Mayfield Florist offers the best selection of beautiful fresh flowers in Tucson, Arizona. We purchase many of the flowers we sell, direct from both domestic and international flower farms. Buying direct means our customers always have access to the finest, freshest, highest quality floral products available. We invite you to shop our website or stop by either of our two floral design centers to see our all of our gorgeous floral collections.
We often locally source floral products when possible. Arizona sunflowers are absolutely breathtaking. Many of the high desert succulent gardens that we create are designed using Arizona succulent products. When local sourcing is not possible, we purchase direct from flower farms. Buying direct offers many great advantages. We are able to secure a wider variety of floral products. That ensures that our customers can always count on Mayfield Florist to carry all their favorite flowers. The time between when the flowers are cut at the farms and when they arrive in our flower shop is reduced. When our floral designers utilize fresher flowers, that translates directly into longer vase life for the people who receive one of our flower arrangements.
Orchids: The most common type of orchid is the phalaenopsis, which has large leaves and long stems that come from a central point. This type of orchid grows best in humid environments and does not need much sun exposure—it thrives in shade. The phalaenopsis also produces flowers that last for about a month, making it an ideal choice for those who want to bring something special into their home for a short period of time. Mayfield Florist carries phalaenopsis, cymbidium and dendrobium orchids.
Peonies: Peonies are a beautiful and fragrant flower that can be used in many different kinds of bouquets, arrangements, and other floral creations. Peonies are available in a variety of colors, ranging from white to pink to red. They have large blooms with multiple petals and come in both single-stemmed and double-stemmed varieties. Peonies are often paired with other flowers to create stunning bouquets, but they can also be used on their own as a centerpiece or decoration for your home.
Roses: Roses are one of the most popular flowers in the world, but they're also one of the most misunderstood. We've put together this brief guide to help you get to know roses better. Roses are a type of flower that has a long history and is native to Asia. They were first cultivated by the Romans and became popular in Europe during the Victorian era. Roses have been used for many purposes throughout history, including medicine and food. Today, roses are mostly grown in California, Columbia and Ecuador. They are known for their beauty, fragrance, and symbolism. They're often given as gifts for love or friendship.
Ranunuculus: Ranunculus are a genus of flowering plants that belong to the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae). They are also called crowfoots, or buttercups, as they have similar flowers to those found in other buttercup varieties. One of the most obvious features of ranunculus is their color range—they can be red, pink, yellow, orange, white, or even purple! The petals on ranunculus have either five or six lobes and grow from a single stalk that's called a peduncle. Each flower has three sepals that form the outer layer at the base of the petal. Inside these sepals is a ring of stamens known as an anther head. This part produces pollen grains that form male gametophytes within the flower structure itself.
Tulips: There are about 10 different species of tulip, which are divided into two categories: spring-blooming tulips that bloom in early spring and fall-blooming tulips that bloom in late summer. Each species has its own unique characteristics and growing habits. The most common species is the Dutch tulip (Tulipa gesneriana), which grows well in cooler climates and produces large flowers with deep colors like yellow or orange at their centers. Other popular varieties include Turk's Cap (Tulipa turkestanica) and Darwin hybrid (Tulipa x hybrida).
