What's in Season? Your Guide to Fresh Flowers in Indianapolis

One of the best parts of visiting your local florist is discovering what's blooming right now.

Seasonal flowers are often fresher, more vibrant, and more distinctive than flowers sourced year-round. As an Indianapolis-based florist, we may not have access to local blooms 365 days a year, but when they’re available to us, we prioritize them in our work. At Willow & Star Flowers, we love designing arrangements that celebrate each season.

What can you expect to find on our flower bar and in our arrangements throughout the seasons?

Spring

As the Indiana days grow a little longer and warmer, we begin to see the arrival of some of our favorite blooms! With tulips, ranunculus, anemones, daffodils, snapdragons, and flowering branches, our work captures the beauty of the season.

We can’t forget peonies, the Indiana state flower and a fan favorite. While peonies used to bloom in late spring and early summer, the ruffly beauties have made an appearance in early May the past couple of years. We love to see them coming!

Summer

Summer shows off a spectacular display of colorful, showy blooms. The season offers colorful dahlias, zinnias, cosmos, marigolds, and many locally grown flowers that thrive in Indiana.

Lisianthus is a summertime favorite among our team! Nothing compares to the lisianthus grown and nurtured by some of our local farmers like Holloway’s Garden.

Fall

Local autumn blooms feature rich textures and warm colors. Arrangements are a little moodier and full of beauty! Dahlias, marigolds, and zinnias continue to thrive alongside the arrival of chrysanthemums, celosia, broom grass, milkweed, and other unique seasonal accents.

Winter

While our access to local blooms reduces significantly as the days get colder and shorter, evergreen and festive winter berry add a beautiful touch of local charm to our work during the winter months.

Luckily, we work with a great team of wholesalers who help us work with growers around the world to supplement during these months.

Experience Seasonal Design

Every visit to our Indianapolis flower shop is different because nature is always changing. That's what makes locally designed flowers so special.

Whether you're picking up flowers for your dining table, celebrating a birthday, or looking for a thoughtful gift, our designers create arrangements inspired by what's most beautiful today.
