Mayfield’s Hot Summer Floral Trends
Summer is here, and with it our summer floral trends that reflect the current preferences for certain flowers, colors, and styles. To offer everyone these latest trends, we've updated our summer flower collection. Here are some of the floral trends to watch for this summer. Sunflowers Oh how we love sunflowers at our Tucson flower shop! They are a store and customer favorite, and we are so glad to have them back to use in flower designs for the season. You can also opt to get an arrangement of just sunflowers as they brighten a room all on their own. A Touch of Whimsy It's important to smile and laugh, so many of our floral designs are intended to do just that. From a pitcher full of cut lemons and bright yellow flowers to bouquets wrapped with a polka-dot ribbon, the trend is toward the whimsical and fun. We want to keep it as light-hearted as possible. Rustic With a little touch of country, combined with casual elegance, this year's summer trend is toward rustic baskets filled with wildflowers and loosely arranged flowers. Think of it as that "just picked from the field" design. Other rustic style floral designs can be arranged in wooden or bamboo boxes. Bright and Bold With all the seeming doom and gloom around us, it's important to focus on the positive. And, what better way to do so than with colorful and brightly hued summer flowers? The trend is toward mixing many bright colors together for a rainbow effect or even a pave style of color flower arrangement. Place Your Summer Flower Order! We continue to take flower orders by phone and through our online ordering system found on our website. You can opt for curbside pick up or contactless delivery in the local Tucson only.

Sympathy Flowers Provide Comfort and Hope in a Time of Loss
The loss of a loved one is never easy. Grief stays with us for a long time. However, in the recent past, we could get together at a funeral and memorial service to comfort each other in-person. In the near future, we may be able to do this again, but during COVID-19, it hasn't been possible. We have had to grieve from afar and support each other through virtual memorials, calls, and messages of hope. Many have also contributed to special charities and campaigns in the name of the lost loved one to also show support. Even going to a cemetery has been prohibited, leaving many to feel lost without a place to go show their grief or visit a lost loved one. Through all situations, one gift has always provided comfort and hope without the need to find the right words. And, that gift has been flowers. Their beauty, color, and appearance say it all with love and support for the recipient. They offer cheerful messages and brighten the gloomiest of days. Our sympathy flower collection gives you many ways to show your love and support during these difficult times. We have flower arrangements, baskets, and bouquets as well as blooming plants like orchids to send safely to your Tucson-area recipient through no-contact delivery. Our sympathy flowers come in all sizes, colors, shapes, and themes. From religious sympathy baskets to patriotic flowers for Memorial Day, we can help you show your love and support. Call us if you would like to create a custom sympathy flower arrangement that sends a more personalized message of sympathy.

How to Care For Orchid Plants
Orchids are a stunning tropical blooming plant that can live a long life in your home or office. They regularly bloom with just minimal care. Here are some tips on how to take care of orchids and recommendations on the best place to keep them when displaying them indoors. Main Care Requirements for Orchids There are some basic orchid care tips. First, most orchids only require water once a week. Don't over water because this can cause root rot. Second, put your orchid in a bright windowsill, facing east or west. Third, orchids do well when fed weekly with an orchid fertilizer. Finally, it's best to repot the orchid once it stops blooming. Now, let's look at some more detailed tips on orchid care. Orchids are Diverse and Have Unique Care Needs It may be difficult to believe, but the orchid family has over 880 different types and more than 22,000 species. These tropical plants are known as "air plants" because they hang on to trees for support while others are "rock plants" and grow on or among rocks. Still other orchids are terrestrials and grow on the jungle floor. With so many home environments, it's easy to see why orchids also require diverse care. However, all orchids require the right light, food, humidity, water, air movement and temperature to thrive. Orchid Containers Orchids do not grow in pots in the wild so it makes sense to think a lot about how putting them in containers may impact their comfort. Make sure to use a pot that can provide room for the roots to breath and move as well as provides an ample environment for moisture. Good options include plastic pots and ceramic pots. Making an Orchid Feel at Home Since orchids like humid environments due to their origins in the tropics, consider using a humidity tray to recreate that environment for the orchid. This also can help improve air flow. The temperature an orchid requires also depends on the type of orchid. Phalaenopsis orchids thrive in a daytime temperature anywhere in the mid seventies to mid eighties while dendrobiums like their temperature to be around 10 degrees cooler. Order Today! Call us to order your very own orchid plant or send one as a special gift. We offer no-contact delivery and curbside pickup at our Tucson flower shop.
