<p>There's no doubt that flowers make us feel better, whether we are the receiver or the giver. But why?</p>
<p>Study after study has looked at the effects of flowers on well being, and made some surprising conclusions. For instance, hospitalized patients who have flowers or <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/plants/potted-plants/">potted plants</a> in their room use less pain medication and have lower blood pressure than their flower-less counterparts. A Rutgers researcher found that flowers didn't just make people happy in the moment they were received, but continued to do so days after. Flowers promote a rosy outlook, oxygenate the air, bring the outdoors in . . . in other words, they are the perfect get well gift, or so we think here at <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-1134"></span></p>
<p>We also say, the more vibrant the better, as if some of that vibrancy will rub off on the recipient. To that end, we steer people looking for get well flowers toward something like A Blissfully Vibrant, which pairs tulips and orchids together in a visually arresting arrangement full of complementary purples and pinks. These flowers spill over a simple cube vase, offering a lot of shape and texture.<img src="https://frenchflorist.imgix.net/images/item/AMS101713030722733.jpg?w=950&amp;auto=format" /></p>
<p>You could spend hours looking at an arrangement like this, and given the fact that the recipient is likely bedridden or home bound, offering them something dynamic to look at is a gift in itself. This piece can easily transition from the nightstand to the dining room table once your giftee has recovered.</p>

    <p>As you may have heard by now, the population of bees is on the decline. Each year the number of pollinating bees drops by another 30%, placing several bee species on the endangered list and creating a problem for food growers. But we can do our part by inviting bees into our own yards and gardens, where they can find a safe haven from pesticides, climate change and invasive species that threaten their lives. <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/">French Florist</a> recommends that you include bee-friendly flowers with bright blooms and simple petals, create ground shade for hot days and some water for hydration and watch your bees get to work.</p>
    <p><span id="more-1235"></span></p>
    <p>Flowers that come in bright yellows, pinks and oranges like those featured in our <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/orange-roses-lilies-and-sunflowers/">Orange Roses, Lilies &amp; Sunflowers Bouquet</a> are perfect for drawing bees to your garden or backyard. Bees love the simplicity of roses and lilies, and sunflowers provide tons of nectar as well as shade. Fragrant blooms in bright colors are a winning combination for attracting bees.</p>

WHY BEE-FRIENDLY FLOWERS ARE IMPORTANT

Birthdays

Flower Gifts

<figure class="image"><img src="https://french-florist-web.imgix.net/ffv2/other/Original/seth_doyle_IMYvZjlX3jE_unsplash_1666688877158_36299.jpg" alt="Man with flowers" width="640" height="640" />
<figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@sxth?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Seth Doyle</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/s/photos/flowers-people?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a>&nbsp;</figcaption>

<p>It&rsquo;s an old-fashioned and out-of-date view that you can&rsquo;t give flowers to men the same way you would to women - and we&rsquo;re so glad that view is changing. The gift of fresh-cut flowers as a symbol of love and appreciation is universal, and everyone deserves to know how it feels to receive them, including the men in your life.&nbsp;</p>
<p>If you want to start buying flowers for men but are worried about straying too far from typically masculine tastes, focus on a bouquet made up of darker colors. You could also opt for an arrangement that utilises bold, striking stems as filler, such as grasses, bamboo, or laurel leaves.&nbsp;</p>
<p>At French Florist, we pride ourselves on creating beautiful arrangements for everyone. Read on to see some of the occasions our bouquets are perfect for, and order flowers for that special man by 2pm for same-day local delivery across Los Angeles.</p>
<h2>Show him your appreciation</h2>
<figure class="image"><img src="https://french-florist-web.imgix.net/ffv2/other/Original/towfiqu_barbhuiya_CdYKXD4XU_c_unsplash_1666689309041_33099.jpg" alt="Thank you flowers" width="640" height="427" />
<figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@towfiqu999999?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Towfiqu barbhuiya</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/s/photos/appreciation?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a>&nbsp;</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>Saying &ldquo;thank you&rdquo; is lovely; showing your thanks is the next step. <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/friendship/">Buying someone flowers</a> as appreciation is demonstrating how highly you think of them and what they have done for you - be it a selfless act, a hard-earned achievement, or even simply being there when you need them. Flowers say &ldquo;I see you, thank you&rdquo;, in a way that not many gifts can.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Maybe there&rsquo;s a man in your life who has really stepped up recently; be it a family member, friend, or partner. Peach roses are a popular choice for saying thank you, representing sincere gratitude, as are bold-hued camellias and hydrangeas.&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Say you&rsquo;re sorry</h2>
<p>There are lots of ways in which you can use flowers for <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/im-sorry/">saying sorry</a>. Did something not go to plan? Did they lose something or someone important to them? Did you make a mistake? Sending someone flowers shows that you are thinking about them, without being overbearing. If there&rsquo;s a man in your life who may not be the best communicator, you can let him know that he has someone there to talk to when he&rsquo;s ready by sending flowers.</p>
<p>We previously mentioned that hydrangeas are sometimes used to show thanks, but blue hydrangeas specifically are often associated with apologies. Blue is a cool, typically masculine color, but also a color that signifies peace - perfect for wishing someone peace in a turbulent time, or for extending an olive branch.&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Celebrate an anniversary</h2>
<figure class="image"><img src="https://french-florist-web.imgix.net/ffv2/other/Original/al_elmes_ULHxWq8reao_unsplash_1666691056833_76899.jpg" alt="Anniversary Flowers" width="640" height="427" />

