The Best Flowers For 4th July Celebrations
Celebrating July 4th with flowers is one of our favorite ways to bring beauty and meaning to the day. Here’s our recommendations on which red, white and blue flowers best represent America:
- Red Roses - Are a nod to strength and sacrifice, two concepts woven into this country’s roots
- White Lilies - They represent purity and hope, which takes us straight to the heart of what July 4th is about
- Blue Delphinium - Delphinium symbolizes dignity and loyalty that feels tied to the spirit of independence
- Hydrangeas (white or blue) - Hydrangeas a luxury option for your 4th of July flowers
- Sunflowers - Not a traditional choice, we know, but they remind us of open-hearted American summers.

Our TIps And Ideas For Patriotic Flower Arrangements
When you’re planning flowers for the 4th July, it helps to stick with what’s thriving in July. Dahlias, lisianthus, cosmos and garden roses are usually in peak form. They last well in the heat too which is crucial if your 4th of July flowers are going to be outside in the summer sun.
One idea we love: red dahlias mixed with white lisianthus in low bowls across a picnic table. Add a few blue tweedia stems, and you’re successfully achieved the red, white, and blue color scheme which we’re pretty sure is a legal requirement on Independence Day.
Also, thinking practically, if you're bringing 4th of July flowers to a barbecue or dinner, ask for them to be arranged in a vase that can go straight on the table. That way, no one has to stop what they're doing to find one, and it looks thoughtful right out of the gate.
