LakesideBlooms

I was honored when a special client, Julie, chose Lakeside Blooms to custom design a floral bouquet in memory of a friend of hers -- Leanne Holland Brown, who passed away two years ago. Julie shared some of her favorite memories of Leanne: her smile, her laugh, and her love of smarties! But it is Leanne's guidance, wisdom, empathy and heartfelt words Julie keeps with her. Be truth, Be Love, Be present and Be thankful Leanne Holland Brown Truth White Chrysanthemum rep...resent truth Love- Roses are represent love Present Snapdragon represents strength and mindfulness of being present in the moment Thankful- Carnations are known as a specific bloom for giving thanks for educational leaders Purple/lavender flowers - symbolize admiration Yellow flowers symbolize Friendship The sunflower is known as a happy flower and representing smiles as we remember happy times with those we loved and admired. This was a specially requested bloom for this arrangement, from my biggest fan Thank you Julie, for choosing Lakeside Blooms to be a part of this beautiful gesture and remembrance bouquet. The greatest gift of life is friendship. #floralportrait #torontoflorist #languageofflowers

Silently a flower blooms, In silence it falls away; Yet here now, at this moment, at this place, The world of the flower, the whole of the world is blooming.... This is the talk of the flower, the truth of the blossom: The glory of eternal life is fully shining here. -Zenkei Shibayama . Spring is on my mind.
