The US election has been quite an emotional rollercoaster, and many could use a breather after all that. Sun Valley Floral Farms has the perfect remedy: flowers.
"The psychology of colors is well-documented with colors on the warm end of the spectrum—such as red, pink, orange, and yellow—shown to bring forth feelings of optimism and energy. Our bi-color Royal Sunset lily offers that perfectly soothing color combination in addition to its positive emotional affects as a flower.
"The Royal Sunset lily is an LA Hybrid, which means it isn't your average garden lily—LA Hybrids are a crossbred, man-made flower species. We have been these lilies for years now and have branded our LA Hybrids as Royal Lilies to indicate their prestige and high-quality standing. Their blooms are bigger than traditional Asiatics, their vase life is the longest of any lily to date, and they have an incredible range of warm colors. They are also virtually scentless—perfect for those who have floral allergies.
"Besides their excellent breeding history, Royal Sunset lilies also need a quality growing environment to really shine. We plant our bulbs directly into the ground, laying down drip tape and a wire grid as we go. The drip tape provides a consistent, measured supply of water and fertilizer directly to the flowers' root systems, and as the lilies grow, the wire grid is raised with them to provide support and help them continue growing tall and straight."
