Baton Rouge doesn't have the cold winters that many parts of the country experience, but we still look forward to the new season with anticipation. Beautiful spring days, before the heat of summer sets in, are carefree and sunny. And the bright flowers of springtime exhibit some of the most vivid colors we'll see all year. At Billy Heroman's Flowers, we love creating the spring bouquets that will revitalize the ambiance of any home or office, and remind us all of the promise and optimism of the season.
The earliest flowers of spring are generally the crocus (which blooms even in snow in northern states) and the daffodil - two quintessential harbingers of springtime. Read More about Seasonal Spring Flowers »

Floral Design Day was instituted in 1995, in honor of Carl Rittner, founder of the School of Floral Design in Boston. Rittner is considered by many to be the "father of floral design" and was one of the very first to recognize the work done in this industry as a legitimate art form. His legacy and vision have influenced thousands of professionals through the years. On the day he is remembered, we'd like to introduce you to one of our floral designers, Robert, who has been with Billy Heroman's Flowers since the 1970's. Although he took breaks over the years, he always returned - and he is here to stay. Read More about Floral Design Day – Meet Robert »
