Rose
The rose is the national flower of the United States. It is often used to celebrate Independence Day, and you can find roses in a variety of colors and sizes at your local florist or grocery store. Roses come in many shapes and sizes, too! If you are looking for a patriotic way to show someone how much you care about them this holiday weekend, consider giving them some roses from our local flower shop on Saturday morning–and do not forget: red means love!
No matter what color of rose you choose, giving someone flowers is a great way to show them that you care. And while they may not be the most practical gift (after all, they do not last very long), they are still one of the most thoughtful ones around!

Sunflower
Sunflowers are a good choice for any celebration, occasion or holiday including the 4th of July! They are also a great way to send your love on Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day!
Cosmos
Cosmos are great for bouquets because they’re so easy to grow and they make a great cut flower. They are also bright, cheerful, and easy to find at your local garden center. Cosmos will last for several days if you keep them in water or if you put them in a vase with fresh water every day. If you want to keep your flowers for longer, try putting them in water with a few drops of bleach. This will kill any bacteria that might cause the flowers to wilt. If you do not have access to a garden center, try growing cosmos outdoors. They are easy to grow and will thrive in your garden if you give them full sun and well-drained soil.
Butterfly Bush
Butterfly Bush is a perennial plant that grows to be about 3-5 feet tall. It has fragrant yellow flowers that attract butterflies, bees and hummingbirds. It is a member of the rose family and hardy in zones 4-8. The butterfly bush is a popular ornamental plant because it attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. It is also drought tolerant, making it a good choice for xeriscaping. Butterfly bushes are hardy in most soils, except those that are very wet or very dry. They are drought tolerant and will thrive even when neglected.
Poinsettia
The poinsettia is a popular holiday plant, but it is not native to the United States. It is actually a tropical shrub that grows in Mexico and Central America. The name comes from Joel Roberts Poinsett, who brought the plant back to America in 1828 after traveling through Mexico as Secretary of War under President Andrew Jackson. The plant is also known as the Christmas Star, and it is a symbol of the Virgin Mary. The flower has five red-and-white petals that represent both her Immaculate Conception (the purity of Jesus’ mother) and her Five Joys (the five events from the life of Jesus). The plant is poisonous, but it is not deadly. The leaves and stem are more toxic than the red bracts, so it is best to keep them away from pets and children.
Gerbera Daisy
The Gerbera Daisy is a bright and cheerful flower that makes for great 4th of July decorations. It is also a favorite for sending to friends and family to celebrate the holiday. If you want to send your loved ones flowers this year, consider getting them the gift of Gerberas! Gerbera Daisies are easy-to-grow plants that come in many colors, so you can choose what looks best with your decorating scheme. They are also quite hardy so they can survive being shipped across town or across country if need be! Gerbera Daisies are also a great choice for those who have little experience with gardening. They are easy to care for and can even be grown indoors!

These flower varieties are sure to bring the smiles for your 4th of July celebration. The Fourth of July is a time for celebration and family.

Whether you are sending something across town or across the country, there are plenty of options available at our website. Here are some suggestions:
- Red, white and blue flowers are always a good choice for Independence Day. You can not go wrong with roses or carnations in these colors.

The History Behind Independence Day or 4th of July
Independence Day was first celebrated in 1777 when the Continental Congress declared that America was no longer part of Great Britain. On September 17th, 1787, Congress adopted a resolution calling on the states to celebrate July 1st as “the anniversary of American Independence.”
On June 21st, 1815, John Adams wrote a letter to his wife Abigail describing how he felt about this new holiday: “The Fourth comes this year upon us so coldly and unattended by any public demonstration.” He also stated, “I hope we shall keep it as a day of fasting for all nations!”
In 1861 President Abraham Lincoln issued a proclamation urging Americans to celebrate Independence Day on July 4th instead of June 21st. This was done so that Americans could honor all soldiers who died during the Civil War (1861-1865).
