There’s something about December in Houston that makes us crave warmth—not just the kind that comes from a crackling fire, but the kind we feel when family gathers, memories return, and traditions settle softly into the room like snowfall we never actually get. Maybe that’s why this Christmas Hearth Red & White Tree Arrangement has become a quiet favorite among our customers. It feels familiar, comforting, and festive in a way that doesn’t try too hard.
Shaped like a petite holiday tree, it stands tall with red roses that remind me of classic holiday films and white mums that look like winter blossoms borrowed from a place far colder than ours. Nestled between them are baby’s breath and sprigs of evergreen, the kind of greenery that instantly makes a home smell like Christmas morning. And then there’s the container—the little ceramic fireplace that somehow manages to charm everyone who sees it. It doesn’t matter whether you have a real fireplace at home. This one tells its own story.
As a florist, I’ve learned something over the years: people don’t buy flowers just because they’re pretty. They buy them because flowers say something they can’t put into words. During the holidays, they say I’m thinking of you. They say you’re part of my season. Sometimes, they simply say here’s a little warmth when life feels cold.
Maybe that’s why this arrangement resonates. It captures all the nostalgia of Christmas—the lights, the ribbon, the colors—without losing the quiet tenderness we all secretly hope the season will bring. And in a world where December can feel like a sprint instead of a celebration, it’s nice to have something that slows you down, even for a moment.
At Floral Concepts, we love creating pieces that feel like home. And this one? It just might be our coziest design of the year.
