Mayfield Florist Mayfield Florist is one of the largest florists in the state of Arizona. We locally source floral products when possible. If we cannot get the flowers, vases or products we need locally, we buy direct from flower farms. Buying direct comes with many great advantages. It ensures that our customers always have a great selection of floral varieties to choose from. We are also able to lower the cost to acquire the products. Much of that cost savings can be passed along to our customers. Buying direct also reduces the time between when flowers are cut at the farms, and when they arrive here at our North Wilmot Road flower shop for use in creating arrangements. Our designers work with the finest, freshest products available. Fresher product translates directly into longer vase life for customers receiving our floral bouquets. We operate a beautiful customer showroom, design and distribution center in the Tucson area.

Apply Blog Discount Coupons to Purchase Holiday Thank You Flowers from Mayfield Florist

Mayfield Florist The wonderful holidays are now over, and the stress of shopping, cooking and traveling is behind us. Occasionally for some, it is challenging to make an adjustment after the holidays because the excitement that made us so ramped up has subsided.  All of the hours of holiday preparation are behind us now so what do we do next? One great idea is to send a special thank you to all of those that made your holiday special. Mayfield Florist has the perfect Thank You Flowers to help you with this! This is the perfect way to tell someone thank you for making your holiday special. Maybe they hosted dinner or simply made your holiday so bright by their actions and good holiday spirit. Our professional floral designers are extremely talented and will prepare a special product that will delight your friend or family member! Thank You Flowers In addition to the pleasure from giving someone Thank You Flowers, here are some other ways to perk yourself up! Just a tip, the best Thank You Flowers are Roses – White, Pink or Yellow. However, Tulips, Daisies, Lilies and Hydrangea are very nice options. Stay busy by scheduling lots of events that you enjoy. By doing this you will be giving yourself something to look forward to.  When you do this your brain's reward system kicks in and you are naturally happier. Do something new that you have not tried before. You can try a new hobby or take a vacation that you have been putting off. These things too will get the dopamine flowing which again creates happiness. Stay in touch with your loved ones you just spent the wonderful holidays with. Often the separation and lack of communication once they return to their homes and lives makes us feel anxiety. Do not let that happen but instead set up appointments so there is a firm commitment that you will be communicating again soon. And yes, again the reward system in the brain engages. Make a traditional handed down recipe different from all of the holiday foods you just enjoyed. Try to use healthy ingredients so that you are also feeling good about your diet. Finally, another great way to put your mind on something new is to volunteer. There are many people that can use help after the holidays. No matter what you decide to volunteer for, as you work to help others you will be making yourself feel a sense of purpose.   Desert Sunset Bouquet Luxurious Upscale Floral Design Roses, Protea, Tulips, Seeded Eucalyptus The award winning floral design team at Mayfield Florist created this luxurious, upscale floral design.

Holly provided protection against witches and its thorns and red berries represented the Crown of Thorns worn by Jesus at the crucifixion. Nativity scenes date back as far as the 10th-century in Rome. Saint Francis of Assisi brought more attention to them, and the tradition quickly spread. There are multiple variations of nativity scenes. Ranging from simple representations of the crib to more elaborate scenes designed to feature the manger and historical buildings in Poland. Some feature hand painted terracotta figurines called Santons. These are from southern France. Christmas decorations are traditionally red, green [...]

"Black Friday", as it is referred to today, has the result of retail stores turning big profits. These profits, in accounting terminology, put the retailers "in the black" instead of losing profits or being "in the red". This day is also closely watched by economists to measure the stimulus it has to the United States economy. Since 2005, Black Friday has arguably been the busiest shopping day of the year. Many big-name retailers for example, Target, Kohl's and Best Buy to name a few, open their doors at midnight.  Retailers now try to spread the shopping out by offering promotions throughout November and December. Total dollars spent on Black Friday shopping fell in 2014 to a mere $50.9 billion. This was the first drop since the recession in 2008 and was attributed to this extension of holiday promotions. Small Business Saturday Small Business Saturday takes place between November 24th and November 30th. This day is one of the busiest shopping periods of the year as consumers flock to their favorite local small business vendors.  First observed in the United States on November 27, 2010, Small Business Saturday is within the same theme as Black Friday and Cyber Monday. These are days when shopping at [...]

