RE: flowers that will bloom in august

The most special plant that immediately comes to mind is Jasmine sambac. Also known as Arabian jasmine
and Pikaki, which is recognized as the flower of love. All sambac should be abundantly blooming in your
area year around. I think they are just gorgeous and promise to provide a natural element as well.

Another that also particularly strikes me is Gerbera, which come in lots of color choices. I think they are just
gorgeous and very elegant. It very easy to obtain in any garden center. If you wish to prolong their blooming
period you can do so by trimming off ones that are already in full bloom as close as possible to the soil line
and keep the ones that have just started forming.

Stephanotis is another that should be in bloom for the wedding and of course you really can't go wrong with roses
either.

Best wishes on this special joyous occasion to you and yours!
