They say that diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but in September it is the sapphire which takes center stage! This vividly beautiful gem is the birthstone of the month, and is a unique inspiration for floral designs intended for September birthdays.  If you are looking for a meaningful and striking way to express good wishes to someone you love, you can trust the experts at Zeidler’s Flowers to take the essence of the sapphire and create a birthday bouquet unlike any other.

Did You Know? The sapphire actually occurs naturally in many colors, including green and orange. However, it is the iconic brilliant blue which is the most desired, and therefore the most valuable. This rare shade is also uncommon in flowers, and so blooms representing a sapphire bouquet are truly special.

When creating a bouquet of “sapphire blue”, you can use delphinium (larkspur), blue iris, blue hydrangea, or blue asters. Our designers are also proficient in utilizing decorative stock, such as blue thistle, and accents, such as deep blue vases, to celebrate the beautiful hue.

Another September Ambassador: Asters are the birth flower of September, and are another great way to create a meaningful bouquet. Because they bloom in late summer and early fall, they are abundantly available at this time of year, and their diverse colorful varieties are a popular choice. Related to the daisy, the aster also exhibits a center disk surrounded by “ray florets” or petals. The aster can be distinguished by the center disk, which is always yellow, as shown in the delicate yellow and white aster above.

Whether the sapphire speaks to you, or the aster is your muse – there are many ways to be inspired when creating floral designs for September birthdays. We look forward to helping you to celebrate those you love the most – with flowers designed to dazzle. No matter if the birthday party is in Evansville or across the country, Zeidler’s Flowers is your best choice for floral arrangements and bouquets.
