Celebrate the Upcoming Spring with a Bouquet of Flowers

You may have noticed things are changing outside.

The car doesn't need defrosting in a morning anymore, there is still a bit of sunlight on your drive home from work, and some of them flowers that poke up once a year in your back garden are starting to emerge.

This can only mean one thing.

Spring is on the way, and here at flowersbypost.com, we think the best way to celebrate this joyous event is with a lovely bouquet of flowers.

But why is the turn of spring such a momentous time for flower-lovers?

Let's find out.

The Arrival of Spring

Here in the UK, we welcome Spring on the 20th (which it is this year) or the 21st of March.

The date varies depending on the sun.

Spring arrives on the vernal equinox, which marks the moment when the sun is directly above the equator, and day and night are approximately equal in length.

The beginning of spring is a time of new beginnings and optimism is rife, leading to many traditions that are used to mark the occasion.

What Does Spring Mean for Flowers

Spring is a season of renewal and growth, and this is especially true for flowers.

As the weather begins to warm up and the days get longer, flowers start to emerge from their dormant state and bloom.

With the warmer, longer, days, stems and leaves begin to grow, and new buds start to form in many flowers.

As the flowers bloom, pollination picks up speed, helping the flowers reproduce and the blooming really begins.

For many flower-lovers, the emergence of Spring is the best part of the year as you can sit and witness the emergence and blooming of many different species of flower.

Tulips in Springtime

When people think of spring flowers, they often think of tulips.

This is a classic at this time of year and for many people, spring hasn't really begun until the first signs of them tulips are beginning to emerge.

Tulips typically grow in March, April, and May, and come in a wide range of colours, making them the perfect gift for sending this spring.

Its impossible to miss the distinctive cut-shaped blooms as they pop through the ground, and many people see these early blooms as a sign that winter is coming to an end and longer days and warmer weather are imminent.

A great way to celebrate the beginning of spring is by sending a delightful bouquet of flowers.

There is never a bad time to send flowers, but there are plenty of really great times, and this is definitely one of them.

So, why is spring so good for sending flowers?
