On September 10, we have the opportunity to celebrate some of the most special people in our lives. It is a day set aside to celebrate our family’s history and legacy, and to recognize Grandma and Grandpa in a special way. The floral experts at Boyd’s Flowers are here to help you to create arrangements for Grandparents Day that are sure to convey your love and appreciation.

Did You Know? While in some cultures multi-cultural living is the norm, in the United States the arrangement has not been as common. Still, nearly 37% of households are currently headed by grandparents, a fact which seems to indicate that families are returning to a more traditional way of life. 

We thought that in honor of this occasion, we would share some interesting traits that grandparents seem to share.

Grandparents are Generous: In the United States, grandparents spend $52 billion annually on their grandkids.

Grandparents are Happy: The overwhelming majority of grandparents report that having grandchildren is the single most fulfilling thing they have experienced in their lifetime.

Grandparents Positively Impact the Family: Children with involved grandparents are more secure, more confident, and happier overall than those children who do not have a grandparent in their life. Not only that but once grandparents, people are more likely to mend relationships with grown children as well.

Grandparents are Quite Proud: Over 90% of grandparents admit to speaking about their grandchildren on a daily basis – to anyone who will listen!

When it comes to celebrating these special people, floral arrangements for Grandparents Day are a beautiful choice. Whether your grandparents live in the Wilmington area or across the miles, these bouquets from Boyd’s Flowers are sure to convey your heartfelt sentiments.
