Going Green for St. Patrick’s Day
St. Patrick’s Day is here, and if you haven’t purchased flowers for friends and family, time is running out! Why flowers you say? Besides the fact that they are symbols of beauty, love and friendship and would be adored by anyone to whom you presented them, they are also gifts from Mother Nature. They are the jewels of the plant world. As the last grains of sand flow through the hourglass, a better question might be: Why not flowers?
Keeping It Fresh
But don’t fret too much on waiting til the last minute. Your local florist is a talented professional, and she can whip up something amazing for you in a reasonable amount of time. Even so, it would be best not to delay. Even the fastest florist needs some notice if you want something both amazing and original. And honestly, who doesn’t?
Going Green
Is there a better, more natural option when giving a St. Patrick’s Day gift than flowers? They are not only elegant and gorgeous, they are biodegradable! Perfect for that environmentally conscious person on your list.
If you’re still searching for a St. Patty’s Day gift, contact your local florist immediately!

Send Flowers To Your Lucky Charm
Can you believe March is here already? This month is all about spring green and the luck of the Irish. Sunday, March 17th is St. Patrick’s Day — a day when the whole world turns green. As they say, “Everyone is Irish on March 17th.”
Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day In A Whole New Way
While St. Patrick’s Day is not necessarily a floral holiday, sending green flowers is a great way to say thank you to your Lucky Charm. It could be your significant other or even a best friend who has stuck by your side through thick and thin. It could be a study partner who has got you through crunch time. Maybe a last-minute babysitter who makes escape nights possible. Ask yourself, “Who do I need to thank for being a Lucky Charm?” You just might be surprised by how much luck you have through others. The arrangement pictures above, White & Yellow Roses, is a beautiful example of Lucky Flowers to send to your Lucky Charm.
Just remember to always always always use a real local florist when ordering flowers. You will not only be helping your community, but also getting the best quality flowers available. Happy March everyone!
Avoid Getting In A Pinch This St. Patrick’s Day — Send Flowers!
St. Patrick’s Day heralds in our favorite season — springtime! Spring is the time of year where the birds are singing, the flowers are blooming and love is in the air! It’s time to catch spring fever and send flowers to your hunny. St. Patrick’s Day is a great excuse to send some love with lucky GREEN flowers!
Most local florists have their own, unique St. Patrick’s Day flower arrangement special. What better way to show your Lady Luck you love her than sending flowers just because? This is a great way to avoid getting in a PINCH this St. Patrick’s Day!
So, just how did the pinching start anyway?
It started as an American Tradition in the 1700’s. Irish settler’s tales said, Leprechauns and other fairy creatures would pinch people they could see. Wearing green made you invisible to these creatures, preventing you from their sneaky pinches.
Hopefully sending flowers will keep you from being in a PINCH!
