One very thoughtful and caring way to show your deep-felt gratitude this Memorial Day on Monday May 30th is to send patriotic and heartfelt Memorial Day Flowers from Veldkamp’s Flowers. Memorial Day is a honorable day of respect and tribute and was officially designated as a federal holiday in 1971. Before that time, it was more commonly referred to as Decoration Day and started after the Civil War ended. Back then, people held many tributes to the heroic thousands of fallen American Soldiers that died in the Civil War. The tradition was to decorate graves with Memorial Day Flowers while also reciting prayers.
In today’s world, people attend or participate in parades and have family gatherings in addition to visiting memorials. There are many ways to reflect on our fallen heroes, including ceremonies, celebrations, and festive occasions that focus on patriotism and how much we value the freedom that we hold dear. These selfless warriors fought for us and now we must remember and honor them.
Memorial Day celebrations and remembrances often feature memorable and patriotic flowers. They are a great way to reflect the beauty and love represented in remembering these heroes, many of which were our loved ones. The skilled floral designers at Veldkamp’s Flowers will proudly assist you with select a caring, thoughtful and patriot flower arrangement or green plant to honor a special military hero and members of his or her family.
Below are some of the very popular flowers to commemorate Memorial Day:
