Galentine's Day is coming up fast, and we here at Casas Adobes Flowers want to help you properly celebrate your friendships. This fun occasion was inspired by a 2010 Parks and Recreation episode where the show's main character took all of her ladies out for lunch the day before Valentine's Day to show them how much she cared. She dubbed the day "Galentine's." The idea resonated so much that every year, more and more women decide to celebrate their friendships by getting together with their favorite women and girls.

What's the best thing you can do for someone who is under the weather? Give them flowers.
Sure, we're biased here at Casas Adobes Flower Shop, but the research supports us. A 2008 study by the American Society of Horticultural Science found that hospitalized patients who have flowers or a potted plant in their room are less reliant on pain medication and have lower blood pressure overall. Flowers and plants also oxygenate what's likely an enclosed room, as well as add a dash of nature to an otherwise indoor affair. Read More about Bright Stunners For Better Health »

While we here at Casas Adobes Flower Shop love our traditional floral scheme for the holidays, which includes a great deal of green and red, we also appreciate winter's other palette. Represented by a dizzying variety of blooms, this other color story is inspired by winter's first snowfall, which takes on an iridescent cast under street lamps and twinkle lights. Lavenders, pale pinks and a range of whites come into sharp focus for winter, with blooms that speak to the delicate, tranquil beauty of outdoors. Read More about Decorating With Winter Flowers »

If you're playing Secret Santa at the workplace or with another group this year, you're in for a real treat. This holiday gift swap isn't unique to the U.S., appearing in many forms throughout the West, from Kris Kindle in Ireland to Amigo Secreto in Latin America. It's hard to say where this gift exchange concept came from, but most point to Scandinavia, where people used to knock on doors and dash away before they could be identified, leaving a gift on the lucky recipient's doorstep.
Now, Secret Santa joins a whole host of other present-swapping games intended for groups, and at Casas Adobes Flower Shop, we're in full support of all of them. Read More about Secret Santa Gifts With Spirit »

Thanksgiving is a holiday rich with tradition, and we're here for it. Casas Adobes Flower Shop welcomes all of the fall flowers in their rich, rustic colors, as well as the leaves, berries, twigs and anything else from the forest floor that finds its way to us. We love working with the new textures and looks that the holiday season ushers in. It should come as no surprise to anyone, then, that we're big fans of the Thanksgiving centerpiece.
Floral centerpieces have been around since antiquity, so when you're placing that arrangement at the heart of your table, you're participating in a ritual that's been going since 2,500 BCE. Talk about traditional. Occasionally, the standard floral centerpiece for Thanksgiving can feel a little, well, antique. Which is why we've reworked it.
