5 Things You Didn't Know About Sam's Club Flowers
Sam's Club offers no shortage of deals and amazing finds (How about this much-praised $15 non-stick fry pan?). But here's one thing you may not think to hit up Sam's Club for, but should: Fresh flowers. Talisa Otwell, Floral Merchant for Sam’s Club shares the inside scoop.

4. They offer hand-made wedding collections online.
"[These collections] are ready to go (think of it as a wedding in a box)," says Otwell. If DIY isn't your thing and you're not hiring a florist for your big day, shop pre-made sets that have you covered from centerpieces and flower petals to bridesmaid bouquets and corsages and boutonnieres.
Some of the biggest flower trends that Sam's Club is seeing for wedding this summer are peonies ("Oversized ruffled blooms, very little accessorizing needed"); “Old–fashioned” Flowers like Chrysanthemums, Dahlias, or sweet peas; Air Plants and Succulents ("Low-maintenance, unusual leaf shapes and blooms"), and Greenery ("This trend started last year and is still going strong. It gives the event a ‘wild’ or ‘natural’ look and is budget friendly!"). Flower crowns, garlands, and flower cakes are also en vogue for 2018 weddings. Browse wedding flowers here.
5. More flowers are available in the Spring than any other time of year.
Hint, hint. Sam's Club also offers handy guides like 6 ways to make flowers last and flower arranging tips and ideas to make sure you get the most out of your purchase.
