The Peony, (or Paeony), is the name of the flower in the genus 'Paeonia'. Peonies are native to Asia, North America and Southern Europe. The peony is named after Paeon, the Greek god of medicine and healing. Another little known peony fact is that in 1957 the Indiana General Assembly made the peony the state flower of Indiana, a title it still holds to this day.
Phlox, (pronounced 'Flocks'), is regarded by many as a summer flower, but in reality, is available commercially for most of the year. Some varieties of phlox are available from the start of February to the end of December. Others like Phlox Snowwhite Fantasy is only available in May & June! Phlox is a genus of the Polemoniaceae family. Phlox is available in many varieties on the wholesale flower markets in lilac, white, pink, purple, red and some beautiful two tone varieties and is becoming increasingly popular for use in wedding flowers.
Phalaenopsis Orchids are also commonly known as Moth Orchids because some say the flowers look like moths in flight. The word 'phalaena' is given to a group of large moths.
