Plan Ahead and Order Early for Valentine’s Day

Although it is good to plan for Valentine's Day in advance to ensure you get what your beloved wants and it coordinates with your plans, it has become even more important to order ahead this year. That's all because of COVID-19 restrictions that have been put in place by the County of San Diego. This means that we have to limit the number of deliveries we have to do each day. On a normal week this limitation may not be a real issue. But, on Valentine's Day -- and one that falls on a Sunday -- it becomes more challenging to fit in all the Valentine's Day deliveries across San Diego even with flower shops across San Diego. We are doing deliveries across all locations in El Cajon, La Mesa, and San Diego. Ordering now by phone and online can help you lock in your preferred Valentine's Day delivery date. Of course, you can also choose curbside pickup of your Valentine's Day flowers and gifts at our San Diego flower shops. This includes everything from our popular Valentine's Day roses to our luxury flower arrangements and gift crates. You can even order Valentine's Day plants! It's also important to order early for Valentine's Day in San Diego because we often run out of certain rose colors and some of the most popular flowers for Valentine's Day. Each year, our San Diego flower shops do try to plan in advance for this popular holiday by ordering more flowers. So far, this Valentine's Day has surpassed last year, which occurred just a few weeks before we started this journey with COVID-19. We are so happy that everyone wants to make Valentine's Day a big celebration this year to help add cheer during a [...]

National Houseplant Appreciation Day!

Sunday, January 10th is National Houseplant Appreciation Day. It's a good time to bring more of nature into your home and that of others in your life. The day was created to bring more recognition to the benefits that green plants, indoor plants, and blooming plants can offer you, including cleaner air and more oxygen. Since it's also the start of a new year, it's a good way to start focusing on better health and creating a home (and even work from home) space that includes more of the outdoors. So many of us are spending more time inside than ever before, so these plants can offer a calming and healthful effect during such challenging times. The other good things to keep in mind about houseplants is that most of them are very easy to take care of and last a long time with very little maintenance. In fact, all you may need to do is put them in indirect or direct sun and check if they need water once in a while. Our San Diego flower shops also provide an extensive collection of green plants. We are always looking at ways to add more plant varieties to our in-store and website shopping options. Right now, we are happy to offer quite a few different plant options that give you a way to enjoy some varieties you may not have previously known about. For example, we have dieffenbachia, pothos, and dracaena all of which are green plants with large green leaves that add texture and depth to a room. Then, we have other green plants that you may be more familiar with that can be ordered on their own or as part of a garden setting in a basket or other [...]

Celebrate the New Year with the Best Holiday Decor

I don't think anyone doesn't want this year to be over already. We would like to put 2020 behind us. Never have we looked so forward to a new year, hoping it brings positive change from the challenges of this past year. That gives even more meaning to New Year's Eve celebrations as we ring in a new year with perhaps more enthusiasm than has been seen in many years. We may even want to raise the bar on decorating for our at-home New Year's celebrations. Besides decorating your own home, this may be a good time to shower your loved ones with festive winter decor. The good news is that you can still enjoy the holiday florals and plants you added for Christmas as part of your own New Year's celebrations. You may want to add other fresh winter floral arrangements to celebrate the "new" year. Add some white or cream flowers to your overall design to bring these two celebrations together as you go from on occasion to the next. The week after Christmas and before New Year's is an ideal time to send others some love, including those that might have sent you a present or as part of your annual client gifts that you opt to send to kick off the new year. We still have many beautiful white and blue floral designs that provide an elegant winter floral display for this special occasion. Also, our holiday gift crates are a good idea for clients and loved ones, especially those that come with a bottle of champagne or wine to toast the New Year! These are parties in a box with decor or food to accompany the bottle of your choice. Order by phone or through our [...]

Celebrate Hanukkah with Beautiful Floral Displays

This year, Hanukkah is December 10--December 18th. Known as the Festival of Lights in Judaism. There are many traditions that are celebrated during this special holiday. These special traditions include lighting the menorah, a nine-branched light holder that is lit each night until all the eight days of the Hanukkah festival are celebrated. Another tradition involves some delicious foods, including fried foods like potato pancakes known as latkes and jelly donuts. Then, there is playing dreidel, a game that commemorates Jewish heritage. Finally, Hanukkah involves giving gifts during nightly gift exchanges. This has only been recent addition to Hanukkah celebrations, added during the late nineteenth century. Most importantly, this is a time for family and close friends to focus on what you are grateful for from the past year. And, now, more than ever, this level of gratitude and appreciation for health and each other. This is also an opportune time to focus on how you will practice more gratitude and kindness going forward. Your Hanukkah celebration here in San Diego may be a little different than during previous years because of the need to gather in smaller groups. However, you can still virtually get together to enjoy a meal or lighting of the menorah. You may also want to consider how you can decorate your home to offer more ambiance and decor for this special winter holiday. Our San Diego flower shops and website offer a Hanukkah collection of beautiful floral displays, including Hanukkah centerpieces, Hanukkah bouquets, and Hanukkah flower arrangements in various sizes and styles. This includes floral arrangements for Hanukkah in many shades of white and blue, two colors that represent this special holiday.
