October has two birth flowers: the Marigold and Cosmos. Both stems prosper during the summer and fall and have rich legacies in history, gardening, and folk medicine.
The first October birth flower is the cosmo. When you need to honor a person with an October birthday, a gift inspired by the Cosmos is both meaningful and beautiful. This daisy-like flower varies in size, between 3 to 5 inches in diameter, and comes in a variety of colors. The orange Cosmos is iconic of October birthdays (and fits perfectly in any fall bouquet!), but its other color varieties that include pink, white, and purple are also wonderful options to put in a gift.
Our growing collection of fall flowers and classic bouquets have plenty of orange, pink, white, and purple flowers that radiate the beauty of the Cosmos. Whether you order bouquets by the stem or pick a mixed arrangement, you’ll be pleased with the many options in-store. This guide to the Cosmos will help you understand this elegant flower and find the perfect gift that reflects its deep meanings.
