The Peace Garden State
North Dakota is known as the Peace Garden State because of a monument by the same name that straddles its border with Manitoba, Canada. The International Peace Garden was established in 1932 as a symbol of the friendship between the United States and Canada, who share one of the longest unguarded borders in the world. In 1957 the North Dakota legislature made the moniker official. Flowers often help to show peace and friendship for such occasions as:
- Hostess Gifts. Flowers make a great hostess gift and show the host that you appreciate her friendship and invitation to her home. Consider your friend’s home decorating style when choosing flowers. Does her home have modern flare? Or does it feature more rustic touches? Kremp Florist can help you select your blooms accordingly so the arrangement looks stunning in her space. Often, a hostess will ask her guests not to bring anything to the gathering. Flowers are great item to bring in this situation because of their fleeting beauty.
- Thank you Gifts. Sometimes you need more than words to express your thankfulness. Sending flowers is a nice way to show your appreciation. Does the recipient have a green thumb? Consider sending a dishgarden, a collection of green and blooming plants. Plants like peace lilies, phalaenopsis orchids, kalanchoe, ivy, pathos, snake plant, and African violets could be included in dishgardens.
- Sympathy Gifts. Nothing brings peace quite like a display of flowers. When a friend or loved one experiences a loss, flowers are a traditional gift to send to express sympathy. Think all-white blossoms for classic sympathy flowers. Blooms such as carnations, roses, daisy pom pons, hydrangea, lilies, and alstroemeria will look lovely in white. On the other hand, color can be used to bring cheer to someone who is grieving. And symbolic colors such as red (for love) or yellow (for friendship) can also add meaning to your floral gift.
North Dakota Sunflowers
Did you know that North Dakota grows more sunflowers than any other state? The crop is one of the state’s largest agricultural commodities. The plants are harvested for their seeds that are edible alone and also produce sunflower oil and are a component of biodiesel. You will find fields of the sunny yellow flowers all throughout the state and especially in Emmons County and Bottineau County.
Sunflowers make a great gift in summer and fall. They can be used for any occasion to bring a bit of cheer and color to your recipient. Sunflowers are a favorite flower of many. Pair the blooms with red and orange flowers for a fall feel, or send the large heads and strikingly long stems alone for a mono-floral design.
