As April unfolds across Toronto, there's a gentle shift in the air - brighter mornings, longer days, and the unmistakable arrival of spring flowers. At Oleander, we welcome this vibrant season with open arms and full buckets! From daffodils to hyacinths, tulips to muscari, these springtime favourites are now filling our shop with colour, fragrance, and the promise of warmer days to come!
Spring bulbs are among the first to bloom after winter’s rest, making them powerful symbols of renewal. They’re bold, beautiful, and fleeting - a reminder to pause and enjoy the moment. Whether you're brightening up your home or sending a gift to someone special, these early blooms are the perfect way to say spring is here.
Here’s a look at some of our favourite spring flowers available at Oleander right now:
Daffodils
Cheerful and unmistakably sunny, daffodils are the unofficial ambassadors of spring. Their vibrant yellow (and sometimes white or orange) trumpets bring instant joy to any arrangement. We love pairing them with soft pastels for an uplifting bouquet that feels like a fresh start.
Tulips
Elegant and endlessly versatile, tulips come in nearly every colour imaginable - from subtle creams to deep purples and fiery reds. Whether arranged in a tight, modern bunch or a loose, garden-style mix, tulips are a seasonal staple we simply can’t get enough of.
Hyacinths
With their rich fragrance and dense clusters of tiny petals, hyacinths bring both beauty and scent to spring arrangements. Available in shades of pink, purple, white, and blue, they’re a favourite for centrepieces and front entrance arrangements alike.
Muscari (Grape Hyacinth)
These tiny, bell-shaped blooms are a hidden gem of spring. Muscari’s soft blue-violet hue and delicate form add texture and a whimsical touch to arrangements.
Iris
Striking and sculptural, irises bring drama to spring arrangements with their ruffled petals and bold blues, purples, and yellows. Their distinctive look makes them a standout flower - perfect for anyone seeking something a little different this season.
Crocus
One of the very first flowers to emerge from the snow, crocuses are petite but powerful. Their simple form and soft colouring (lavender, white, gold) bring a quiet beauty to mixed bulb arrangements and seasonal potted gifts.
At Oleander, our April offerings feature a mix of fresh-cut spring bouquets and beautifully potted bulb arrangements that will continue to bloom at home. Whether you’re refreshing your space, gifting to a friend, or decorating for Easter or Passover, we’ll help you find the perfect floral touch.
