“He adopted a role called Being a Father so his child would have something mythical and infinitely important: a Protector.”
-Tom Wolfe
Fathers are the very first superheroes we encounter. They keep us safe, encourage us to do more, and cheer us on when we go further than we thought we could. Sometimes they even wear funny outfits, just to make us laugh. Dads who love their children and take their role as a father seriously are larger-than-life. This Father’s Day, let your dad know what a hero he is to you with a fantastic gift just for him. The floral designers at Walter Knoll Florist know how special dads are, and we’ve created some amazing arrangements just for them. Read More about Celebrate Your Super Dad »
They say, “Friends are the flowers in the garden of life.” Friends are those bright, interesting treasures among the common and routine aspects of life. They are the people that are by our side through thick and thin, who can be called upon in the middle of the night, who know all of our secrets. We depend on our best friends, and on June 8th, we can let them know how much they mean to us on Best Friend’s Day. At Walter Knoll Florist, we bring friends and flowers together for this occasion with unique and delicate arrangements that will delight both of you.

Memorial Day became a legal federal holiday with the passage of the National Holiday Act of 1971. The holiday that we know as Memorial Day began as Decoration Day in May of 1868 when General John A Logan (who led a Northern organization for Civil War veterans), came up with the idea for a National Day of Remembrance to encourage people to decorate the graves of Civil War veterans. Today, Memorial Day is always observed on the last Monday of May. The historical roots of the observance are a distant memory as most people celebrate the holiday as the unofficial start of summer. Whether you’re having a backyard barbecue or a more informal picnic at the beach, the Walter Knoll Florist team wants to encourage you to infuse your celebration with colorful flowers.

There are some women in our lives who could only be described as ‘Super Ladies’. They are in our schools, in our hospitals, and in our doctor’s offices; our nurses and teachers. These inspiring women demonstrate strength, compassion, determination, and selflessness as they help the rest of us succeed. The women who embody these roles deserve to be thanked, to be shown just how much we appreciate them. The florists at Walter Knoll Florist wanted to design arrangements that would help you say ‘thank you’ to the teachers and nurses in your life.

With Administrative Professionals Day just around the corner (April 25), it's time to bring a little "Desktop Awareness" to those work places and their surfaces. We here at Walter Knoll Florist want to bring attention to all the sad, bereft, disorganized, cluttered desks out there and call upon work places everywhere to restore them to their former glory. Given the fact that we spend almost as much time at work as we do at home (in some cases, more), it's important that we take the time to refresh and renew our work areas. Conference tables, cubicles, reception desks and personal desks need a good spring clean, too. What else do they need? New flowers and plants.
