le Tour de France

Celebrating the 119th year of the annual Le Tour de France, this arrangement features sunflowers - as seen along the race route - and yellow roses, green hydrangeas, and amaranthus! Yellow is said to have been chosen as the color of the leader's jersey because the newspaper advertising the race was printed on yellow paper. Le Tour de France is the largest sporting event in the world, as well as the worlds longest cycle race that takes place over 23 days and covers over 2,200 miles.