Start Several Months in Advance Ordering Wedding Flowers and Hire the Mayfield Florist Wedding Design Experts

Mayfield Florist has been creating gorgeous wedding and event flowers since 1982 Reality is that the pandemic in early 2020 had an impact on many things. This included creating a problem for US Florists in receiving timely and complete flower orders from flower farms. It is now strongly recommended that if you are needing to have Wedding Flowers in the next 6-9 months, you should start wedding planning with a florist as soon as possible.  Mayfield Florist is the premier florist in Tucson AZ specializing in the floral planning of elegant weddings. The flower shortage facing all florists is a combination of several factors. One thing is evident and that is most florists in the US and beyond are feeling the pressure. All are doing their very best to find ways to continue servicing their client base in the best way possible. At Mayfield Florist, we have a professional team of wedding planning experts and designers that create stunning flower bouquets. We would be honored and delighted to get started with you in planning your wedding. Flower Supply Challenges Global Pandemic - We all understand the impact this horrific event had worldwide. This 2020 event snowballed into effecting many different industries including Wholesale Flower Growers. Many had to shut down farms due to quarantine requirements. This in turn resulted in laying off many workers and destroying tons of flowers. Some farms have not reopened and appear to have gone out of business. Breaking it down further to real numbers, the National Association of Wholesale Distributors reported that there were 5.64 million employed in the US floral industry at the end of December 2020. That equates to 247,717 jobs lost between 2019 and 2020. That is the lowest level of floral industry employment in the past seven years. Then furthering the problem was the reduced number of flowers that were grown. Increased Number of Weddings - There is a huge increase in the number of weddings. Many were postponed due to the Pandemic. The U.S. Wedding Report study reported that in 2021 there were an estimated 1.93 million weddings scheduled. That number for 2022 has climbed to 2.47 million. This increase in the demand for wedding flowers coupled with the supply issues is making the problem worse. Mayfield Florist Bridal Bouquets Environmental Changes - Climates in some regions where flowers are grown have changed. In South America, they are reporting colder nights and more rainfall which has negatively affected flower production. Then domestically, many farms are located in California which as we know has been suffering from severe drought conditions. As people have gotten back to normal and begun planning events again, there are now fewer flowers and workers to load trucks. Sadly, many flowers are left to die in the heat because they cannot be loaded onto trucks. Foreign Political Pressures - In many parts of the world there are political unrest matters. This is true in Ecuador which is a major supplier of wholesale flowers. There are many [...]

Shop with Mayfield Florist for National Rose Month

Mayfield Florist has the best red roses in Tucson and was Voted Best Florist in Tucson Arizona Mayfield Florist is the best florist to purchase roses from in the Tucson area. We have roses of all types and colors.  This June is National Rose Month and is the perfect time to shop with Mayfield Florist. Not only do we offer roses, but we also have many other varieties of flowers and plants to choose from. Recently, I was provided with a sensational article regarding roses that was written by the Chairman of the Society of American Florists. There is so much great information in the article, and it is so relevant for National Rose Month that I wanted to share it. Roses are the most popular flower in the world, with over a billion stems sold annually. Over 250 million are produced for Valentine’s Day alone. They are popular because of their beautiful colors, shape and petal structure, as well as their lovely fragrance. While many landscape roses have 5 petals, hybrid tea roses, those produced for commercial cutting, can have up to 40 petals. Best of all, there are always new varieties to discover with over 150 rose species and thousands of fabulous cultivars. June is National Rose Month, a perfect time for me to share with you some of my favorite varieties, not ranked, because they are simply too beautiful to pick a favorite. Alabaster is a breathtaking, off-white rose with many soft, delicate petals. Catalina warms my soul with creamy yellow petals that reveal sunshine as they open. Ashley is a luscious pink rose that is not too pale and not too bold. Juliet captivates me with a very interesting petal structure and perfect peach color. Miyabi Wabara is a pink rose with a peach heart and wonderfully ruffled petals. Free Spirit combines yellow, peach and pink in its countless petals. Just WOW! I am often asked how to care for cut roses and respond with a few tips: Keep the water clean. Bacteria is our primary enemy and you can limit bacterial growth by rinsing the vase daily and refilling with water. Cut stems with a knife or very sharp pruners. Dull scissors will pinch the Xylem and Phloem closed and restrict the uptake of water. Use the flower food provided by your florist. The old wives' tales about aspirin and pennies are lore and not based on any science. The food is most essential during the first two water changes, so do not worry if you run out. If a rose wilts prematurely, do not trash it. Simply give it a fresh cut and submerge the entire rose in warm water for an hour or so. It will rehydrate and look great for many additional days. Fun fact: Most of the world’s cut roses are grown in the mountains of Colombia and Ecuador. The altitude and proximity to the Equator means lots of year-round sunshine and the perfect combination of temperature and humidity. Also, please [...]
