The language of flowers 1



Welcome to our first blog. We want to be your fresh cut flowers information source.
Flowers have a language all their own. Years ago we had a saying in the florist business. “Flowers say it”.
Over the next few weeks our blog will be about the language of flowers. When you do not have the words, let your flowers say it. No other gift speaks quite like flowers. I believe the question we are asked the most is, “What does the color of the rose mean.” Most everyone knows that red is love. Did you know red can also mean respect? I have listed the meaning of the most popular colors below.

Red rose: love, respect
Yellow rose: joy, friendship
Coral rose: desire
Pale peach rose: modesty
Lavender rose: enchantment
Dark pink rose: thankfulnessWhite rose: innocence, secrecy
Pale pink rose: grace, joy
Orange rose: fascination

We are a full service florist and deliver daily to all of Tallahassee. Our value priced roses are $29.95 a dozen. We have a cash and carry special of a dozen wrapped in paper for $12.95.

Locally Grown; Our Flower Farm | Farm to Florist | Tallahassee, Florida

We haven't really shared much about our cut flower farm but it is time for that to change! We are honored to be able to provide our customers with many locally grown flowers! The  owner of  A  Country  Rose ,   Annette started farming on an acre at her home in Wakulla County about eight years ago. She has since moved herself and her farm to a new location with more space for growth (pun intended). Annette  and her husband Ed are the ones who make all the magic  happen.  The most current tasks around  the  farm as of the last  couple  of weeks is a reworking of all the beds. They've been pulling up all the irrigation, laying new rows which includes 100's of tractor loads of compost and mulch then re-laying of black ground cover (to keep weeds at bay), white ground cover (to keep the black from burning the flowers) and then replacement of the irrigation.  It's a lot of work but the  results will be amazing and below is a sneak peek of what we are  harvesting  right now.
