October is recognized as Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Multiple studies have reflected staggering statistics regarding the far reaching effects of Breast Cancer. These important studies indicate that Breast Cancer claims the lives of approximately 42,000 women each year with 255,000 being diagnosed in the United States. This awful cancer does not discriminate and is also diagnosed in approximately 1% of the male population.

Pugh’s Flowers has on staff some of the best Floral Designers in the floral industry.  Our talented designers always carefully consider every detail while creating thoughtful and meaningful flower arrangements. If you have a loved one or friend suffering from Breast Cancer, October is a wonderful month to show respect and kindness by giving them a loving flower arrangement from Pugh’s Flowers.
