Best Friends & Sisters Have Their Day

National Friendship Day was established by Congress in 1935, and it was determined that the new holiday would fall on the first Sunday in August. The day set aside to celebrate one of life's most important relationships didn't catch on in the U.S. as well as it did around the world. Still, millions of people do take this annual opportunity to give accolades to their best friends. Did You Know? August 6 is also National Sisters Day, and since our best friends and our sisters can be the same person, that seems only appropriate!  Read More about Best Friends & Sisters Have Their Day »

Summer Hydrangea Flowers & Designs

Of all the seasonal flowers, the summer hydrangea may be one of the least appreciated. Not because its beautiful colors and lush, generous flowers are not recognized - but because they have largely been relegated to playing a supporting role in many floral arrangements. Still, this popular summer flower, which blooms between late spring and early fall, is deserving of our attention and our July spotlight! This month, how about bringing home a huge bouquet of hydrangea? Their ethereal ambiance and refreshing palettes make them the perfect choice for mid-summer floral arrangements.  Read More about Summer Hydrangea Flowers & Designs »

But its beginnings were a little fuzzy - from John Adams publicly declaring that July 2nd was Independence Day, to the majority of the founding fathers not signing the Declaration of Independence until August 2nd. Still, the date written on the original document prevailed, and a nation was born. Did You Know? John Hancock was one of only two members of Congress who signed on July 4th - which explains his favored position on the document.  Read More about Red, White & Blue Flowers for Independence Day »

As June 18 approaches, the experts at Ron & Alicia Robinson Florist have some suggestions for Father's Day gifts that may be a bit unexpected, but are guaranteed to make him smile. Did You Know? Father's Day is one of our country's newer holidays, having been instituted in 1966 by Lyndon Johnson. The woman who fought to make the day a holiday (Sonora Smart-Dodd) had been raised by a single father, and believed that he and others like him should have a day set aside to honor them - just like mothers did,   Read More about Great Ideas for Father’s Day Gifts »
