Beautiful Blooms for Summer in Colorado
Beautiful Blooms for your summer arrangements
When summer arrives in the Colorado Rockies, there’s just something magical about seeing nature in full color—and what better way to bring that magic into your home or special event than with beautiful blooms? At Hosanna Floral, we know firsthand how summer flowers can light up a room, lift a mood, and turn a simple table into a showstopper. Whether you live in Montrose, Ridgway, Ouray, Telluride, Gunnison, or Crested Butte, we’re here to help you find the perfect summer bouquet.
What Makes a Bloom Beautiful in Summer?
It’s more than just bright colors. Beautiful summer flowers have a special mix of qualities:
- Vibrant Color: Summer is a time for bold reds, sunny yellows, and rich purples that mirror the season’s energy.
- Fragrance: Many summer blooms offer sweet, subtle scents that enhance the ambiance of your space.
- Longevity: The best flowers for summer are ones that can handle the warmer weather and still look fresh.
- Texture: Petal shapes, stem strength, and leaf variety add layers of visual interest.
Our Favorite Summer Blooms at Hosanna Floral
Classic Favorites That Never Go Out of Style
Roses – A year-round favorite that holds up beautifully in summer. We love pairing blush or coral roses with deep green eucalyptus for bridal showers.
Lilies – Elegant and fragrant, lilies bloom large and are a favorite for wedding centerpieces. Their strong stems make them ideal for arrangements that need to last.
Hydrangeas – Soft, full, and romantic, hydrangeas are perfect for adding volume and color to any summer bouquet. We use them often for Montrose weddings.
Bright and Cheerful Summer Stars
Sunflowers – It’s hard not to smile when you see a sunflower. They add instant joy and a rustic charm to any bouquet.
Gerbera Daisies – Available in a rainbow of shades, gerbera daisies are cheerful, hardy, and pair beautifully with both wildflowers and elegant stems.
Zinnias – Local favorites in Western Colorado, zinnias are vibrant, unique, and hold up well in the heat—making them great for outdoor events.
Florist anecdote: A customer in Telluride once ordered a birthday bouquet for her sister visiting from out of state. We included sunflowers, gerbera daisies, and zinnias. She later told us her sister said it was the "most cheerful gift she’d ever received."
Elegant and Unique Flower Choices
Lisianthus – With their delicate, rose-like petals, lisianthus adds a romantic feel to arrangements. We often use them for elopement bouquets.
Calla Lilies – Sleek and modern, these blooms are ideal for minimalist or contemporary designs. Perfect for upscale summer events.
Snapdragons – Tall, textured, and colorful—great for statement pieces.
Dahlias – A showstopper with dramatic color and shape. They shine in everything from wedding bouquets to "just because" gifts.
Choosing the Right Summer Flowers for You
If you're not sure where to start, here are a few things to think about:
- What colors speak to you? Bright and bold? Soft and romantic?
- Do you want fragrance? Not all flowers are strongly scented.
- Where will the bouquet be displayed? Indoors, outdoors, or in a high-traffic area?
- Is it for an event or a gift? Some blooms make better travel companions than others!
At Hosanna Floral, we’re always happy to guide you through these questions. Just last week, a customer from Ouray came in looking for something “not too flashy, but still summer-y.” We built her a bouquet with soft pink lisianthus, pale yellow roses, and sprigs of dusty miller—it was understated, elegant, and exactly her style.

You don’t need a big event to enjoy summer flowers. Here are a few perfect moments for a delivery:

Tips to Keep Your Summer Flowers Fresh
We include care instructions with every Hosanna Floral delivery, but here are a few of our top tips:
