On May 28th, we honor those who lost their lives in service to country, a sacrifice that touches all of us. We come together with friends and family to remember the heroes particular to us, and also to embrace and enjoy the people in our lives now. Because of the three-day weekend (and the fact that Memorial Day is widely considered to be the beginning bookend of summer), many of us will be spending time outdoors, attending parades, hosting backyard barbecues or simply throwing the football around in the fresh air. Stadium Flowers thinks it’s the perfect time to spruce up your outdoor space.

Even if you aren’t hosting an event at home in your yard or on the patio or deck, you’ll still want to give some attention to those spaces your guests will encounter. This is one of the reasons we love our Cedar Porch Planter so much. It’s not just the striking design of richly-hued flowering plants, it’s the fragrant cedar planter. The look is both polished and rustic, perfect for a front door area or a back patio. You could use this as decor for any event you’re having outdoors, or simply use it as an enhancement to the space.
