1 : 3 :: marigolds

I thought it appropriate to use marigolds as the flower this week since they are a significant symbol in day of the dead festivities. Their scent is thought to attract the souls of the dead and draw them back.

first we have a traditional marigold garland for a day of the dead celebration. Next we have a marigold and feather bouquet by tulip floral...check out the post, i love that each bridesmaid had a different single variety orange bouquet accented with the same feathers. Next is one by andrea at peppertree floral...such a nice mix of dahlias, marigolds, and ranunculus!
