Each new month comes with a new way to celebrate, offering a unique stone set apart as that month’s birthstone. With August now upon us, it is time for the striking peridot gem to be featured as the month’s official gem. With a hue that is bright and cheerful, this gemstone has long been associated with magical powers capable of bringing about good fortune.

The stone is also thought in some cultures to have healing properties, making it a desired piece to have in one’s collection. While you might not find a peridot while birthday shopping at Nanz and Kraft Florists, we think that choosing florals that showcase this rare color is the perfect way to celebrate all of your birthdays this month!  That is why we have created an August Birthstone flower arrangement especially for this occasion.

The peridot is a distinctive and unique stone. You may be wondering how to capture that same essence in a bouquet, but our floral designers have already done the creative work for you. We have combined some remarkable flowers – including roses, hydrangea and bells of Ireland – for a piece that is truly a work of art. These garden flowers, which exhibit the beautiful yellowish-green hues of the gemstone, come in various textures, shapes, and sizes for a masterful effect. This floral arrangement was specially designed as a part of our birthstone collection, and its beauty is as rare as the gem which inspired it.

As elegant as it is timeless, the peridot has been coveted since the time of the ancient Egyptians. Likewise, flowers have expressed the deepest sentiments and emotions since the beginning of time. Combine the two, and you have a birthday gift to be treasured. To order this birthday bouquet, or to have our floral designers create a custom arrangement for your August birthday celebrants, call or stop by Nanz and Kraft Florists today. We don’t just sell flowers – we create memories.
