A Garden Of Flowers For Mom

Mother’s Day is less than two weeks away. It is one of the most anticipated spring celebrations, especially for moms. It is the one day where every mom is a queen, and she can revel in all the pampering her family gives her. It is also a day on which it is customary to shower mothers with gifts -- especially floral gifts. At Blossom Flower Shops, we believe in perpetuating the time-honored tradition of giving mothers flowers on their special day. Read More about A Garden Of Flowers For Mom »

Fresh, Modern Flowers For Prom

It's nearly May, and we're looking ahead to summer, which brings with it the end of the school year.

Here at Blossom Flower Shops, we believe it's never too early to begin thinking about the flowers you'll need to properly celebrate or adorn your favorite graduates. This is a high-flower time, and we're here for it. Read More about Fresh, Modern Flowers For Prom »

Pretty Peonies For All The Super Ladies

Circle the week of May 6 to May 12 on your calendar, its a big deal. This week is reserved for both teacher and nurse appreciation, two fields overwhelmingly dominated by women. Who are these women? The kind who educate, nurture, protect and otherwise empower the rest of us. Blossom Flower Shops encourages you to honor these special people all year long, but this week in particular is a good reminder to make your appreciation and admiration concrete.

A Blooming Tribute To Earth Day

Get ready, it's the Earth's birthday on April 22. Well, not exactly a birthday per se, but we here at Blossom Flower Shops feel like it's in the same spirit. Earth Day is an annual global celebration of our planet, an opportunity to raise environmental awareness, a chance to educate ourselves on how to best preserve and support life on Earth, and a moment to appreciate its abundant natural resources and riches. And when we say riches, we mean flowers and plants. What better way to honor the Earth---especially after you've spent the day at a recycling drive, clean-up or environmental fair---than to gather with friends and family and have a gorgeous dinner? So for all intents and purposes, this feels like the biggest birthday ever, and everyone's invited. Read More about A Blooming Tribute To Earth Day »

Show You Care, Become Desktop Aware!

Blossom Flower Shops is taking a stand against sad desks everywhere by embarking on an initiative we're calling  "Desktop Awareness." We're shining a light on the sorry predicament of the many work place surfaces across the country that have come out of this winter (if it's over) looking dismal, disorganized or totally bereft. We're calling upon you and your team to take stock of the state of your work desks and tables, just ahead of Administrative Professionals Day (April 25), and urging you to consider bringing some life to them with new flowers and plants.

A Spring Refresh With Flowering Plants

One of the best things about spring is the chance to rethink how both your indoor and outdoor spaces look. Along with a deep clean, we're also busy imagining how we want to plant our garden beds this year, or strategizing how to best organize our kitchens. We're bagging up old clothes for donation and making room in the closets, sweeping away the last of winter and in general giving everything in our homes a refresh. Here at Blossom Flower Shops, we believe that while it's great to pare down and prune out, it's just as important to bring some new things into our homes. Namely, plants.

How We Do Easter Baskets

Blossom Flower Shops has baskets galore, but we're not exactly filling them with Peeps and chocolate bunnies. No, we're packing them with flowers and especially flowering plants, using one of Easter's most emblematic vessels to our own glorious ends. Baskets always symbolize comfort and plenty, ever since ancient farmers used them to carry the spring's seedlings to church to be blessed. Flowers look lovely when they bloom from baskets.

Falling For The Fragrance Of Flowers

Let's be honest, one of the most enchanting things about flowers is their fragrance. And while it's true that not all flowers are created equal when it comes to their top notes, every flower exudes a distinct scent. Flowers are like people, no two smell alike. The variation is, well, intoxicating. Blossom Flower Shops thinks of spring as a prime occasion to create designs that celebrate the fragrance of flowers.

Blossom Along With Us This Spring

Blossom Flower Shops is looking ahead to March 21, when they tell us spring starts. It may be a bit later for us than that---we can't imagine our gardens suddenly bursting into action, for one---but there's absolutely no reason we can't convince ourselves that it's spring inside our home and work spaces. And how do we do that? With flowers and plants. Or flowering plants. Read More about Blossom Along With Us This Spring »

Flowers To Honor Influential Women

This March 8, you'll want to join the USA---and much of the rest of the world---in honoring the achievements of women young and old. International Women's Day has been on the calendar since 1909, a historic chunk of time for an occasion that has been, in all ways, so ahead of its time. Here at Blossom Flower Shops we see IWD as a unique opportunity to celebrate the most courageous and inspiring women in your life, and one way to do that is through a gift of flowers.
