Tropical Flowers and Fresh Fruit Bouquets

What is the most common characteristic of tropical flowers?

Is it their heady fragrance, maybe their prolific nature? I think it is their vibrant colors.
Whether you are looking at a beautiful yellow, orange or red hibiscus or marveling at the outstanding colors of the paper thin bracts of a bougainvillea, there is no doubt that you are looking at a tropical plant. Did you think those beautiful ‘blossoms’ on the bougainvillea were it’s flowers? Actually, the flower is the little white tubular blossom in the center of the colorful bracts. They are small, but big enough for hummingbirds and other pollinators to find them.

Following the lead of tropical flowers, today’s fruit bouquets and arrangements are also composed of colorful flowers made from bright yellow pineapples, vibrant pink watermelon, orange cantaloupes, and the green honeydew. Then when you add purple grapes, bright orange citrus, green and black kiwifruit, bright red strawberries, and blueberries, you have a tropical bouquet that is also edible!

Keeping with the tropical theme, Flowers to Eat has added some vibrant new arrangements to their product line. Take a moment and look at the new Sensational Starburst, packed with color, flavor and creativity! Let us know what you think of this and our other new designs.
