Allen’s Flowers. This appreciative and patriotic day of respect was officially designated as a federal holiday in 1971. It was in earlier years, referred to as Decoration Day and started post the Civil War. People held many tributes to the unfortunate thousands of fallen American Soldiers that died in the Civil War. The tradition was to decorate graves with Memorial Day Flowers while also reciting prayers.

Now, in addition to visiting memorials, people attend or participate in parades and have family gatherings. There are many ways to reflect on our fallen heroes, including ceremonies, celebrations, and festive occasions that focus on patriotism and how much we value the freedom that we hold dear. These selfless warriors fought for us and now we must remember and honor them.

Memorial Day celebrations and remembrances often feature beautiful and patriotic flowers. They are a great way to reflect the beauty and love represented in remembering these heroes, many of which were our loved ones. The skilled floral designers at Allen’s Flowers will eagerly assist you with select a caring, thoughtful and patriot flower arrangement or green plant to honor a special military hero and members of his or her family.
