Our top 6 Summer flower choices for a colourful and bright bouquet

Here at La Beau Fleurs, we adore summertime for all the bold and beautiful blooms that are flourishing. Although we have quite a number of favourite flowers, we’ve narrowed it down to our top 6 choices for summertime blooms. These summer flowers are not only gorgeous to look at but also stand out for their gorgeous scents and distinctive looks.

1. Peonies (best between May – Mid June)

These popular flowers are always going to be on our list of favourites. These delicate blooms are loved by so many of our customers here in Warrington and Cheshire, and it’s easy to see why these are a popular choice for weddings! Not only do they make for a beautiful bouquet, but they are also a symbol of good fortune and a happy marriage.

2. Delphiniums (best in June)

Delphiniums, with their tall spikes of flowers in vibrant shades of blue, purple, pink, and white, are a stunning addition to our summer selections. These elegant blooms are perfect for adding height and a touch of drama to any arrangement.

3. Roses (All summer long)

Roses are probably our favourite flower all year round, but the scent of this gorgeous bloom really hits its peak in the summer. Roses always bring timeless elegance to any arrangement and we love them for it. Here in Warrington, we have fabulous local suppliers and growers that offer locally sourced Cheshire blooms to our beautiful flower shop in Warrington.

4. Dahlias (best in July and August)

Dahlias, with their beautifully intricate petals and striking, bold look, are a welcome addition to both our summer bouquets and more formal floral arrangements for events. With an abundance of colours available, dahlias always help to bring a touch of sophistication to our bespoke flower designs.

5. Sunflowers (best in August)

I’ve never looked at a sunflower without being instantly uplifted by its bright yellow petals. These blooms are like miniature suns, adding warmth to any room and lifting your spirit. These blooms are particularly popular for end-of-term teacher gifts, as a way of saying thank you and bringing a smile to their face.

6. Hydrangeas (best in August – September)

These big, bold, luscious blooms definitely steal our hearts in our summer bouquets here at La Beau Fleurs. Whether in soft blue hues, cheerful pinks, or timeless whites, Hydrangeas bring the wow factor to our bespoke floral arrangements.

So there you are, these are  just a few of our favourite summer flowers at La Beau Fleurs. Each summer flower brings its own unique beauty to the season, whether you're looking to brighten up your home or send a gift to someone special, these flowers are sure to impress.
