The Flower of April: The Daisy
April is now in full swing and as the April baby in the SP
office (Hi, it's Emma!) I’m taking over today’s blog to talk about how much I love the cheerful
colours of the birth flower of April; the daisy!
Here at Shropshire Petals we are big fans of daisies, did
you know it was Daisy Bubb who started the dried flower business way back in
1985 selling dried flowers at the WI markets? That’s why our SP logo embraces the delightful Daisy.
To me, daisies are a wonderful representation of childhood
memories making daisy chains in the sunshine with my sisters and friends; a
memory definitely worth recreating with your bridal party during your confetti
moment! And as you can see below, although we don’t grow them for confetti, there are plenty of
them in beautiful full bloom here on the farm.
Daisies are the perfect addition to any wedding; making
beautiful corsages or additions to flower arrangements. As the daisy family
is said to make up 10% of all flowering plants on the entire planet, they’re
certainly not in short supply! There’s
plenty of ways of incorporating a daisy theme into your wedding, here's our Yellow and White Daisy themed confetti ideas.
Daisy Colour...
Sunshine Kisses is the Shropshire Petals confetti mix perfect for showcasing the
simplicity and joy of the daisy; a
subtle spring mix of white with the splash of yellow vibrancy! Perfect
for injecting some sunshine into any confetti shot,
even when the British weather may let you down! Our sunshine kisses is made up
of our honey’b yellow calendula petals and icing sugar white delphiniums.
Daisy Flowers...
Did you know our Country Garden Wheat Sheaf contains daisies? Amongst other cottage garden flowers it makes a stunning bouquet or a fabulous table center piece. We also stock a Country Garden wheat wreath that's perfect for the door of a country home.

And for those wishing to literally go the whole hog, showcase
the daisy theme in your wedding with our beautiful Daisy Daisy!
