Sympathy Flowers Provide Comfort and Hope in a Time of Loss

The loss of a loved one is never easy. Grief stays with us for a long time. However, in the recent past, we could get together at a funeral and memorial service to comfort each other in-person. In the near future, we may be able to do this again, but during COVID-19, it hasn't been possible. We have had to grieve from afar and support each other through virtual memorials, calls, and messages of hope. Many have also contributed to special charities and campaigns in the name of the lost loved one to also show support. Even going to a cemetery has been prohibited, leaving many to feel lost without a place to go show their grief or visit a lost loved one. Through all situations, one gift has always provided comfort and hope without the need to find the right words. And, that gift has been flowers. Their beauty, color, and appearance say it all with love and support for the recipient. They offer cheerful messages and brighten the gloomiest of days. Our sympathy flower collection gives you many ways to show your love and support during these difficult times. We have flower arrangements, baskets, and bouquets as well as blooming plants like orchids to send safely to your Tucson-area recipient through no-contact delivery. Our sympathy flowers come in all sizes, colors, shapes, and themes. From religious sympathy baskets to patriotic flowers for Memorial Day, we can help you show your love and support. Call us if you would like to create a custom sympathy flower arrangement that sends a more personalized message of sympathy. Also, our sympathy collection includes gift baskets of fresh fruit and food, which can be helpful for someone who is grieving and struggling to find the energy to put a meal together. We also include a greeting card so you can briefly share a loving message along with your sympathy gift. For our sympathy collection, please call or order online today through our Tucson flower shop. We're here to help during these difficult times.

How to Care For Orchid Plants

Orchids are a stunning tropical blooming plant that can live a long life in your home or office. They regularly bloom with just minimal care. Here are some tips on how to take care of orchids and recommendations on the best place to keep them when displaying them indoors. Main Care Requirements for Orchids There are some basic orchid care tips. First, most orchids only require water once a week. Don't over water because this can cause root rot. Second, put your orchid in a bright windowsill, facing east or west. Third, orchids do well when fed weekly with an orchid fertilizer. Finally, it's best to repot the orchid once it stops blooming. Now, let's look at some more detailed tips on orchid care. Orchids are Diverse and Have Unique Care Needs It may be difficult to believe, but the orchid family has over 880 different types and more than 22,000 species. These tropical plants are known as "air plants" because they hang on to trees for support while others are "rock plants" and grow on or among rocks. Still other orchids are terrestrials and grow on the jungle floor. With so many home environments, it's easy to see why orchids also require diverse care. However, all orchids require the right light, food, humidity, water, air movement and temperature to thrive. Orchid Containers Orchids do not grow in pots in the wild so it makes sense to think a lot about how putting them in containers may impact their comfort. Make sure to use a pot that can provide room for the roots to breath and move as well as provides an ample environment for moisture. Good options include plastic pots and ceramic pots. Making an Orchid Feel at Home Since orchids like humid environments due to their origins in the tropics, consider using a humidity tray to recreate that environment for the orchid. This also can help improve air flow. The temperature an orchid requires also depends on the type of orchid. Phalaenopsis orchids thrive in a daytime temperature anywhere in the mid seventies to mid eighties while dendrobiums like their temperature to be around 10 degrees cooler. Order Today! Call us to order your very own orchid plant or send one as a special gift. We offer no-contact delivery and curbside pickup at our Tucson flower shop.

Mother's Day

Making Mother’s Day Special

This Mother's Day, which falls on Sunday, May 10th, we are encouraging everyone to order early. We are fortunate to report that we are doing well thanks in large part to the support of our local Tucson community. However, our supply chain could experience some issues due to the pandemic. We are so proud of our Mother's Day floral collection this year. It's really beautiful and reflects the creative spirit of our incredible floral design team that has shown resilience in the face of so much uncertainty. They truly went above and beyond, with the idea that they could bring cheer, love, and positivity to more people during such a difficult time period. Here are some ways to brighten Mom's week before, during, and after Mother's Day: Select your Mom's favorite type of flower and buy them in bulk so you can arrange these in various containers around the house. That way, she'll see those tulips or roses in each room she enters. You can even deliver bright and bold sunflowers. That's sure to keep her smiling because there is a little bit of sunshine in every room. Take advantage of our Deal of the Day. Not only does this option for Mother's Day offer significant value, it also gives our floral designers the chance to make something unique for your Mom. She can feel like the VIP she is when she realizes the floral design was made just for her. Opt for something different and unusual this year to really surprise Mom. For example, our Azalea tree is a stunning flowering plant that is shaped in a topiary style. It's an eye-catcher. Help Mom brighten her porch, balcony, or patio with a colorful planter filled with flowers, blooming plants, and greenery or a selection of succulents. Pick a beautiful floral design from our Mother's Day collection that gives Mom a mix of flowers and colors along with many keepsake containers, offering two gifts in one and something to enjoy for years to come. Order and Delivery Please think about scheduling your delivery earlier than normal as well. Please don't wait until the last minute to order or to send your Mother's Day gift. We have limited delivery slots because of the no-contact delivery and need to ensure that we follow strict guidelines for everyone's health and safety. When you send flowers during this upcoming week your Mom will have the chance to enjoy them during the days leading up to Mother's Day.
