When Is Labor Day?

Labor Day in the United States is always held on the first Monday in September. The movement can be traced back to 1882 when workers marched through New York City for shorter hours, safer conditions, and fair pay. By 1894 it had gained such support that congress ratified the occasion as a national holiday. 

In modern times, Labor Day honors the people who keep the country running and remind us that the rights we have at work today were earned not handed out freely.

What Is The Flower For Labor Day?

Tricky question. In the United States there is no official flower tied to Labor Day. However, there is a very similar holiday held outside of the USA called International Workers Day. 

International Workers Day is held on 1st May each year and celebrates workers rights throughout the rest of the world, including European, African and East Asian countries. This version of Labor Day does have an official flower which is the Lily of The Valley.

What Color Represents Labor Day?

The color red best represents Labor Day. With the American flag known as the holiday’s key symbol. During Labor Day, many interpret the red stripes on the American flag to stand for the valor and sacrifices made by workers to achieve better conditions. Making Red the color which best stands for the occasion.

Creative Ways To Use Labor Day Flowers

One of our go-to Labor Day flower ideas is to design arrangements using florals that were historically grown or handpicked by laborers in the US. Such as red carnations and chrysanthemums. The red nods to the labor movement’s long-standing color and the varieties themselves reference agricultural work that built the country’s economy. Place these in low, heavy vessels along communal tables so guests pass them, just the way workers once did during shared food during gatherings.

Another nice touch is to add small cards with historical facts into each of your Labor Day flower arrangements. It takes only minutes to print and cut but it turns your flowers into part of the storytelling. Guests walk away with more than just a pretty table setting. They’ll leave with some interesting trivia about the holiday.
