Flower Buying Guide

Receiving flowers is one of the nicest surprises anyone can receive. Not only do flowers bring joy to people, they can often enhance ones mood or their frame of mind. Further, giving loved ones flowers for significant occasions such as birthdays and special anniversaries has become somewhat of a tradition across the world. Flowers have gained special meaning throughout history, thereby enabling people to communicate with one another through symbolism. Nowadays many of us use flowers to communicate deep feelings and emotions which may be difficult or near impossible to articulate into words. Further, flowers are used to send warm wishes and to cheer up the gloomiest days.

When should I send flowers?

There are many occasions where sending someone flowers is appropriate and there are other times when it’s expected. Valentine’s Day for example is the day where it’s expected to send your sweetheart a bouquet of beautiful flowers. Other occasions may be for an anniversary celebration, birthday, congratulating someone for their achievements or when a new baby is born. Finally, the best time to a send that special someone flowers is when you want to express your true emotions but can’t find the right words. Through colors and symbolism, you can choose the perfect arrangement to help you accomplish this. Keep in mind however, that the best surprise is when the recipient is not expecting it at all.

There are also times when it’s appropriate to send flowers to a friend or family in their time of grief. For example, flowers can help express your condolences to a friend whose kin has passed away. Likewise, it’s a ritual to celebrate the passing of a loved one with floral casket sprays, standing sprays and wreaths. Flowers for funerals ceremonies signify new life and lay forth a pleasant atmosphere for the one you hold great respect for.

Where should I send flowers?

This question may not seem all that important to men who are sending their significant other flowers. But this is a question you should definitely address. From our experience as a full service flower shop that has delivered to businesses, homes, hotels, restaurants, ships (yes, ships), and more, the most excitement that we’ve witnessed from our recipients is when we deliver to their work place. All the “ooohs” and the “aaws” that we hear from everyone. Not only do they all gather around to find out whom the sender is, but you have made your heartthrob the center of attention!  Luckily the research has been done for you. If you are interested in learning the meaning of colors and the meaning of flowers that will help you save time.  Furthermore, for some people, sending a gorgeous bouquet of flowers to a significant other, a friend, or family member may bring about a sense of self-satisfaction.  The great thing about sending flowers as a gift is that it can be enjoyed by both men and women. Another common benefit of receiving flowers or being around flowers is that it can enhance one’s mood.
