Galax leaves are commonly used in floral arrangements due to their ability to cover mechanics and add texture. They are available year-round and can last 1-2 weeks in an arrangement. Sympathy flowers are an important part of the floral business, with arrangements being sent to homes, displayed at funeral homes, and placed at gravesites. Providing sympathy flowers is steady work for florists and an important local tradition and source of income.
