When we talk about the flowers of early summer, it’s impossible not to mention roses. After all, June is designated Rose Month, and there are so many varieties that bloom with abandon during this warmer time. The rose is the perfect emblem for a season where everything is in its fullest expression: the hottest sun, some of the most drenching rains, the richest garden, the most fragrant blooms. Zeidler’s Flowers welcomes the warmer months for their sense of fruition and festivity, the kind of mood that a rose design seems absolutely made for.

Roses infuse our gardens and our homes with color. Every time they appear, or we receive them, it’s a surprise. How can you tire of roses? Even though we know them so well, we still can’t help but consider their appeal anew every time. For summer, we love to see a design like our Orange Roses on the center of a dining room table, or even setting the scene outdoors. These tangerine-colored beauties are the perfect palette for summer, but the lush greenery we’ve provided alongside it (as well as a touch of purple) really makes this dozen seems plucked from the garden. This is elegant but not stuffy, romantic but not overdone.

There’s never a wrong time to have roses on your table (or dresser, mantel, counter, desk . . . ), but in the summertime, when they’re at peak season, it just makes sense.
