September Bloom and Holiday Guide: Celebrating Autumn’s Arrival with Flair
Welcome to Late September, where summer's warmth gracefully gives way to autumn’s crisp embrace. However, in Southern California we stay warm and anticipate the return of the Santa Ana winds.
This month, we’re celebrating not just the changing of seasons but also the stunning flowers and festive holidays that make September so special.

Asters, with their star-shaped blooms, are September’s flower of the month, bringing a splash of color just as summer fades. Available in shades from deep purples to soft pinks, these flowers symbolize wisdom and love. Whether you’re adding them to your garden or using them in a bouquet, asters are a beautiful nod to the season’s transition.
