Floral Gifts for Christmas
[affilinet_performance_ad size=468×60] Flowers make a beautiful and thoughtful gift at any time of the year, but they are even more special at Christmas time. Traditional Christmas blooms like Poinsettas are both lovely to look at and are a nod to tradition, whilst red flowers of any description bring the colour of Christmas into your homes. Flowers are, of course, a good present to send across the miles, they can be ordered in one location and then sent to another, and, if you choose wisely, they will last the whole of the 12 days of Christmas and will see in the New Year too.

iFlorist – beautiful blooms for Mother’s Day
Sunday 15th March sees the day that all mother’s look forward to, and dad’s have grown to dread. Yes, this Sunday, is Mother’s Day, and that means dad’s up and down the country will spend this weekend worrying about what to get their other half on behalf of their little darlings. They may spend Saturday trying to persuade their little ones that mommy really doesn’t want that giant teddy bear, or that rather ugly lustre ornament of a pink pig carrying flowers (I’m shuddering at the thought.)

Enjoying flowers from the eflorist
When you think of receiving a gift of flowers, what service comes to mind? Hand delivered by a loved one, maybe your child on Mother’s Day? Or maybe a beautiful bloom delivered by delivery van, already in a lovely vase, or a presentation box? What you’re probably not expecting is your flowers to come in a large box, but that is how flowers come from the eflorist, one of the most successful online flower delivery services. I love receiving flowers, I truly believe they are one of the loveliest things to be given, and now that Joe is older we often have fresh flowers on window sills (Joe no longer…

Fabulous Mother’s Day Florals from Moonpig
On Tuesday I spent a lovely day in the gorgeous confines of the Montague Hotel in Bloomsbury. Enjoying a range of gorgeous sweet treats and Prosecco, I was a guest of the brand Moonpig.com as they showcased their latest floral offerings, just in time for Mother’s Day. Now I guess that I’m not the only person who believed that Moonpig.com was merely the home of personalised greetings cards. But to dismiss Moonpig as just a place to find a great card would be silly in the extreme. The brand is responsible for some of the loveliest floral bouquets and arrangements that you would ever wish to see. And showcasing these…
