Happy Memorial Day Weekend!




Waukesha Floral salutes all veterans and the men and women who are in service to our country today... thank you!!


Memorial Day weekend is the traditional time to plant outdoors... the weather is warm and the soil temperature is perfect. Here are a few of our favorite flowers in red, white and blue. Red geraniums are great for hot, sunny locations, white petunias attract hummingbirds with their sweet scent, and blue trailing Lobelia are self-cleaning and will provide blue beauty all summer.


Feel free to stop by... we'll be around Sunday and Monday 9-3 each day and would love to hear about your garden!


Enjoy the weekend!

Star Wars!




"Star Wars" was the theme of the 2010 Father-Daughter Dance at the Legend at Brandybrook. Waukesha Floral enjoyed decorating with star-point helium balloons and a balloon drop that contained over 800 balloons!

Planting Time!




Time has been flying and it's almost the perfect time to plant! Here are two plants I spotted in the greenhouse that caught my eye.... a geranium that features bright yellow in its leaves and an array of tuberous begonia plants in bright and beautiful colors! Geraniums are great for sunny spots, and the begonias do well in the shade. Our greenhouse is absolutely bursting with colorful, beautiful plants!
