This Memorial Day, Utah communities came together to honor heroes, and your floral choices made a lasting impact:
Gravesite Tributes: Our red poppy bouquets and cemetery saddles adorned veterans’ graves in Salt Lake City and Ogden, echoing the tradition of Decoration Day.
Ceremony Displays: Patriotic wreaths with red and white roses added dignity to local Memorial Day events, as noted by the National Park Service

Your tributes reminded us of the power of flowers to express gratitude and love.
