We're decking the halls with boughs of holly and it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas over here at Conklyn's Flowers. To prove it, we're excited to unveil our Holiday Gift Guide, a collection of seasonal flowers and plants inspired by the holidays.
Winter's vivid blooms and greens are so much fun to work with, not to mention the other natural accents available to us this time of year. Holiday flowers are all about color and texture, pairing items together to evoke a snowy walk in the woods as well as the pleasures of being inside by the fire, with presents all around.
