Flowers in September: Autumn is on its way
September often marks the transition from late summer to autumn and brings with it a different selection of flowers than the peak summer season. If you are looking for flowers to give as a gift, it is a good idea to choose varieties that are typically still in bloom or have a particularly autumnal feel. Below you will find a selection of popular flowers that are perfect for September and make great gifts.
Popular flowers for September
Asters: Asters are classic autumn bloomers with delicate, ray-shaped flowers in shades of blue, pink and purple. They look cheerful in bouquets and as pot plants, making them a good choice if you want to give something long-lasting.
Chrysanthemums: Chrysanthemums are often associated with autumn and come in many shapes and colours. As cut flowers or potted plants, they are a typical gift for the cooler months because they convey a clear, seasonal mood.
Dahlias: Dahlias often display impressive flowers in vibrant colours well into autumn. They are very decorative as cut flowers and are ideal for special occasions when you want to give an eye-catching bouquet.Sunflowers: Late summer sunflowers can still be found in September and convey warmth and cheerfulness. Smaller varieties or individual flowers in an arrangement are particularly popular as gifts. Zinnias and cosmos: These robust summer bloomers flower in many gardens until autumn and are suitable both as cut flowers and as colourful potted plants for gift-giving.
Sedum and perennial varieties: Late perennials such as sedum produce compact, textured inflorescences that add texture to autumn bouquets. These plants are also ideal if you want to give something that will remain in the garden.
CHRYSANTHEMUM
a striking and diverse flowering plant that is widely grown in gardens and as a cut flower. It is characterised by its dense, multi-layered flower heads in a wide range of colours from white to yellow and pink to deep red. The plant is cultivated both as a perennial garden plant and in pots and balcony boxes, with varieties differing greatly in height, flower shape and flowering time.
CALLA
With its elegant, cup-shaped petals, the calla lily looks like a sculpture of nature – simple yet majestic. Its graceful shape and the soft sheen of its surface give it a timeless beauty that symbolises purity, elegance and devotion. In delicate shades of white, it shines like a breath of innocence, in bold colours like a statement of passion. The calla is not just a flower, but a symbol of noble feelings.
ALSTROMERIA
Alstromeria, often known as Peruvian lilies, are a popular choice for cut flowers and bouquets. They are characterised by a wide variety of colours and delicate flower shapes, which is why they are used in many arrangements. Alstroemeria are also often valued for their symbolic meaning. In many contexts, they represent friendship and affection, making them a suitable choice for personal gifts.
Flowers in September: Autumn bloomers that make great gifts
September heralds the arrival of autumn, and there are a number of flowers that are particularly attractive at this time of year and make great gifts. Dahlias, chrysanthemums and asters often bloom at this time of year, reliably bringing joy with their rich colours and full blooms. The shapes and shades of these plants convey the warm atmosphere of autumn and are very decorative in bouquets, pots or arrangements.
Dahlias are still in full bloom in many gardens and are ideal for lush bouquets, as their large flower heads immediately catch the eye. Asters have delicate, star-shaped flowers in shades of blue, pink and white and harmoniously complement more vibrant flowers. Chrysanthemums are traditional autumn bloomers with a long cultural history; they are available in many shapes and colours and are considered long-lasting cut flowers. Sedum (stonecrop) and later grasses offer a beautiful, textured addition to autumn arrangements and go well with more muted shades.
Other suitable options for September gifts include late varieties of sunflowers, which still radiate warmth, and garden hydrangeas, whose flower heads often remain in decorative shades after the summer. Heather (Calluna) is a classic choice for autumn plant gifts because it lasts a long time in pots and displays typical autumn colours. Zinnias and certain hardy roses that bloom again can also make beautiful, personal gifts as cut flowers.
