Tulip season starts in earnest in December. Up to the month of May, you can often find bright-colored tulip bouquets as a table centerpiece in many homes. It’s a custom that rightfully symbolizes a fresh start: spring! We all get fidgety at the end of winter. A simple tulip bouquet in the house already brings smiles to our faces!
Do you like shopping local? If you already shop locally for food, why not also go for tulips grown nearby? Over a billion tulips are grown in nurseries for local consumption. They’re as fresh as can be, meet high standards, and your purchase benefits the local economy directly.
Flowers have the power to soothe you and help you relax. Feel free to bring a lot of them in the house! Tulip, of course, but also hyacinth, muscari, and anemone. Pure white is a color theme that will match any house decoration. Expand the range with delicate pastel hues, and add on a few natural and soothing pink tones.
Instead of the typical plastic Christmas ornaments, try a natural alternative out: tulip and hyacinth will excel at creating a warm and cozy atmosphere. Prepare small hanging vases, filled with water, that you can hang on branches in your Christmas tree.
Any extra flowers you can set up in a larger vase nearby, together with more anemones or Polianthes.
This will create a true Christmas atmosphere, without reaching the “overstimulation” tipping point.
If you’re up to it, keep your early tulips whole, with their bulb, in a pot. They won’t bloom again in this spring, but in the next, they’ll be ready!
All in all, a great way to introduce the Christmas spirit in the house, while helping you and your family relax.
