Tip from head florist Monika Dušková: "Summer flowers bring vivid colors, unmistakable freshness, and the joy of warm days into our homes. Flowers have their own clear season too – we start selling our summer bouquets at the end of May, and the season runs through the end of September. We very often use flowers grown locally, right here in the Czech Republic. Customers often ask us during this period whether a bouquet might wilt along the way. With us, that worry simply doesn't apply. We deliver all summer bouquets and flowers through our Airway courier service, exclusively in temperature-controlled, air-conditioned vehicles. The flowers travel in water the whole time, so they reach you in absolutely perfect, fresh condition, even during a heat wave."

The Stars of Our Summer Bouquets
In our summer bouquets, we combine species that best capture that sun-drenched atmosphere and are available at the highest possible quality at any given moment. What do our florists most often create with?
-
Sunflowers: The absolute symbol of summer. Bright yellow sunflowers bring positive energy into any space.
-
Hydrangeas: Huge, lush, round blooms in many pastel shades. They're absolutely perfect for grand arrangements, and a bouquet of hydrangeas is guaranteed to create a "wow effect."
-
Peonies: Elegant, noble, and incredibly romantic flowers with an intoxicating scent, especially popular in June.
-
Gladioli: Large, majestic blooms that give any bouquet elegance, height, and a strikingly architectural look.
-
Stock (Matthiola): Delicate and, above all, gorgeously fragrant flowers that bring lightness, freshness, and romance to bouquets.
-
Delphinium (Larkspur): A striking blue or purple flower whose tall stems beautifully complement seasonal arrangements and colorful wildflower bouquets.
-
Carnations: Traditional and extremely hardy flowers with an incredibly long vase life, a reliable addition to modern arrangements.
Why Choose Seasonal Summer Flowers?
Buying a summer bouquet isn't just about matching colors to the season — it's above all a choice for freshness and naturalness.
-
Longer vase life: They demonstrably have better quality and a significantly longer vase life than flowers artificially grown in greenhouses, out of their natural season.
-
Environmental impact: They're gentler on nature, since they don't require demanding, long-distance transport halfway across the planet.
-
Supporting local growers: By buying them, you support local growers and traditional Czech floristry. At KvětinyExpres.cz, we buy directly from Czech farmers in the summer. Peonies and sunflowers most often travel to us this way, straight from Czech fields.
How to Properly Combine Summer Flowers in an Arrangement?
Summer season brings an incredible wealth of color. Some flowers are so dominant that they shine perfectly on their own in a vase, while others complement each other beautifully. Our most popular floristic combinations include:
-
Sunflowers + Goldenrod (Solidago): A perfect, rustic pairing of bright yellow tones and delicate summer greenery.
-
Gladioli + Hydrangeas: A highly luxurious and elegant combination of huge, full blooms and majestic, slender stems.
-
Peonies + Eucalyptus: A highly modern, romantic, and delicate look with natural, airy lightness.
Summer Wedding and Birthday Bouquets
Summer is inherently the main wedding season. Peonies (a symbol of love) and bright sunflowers (a symbol of joy), thanks to their natural beauty, are absolutely among the most sought-after wedding flowers for our brides.
And if you or your loved ones have a birthday during the summer months, a seasonal bouquet is always the best choice. We'd be happy to put together a summer bouquet with a story, tailored exactly to your vision. Contact us, and we'll help you choose the most beautiful fresh flowers for your special summer day!
