Amelias Flowers

The wildly attractive Celosia Flower is actually from the Amaranth family and is believed to be edible! Any takers? This plant also goes by the names of woolflowers, cockscombs and flamingo feather – those are quite the street names!

I'm so excited about this second Team Member Highlight because Brie has been with Amelia's since our first season!! She is a true Flower Truck veteran and I have absolutely LOVED having her as a part of our team.

Poppies have long been used as a symbol of sleep and peace; the opium extracted from them is a sedative, so naturally it became a symbol of tranquilization and eternal sleep. 

When I reflect on how Ameila’s came to be, I am quickly reminded of all the people who chose to unconditionally support this journey from the beginning.  From my close family to my dearest friends, all the way to kind strangers, I have always been surrounded by people who not only believed in me, but also believed in Amelia’s.
