Treat Everyone with Flowers this Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and although it’s typically known to be a time for significant others to spoil their partners, we also think it’s a great opportunity to show your love and affection for others as well. A bouquet designed by your local florist will surely be a delightful surprise to your child, your best friend, or even a neighbor.

A California grown bouquet like this one is great for your favorite barista!

Your favorite florist will be well stocked this time of year with a lot of California grown flowers, so be sure to give them a call to see what California flowers they recommend sending. Asking for California grown flowers not only ensures a greater variety of choices, but will also vastly extend the shelf life of your bouquet since they are locally sourced. Often times, flowers that have been imported were cut weeks ago and are not nearly as fresh as those that come from California farms. Although roses are wildly popular during this holiday, there are so much more flowers California farmers offer their consumers.

California tulips are a sweet alternative to the classic rose everyone will love!

Tulips, Hydrangeas, and Gerbera Daisies are some of the more interesting choices and offer great value as well as a longer shelf life. In addition, all of them come in a variety of colors. Your local florist will be glad to assist you in creating whatever look you want based on your color choices and price point. Remember, it’s important to order early this time of year so that you can get the best selection and price.

Love. Flowers. Always.
