We here at Conklyn’s Flowers have no doubt that you’ve planned out the whole menu for your summertime soiree—you know, the one where you have a proper dinner party, inviting all your friends, family and neighbors over to eat, drink, be merry and welcome summer? These gatherings have a loose, festive and relaxed vibe, showcasing lots of fresh food and delicious wine or cocktails. Maybe you’re serving up sangria and tapas, a zesty ceviche or a jambalaya. Summer’s flavors are bright and bold, so it follows that the flowers you use to decorate your fiesta should be, too.

With that in mind, we give you Sunny Siesta, which should pair beautifully with your lime-spiked shrimp and heaping bowl of salad, topped with veggies straight from the garden. Lilies, Gerbera daisies and roses mingle here in all the colors of a tropical sunset. This diminutive design could work as a centerpiece in the table or as a fetching focal point elsewhere at your party. 

Whether you’re entertaining indoors or out, or serving a Latin-inspired menu or a Mediterranean one, pair with summer’s flowers to convey the season’s easy elegance.
