We often can feel overwhelmed by the many responsibilities we have in life. This can make caring for one more thing seem difficult. But when that one more thing is a thriving green houseplant, you actually take care of yourself at the same time. Plants give us much-needed oxygen as well as a sense of calm when introduced to our living space. Owning plants is known to reduce stress and fill your world with a sense of balance. It can improve empathy and fill you with a sense of purpose. The floral artisans at Al’s Florist in Hollywood, FL, are eager to share some of our favorite greens with you. Consider bringing home a new plant for the wellness of your entire family. Read More about Take Care Of Yourself This September With Plants »

We know that with the approach of Labor Day comes the all-important question: white or no white? Even though tradition says to be finished with your white attire and decorating now that fall is approaching, we prefer to side with Coco Chanel on this topic and include white whenever we want. Adding a burst of white s on your dining room table, for example, along with white table settings and other accouterments, leaves plenty of room for a table runner of deep fall purples or oranges. Al’s Florist recommends including sprays of white bouquets in your decorating whenever you choose. Read More about Tranquil White Floral Styles For Labor Day And Beyond »
