September Floral Astrology from Teleflora
|
Virgo:
Aug. 23 - Sept. 23
Teleflora's Sassy Sunflowers
With a penchant for detail, the Virgo personality is well known for its
meticulous and diligent characteristics. Though inherently modest and shy,
underneath their frequently unassuming, reserved exterior, you’ll find a wise
and witty side with a keen understanding of the people around them. Intelligent,
with a tendency for seriousness, a floral arrangement, like Teleflora’s Sassy
Sunflowers, will help to bring out their more light—hearted side. Or, choose
something featuring dendrobium orchids or asiatic lilies, or an arrangement or
plant dominated by creamy white blooms to reflect their love of purity.
Libra:
Sept. 24 - Oct. 23
Teleflora's Morning Sunrise Bouquet
Considered by many to be the most desirable of the zodiac signs, because it
represents the zenith of the year when the harvest of all the hard work of the
spring is reaped, the Libra—with its symbol of the scales—personifies
perfect balance and harmony. Romantic and charming, Libras are naturally kind
and gentle. A gift of an orchid, with its graceful profile and delicate
blossoms, reflects the Libra’s elegance and refined taste. An arrangement
designed to reflect nature’s magnificence, like Teleflora’s Morning Sunrise
Bouquet will please their sensibility for beauty in artful balance. Or, choose a
bouquet with roses to stir up their romantic side.
