On this day each year, numerous like-minded civic organizers gather nationwide to prepare celebrations to commemorate parents everywhere. This has been a tradition since 1994 when President Bill Clinton signed a Congressional Resolution that effectively created National Parents’ Day. President Clinton wisely felt it was important to publicly recognize the supporting role all parents play in the rearing of their children.

In addition to beautiful and heartfelt flowers from Radebaugh Florist, you can also show kindness by doing other things. For example, you can set up a backyard picnic for the family, have fun spending time researching family genealogy, do some baking with mom and then most importantly simply say thank you to mom and dad for all of the wonderful memories and sacrifices. All of these will go a long way to making National Parents’ Day very special.

At some point in many adolescent lives, teenagers may feel like their parents are out of touch.  As we look back on lessons learned and sacrifices given from parents, it is easy to see that they really did understand and were very wise. This gives us the perfect way to celebrate a holiday. Perhaps you could arrange a small gathering for a Parents’ Day party. Bring out some of your favorite photos and cook their favorite foods. They will have a good time and so will you. Not to mention you will make a new lasting memory.

We do not remember the loving care of long nights where our parents stayed up rocking us back to sleep. If you have kids or grand kids, you no doubt grasp the full personal sacrifice of sleep deprivation. And how many times when you needed a friend and unconditional love did you seek advice from a parent regarding problems at school or just in general? So, on this upcoming National Parents’ Day, find a special way to reach out to your mom and dad.

Radebaugh Sunflowers

There are several varieties of sunflowers. The primary differences in the varieties are the length and girth of the stems and the size and overall dimensions of the bloom. Some sunflowers actually reach over ten feet in height. Plants of that size tend to produce huge yellow blooms. The best varieties of sunflowers for floral design tend to be the smaller variety.

Sunflowers produce an edible seed. Native American Indians used these seeds to create a number of different edible foods. They also used the blooms of the sunflower to create dies for clothing. Sunflower seeds have remained a popular item for many years and today the seeds are used for snacks and to produce sunflower oil for cooking. In addition to cooking sunflower oil is also included in some varnish and plastics and even occasionally used in pet food.

The Sunflower is generally thought to be a native North American floral variety. Truth be known, many of the varieties we know and enjoy today were actually brought to the U.S. from South America and Europe. Sunflower are super easy to plant. They require little if any maintenance. Some farmers in the U.S. plant sunflowers during late Summer, as a way to help pull unwanted chemicals from their farm soil. Sunflowers are known to absorb all types of nutrients and chemicals.

The Sunflower is an annual flower. It must be replanted each year. Sunflowers love sunshine. The more the better. It is also recommended that you plant sunflowers in a field that drain well. Sunflowers grow in a variety of climates. They prefer temperatures in the 70-to-78-degree range. Sunflowers are not choosy about the soil you plant them in. They will grow in nearly any type of soil. In Florida, California and other tropical areas, you can grow sunflowers year around. They will die back in Winter. Harvesting the seeds takes place after the blossom has died back and the petals have almost all fallen off. Cut off the heads and hang them up if possible so that they can dry. Do not stack them or they may become moldy. Flowers can be cut when they are full and used in either fresh or dried arrangements.
