What Flowers Are in Season in Los Angeles Right Now?

Southern California's mild climate gives Los Angeles one of the longest flower seasons anywhere, so something beautiful is always at its peak. Right now, in summer, our arrangements lean on dahlias, garden roses, zinnias, lisianthus, and hydrangea. The market shifts month to month, though, which is why the surest way to get the freshest flowers is to ask for a seasonal, designer's-choice piece built from what is best that morning.

Why LA has a long, gentle season

Our stems are hand-selected before dawn at the Los Angeles Flower Market and from local growers up the coast, and the mild climate means the calendar rarely goes bare. Seasons here stretch and overlap rather than snap shut. Ranunculus and anemone, for instance, run long from winter well into spring. Designing around what is genuinely in season is not a limitation; it is how the work stays fresh, affordable, and a little different each week.

Spring: ranunculus, tulip, sweet pea, and the peony window

Spring is the market's showiest stretch. Ranunculus reaches its peak, alongside tulips, anemone, sweet pea, lilac, and the first garden roses. The prize of the season is peony, which arrives in a short late-spring window, roughly late April into June, and disappears just as quickly. If you love peony, spring is the time to ask.

Summer: dahlia, garden rose, zinnia, and lisianthus

Summer brings abundance and color. Dahlias come into their own, from dinner-plate blooms to small pompons, next to full garden roses, zinnias, lisianthus, cosmos, and hydrangea. It is the season for arrangements with movement and saturation, the kind of loose, garden-style work we build most of the year.

Fall: dahlia's last act, chrysanthemum, and texture

Early fall keeps the dahlias going, then the palette warms and deepens: chrysanthemums, marigold, celosia, amaranth, and the textural seed heads and foliage that make autumn arrangements feel architectural. Dried and preserved elements start to earn their place, too.

Winter: ranunculus returns, anemone, narcissus, and evergreens

LA winters are kind. Early ranunculus and anemone reappear, joined by paperwhites and narcissus, camellia, hellebore, and fragrant evergreens and citrus foliage. It is a quieter, more elegant palette, and a lovely one for the holidays.

The simplest way to buy in season

You do not need to memorize any of this. Ask for a designer's-choice arrangement and we build it from whatever the market offers at its best that day. Our everyday collection is made for exactly that, and the signature collection shows what larger seasonal work looks like.
