- Bunny Calla Lily Plant
It’s a wonderful time of the year and the warmer winter most of us experienced has brought beautiful blooms to our gardens sooner than expected. Spring is here and
Easter is right around the corner.
Â
With the Easter holiday in mind we had to share this classic holiday look . We think everyone will love it. It’s the new
Bunny Calla Lily Plant at CalyxFlowers.com and we’re giving  it “Best Flower” for the week. Don’t you just love a beautiful bunny rabbit? Aren’t calla lilies so intriguing? When we incorporated the two together it turned into a true celebration of Easter!
Â
Although the “Easter Bunny” part of the holiday is separate from the Christian tradition of honoring the day Jesus Christ rose from the dead, we like that we’ve filled it with a
calla lily. White callas are believed to be a symbol of Jesus’ Resurrection, as the shape of the blooms bear a resemblance of trumpets, and the trumpets stand for victory.
Â
So there you have it. The bunny gets best flower. Happy Easter!

The Best Flowers winner this week brings us a total floral experience for all the senses.
Best Flower is awarded to our friends at Walt Disney World as the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival sprouts into full bloom. This year’s event is all about flowers and is being presented by HGTV which makes it extremely popular for the flower and gardening enthusiast as a full series of educational and designer presentations are planned through May 20,2012.
We love this time of year at Disney because flowers are the focus. What could be better than finding a Tinkerbell topiary as you meander through the park? Our must-see, the Bambi Butterfly House!

Lilly in Bloom
- Natural Floral Inspiration
Being that Calyx Flowers was founded as a direct-from-grower flower catalog back in 1988, we love to see how different catalog companies use flowers in their catalog layouts. With that in mind, this week’s “Best Flower” goes to two catalogers who we think really used flowers to bring beauty and life to their product pages.
First we have Tea whose tag line is “for little citizens of the world.” This creative cataloger used fresh flowers in the hair styles of many of their darling models. We love the orchid ensemble of phalaenopsis and cymbidiums with greens that graced the March cover model. Fresh-cut orchids have always been a Calyx Flowers’ customer favorite and we wonder if our customers might use the blooms to fashion a new ‘do.Â
Next up we have the vivacious Lilly Pulitzer whose Spring 2012 catalog was flower fierce. Titled “Lilly in Bloom”, this cataloger used flowers throughout the pages in bright hues of hot pink and green. A background of lush of peonies really caught our attention and added a lot of drama to their fashion designs in our opinion. Well done!

Each Wednesday Calyx Flowers is going to highlight the very best in flowers. It could be an elaborate floral display in London or a simple but eye-catching way to use flowers that we think is brilliant. It could be the floral pattern from a high fashion designer to a lively look at flowers from an obscure artist. We encourage all of our Flower Lovers to get involved and submit ideas for this new, weekly blog post. Read on to find out who was awarded the very first “Best Flower”!
Â
- Stacy Keibler in Marchesa at the 2012 Academy Awards
And the “Best Flower” at the 2012 Academy Awards goes to….Stacy Kiebler. George Clooney’s date to the Oscars this year wore a stunning gold Marchesa gown. The floor length creation was simply spectacular as the rouching in the gown was designed into the shape of a flower at the side of her waist. It was unexpected and we loved it.
Â
Remember, we would love to hear from all of our readers. Send us your ideas for “Best Flower” today.