</figure>
<p>Giving flowers for <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/anniversary/">anniversary celebrations</a> has a long history - there are even specific flowers to represent different years. However, in the spirit of breaking with tradition, feel free to simply pick the flowers that you think the recipient would like the most. After all, an anniversary isn&rsquo;t always a romantic occasion - it could be a case of marking years of friendship, or acknowledging the time since someone has joined a company.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Pick something bold and happy for the occasion. For example, sunflowers are some of the best flowers to gift. They are instantly recognisable and represent loyalty, happiness, and longevity - perfect for celebrating time spent together.&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Say &ldquo;happy birthday&rdquo;</h2>
<figure class="image"><img src="https://french-florist-web.imgix.net/ffv2/other/Original/oxana_melis_X_7Qb2Tg_6g_unsplash_1666690951794_69299.jpg" alt="Birthday flowers" width="640" height="427" />

</figure>
<p>The best thing about <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/birthday/">birthday flowers</a> is that they can be as unique as their recipient - this is a situation where you can really draw on any personal connections and memories in deciding which flowers to give. If you already know the birthday boy&rsquo;s favourite flower then you have a headstart, but don&rsquo;t worry if not - this may be the chance for him to discover which flowers he likes.</p>
<p>Lilies and roses make good birthday flowers as they are timeless, beautiful, and can be truly showstopping in floral arrangements. Both come in a variety of vibrant colours. If you&rsquo;re not sure where to begin in buying birthday flowers for men, you could always start by finding out what is the flower for your recipient&rsquo;s birth month.</p>
<h2>Why not test our theory and buy him some beautiful flowers today?</h2>
<p>If you&rsquo;re looking for plants and <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/">flowers for any man</a>, whether they're a loved one or a colleague, at French Florist we have a wide variety available all put together by our experienced and committed team.

<p>The popular rose is one of the world&rsquo;s best-loved flowering plants, not least because of the vast range of colors, sizes, and shapes that are available. This diverse flower can adapt to a variety of different climates and conditions and promises an abundance of stunning blooms each year. Roses also make excellent cut flowers for your indoor bouquet, and each color of rose is said to hold a different meaning, making the gift of a rose or <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/flowers/roses/">rose bouquet </a>that extra bit special.</p>
<h2>How Long Do Roses Stay in Bloom?</h2>
<p>The time of year, climate, and positioning of a rose plant, as well as how well it is cared for, will affect the length of time that its beautiful blooms can be enjoyed. On average a rose will be in bloom for two weeks, from the moment the bud opens to the moment the petals finally drop.&nbsp;</p>
<figure class="image"><img src="https://french-florist-web.imgix.net/ffv2/other/Original/annie_spratt_nGOF86liuBw_unsplash_1668534625712_89699.jpg" alt="Dead heading roses" width="640" height="427" />
<figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@anniespratt?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Annie Spratt</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/s/photos/dead-roses?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a>&nbsp;</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>Dead-heading your roses regularly with gardening shears will allow the plant to put its energy into making more flowers, rather than into making seeds (rose hips), which is what happens when a dead flower is left on a rose plant. Taking flowers from your rose plants when in bloom will also encourage new buds to form. Snip off dead flowers just above a healthy-looking leaf, and another flower will most likely grow from that joint.&nbsp;</p>
<p>At the end of its flowering season, a rose can be left to produce rose hips to allow it to go into its period of dormancy, ready for the following year&rsquo;s flowering. You can even use the rose hips to make tea or jelly if you&rsquo;re feeling creative.</p>
<h2>How Can You Keep Your Roses Blooming?</h2>
<p>There are a number of techniques you can use to help your rose plants to be at their best and to keep those blooms coming throughout the flowering season.&nbsp;</p>
<p>As well as removing dead flower heads throughout the flowering season, properly pruning your roses is important to help your plant continue to produce flowers. When to do this depends somewhat on your area and its climate, but as a general rule, prune your roses late winter to early spring, at the time the growth starts. Make sure this is after the last frost in colder climates. To prune a rose, remove all the leaves, then cut back any dead (brown) wood right back to the base. Neaten the center of the plant by removing any crossing-over branches, so it forms a nice, upwards conical shape. Also, remove any thin growth - anything thinner than a pencil is a good rule to go by. Cut main stems back to about a quarter of an inch above an outward-facing bud eye (the little lumps on the branches where new growth will appear). This will encourage them to grow in an outwards direction so the center of the plant doesn&rsquo;t get too congested.&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Can Roses Rebloom?</h2>
<p>Some varieties of the rose flower just once a season, while others will rebloom after periods of rest. Most modern roses bloom several times every summer, with a period of one to two months between each blooming cycle. Varieties you can be sure will bloom a number of times include climbing roses and most shrub roses, floribunda, Grandiflora, and hybrid tea roses.&nbsp;</p>
<h2>What Factors Can Affect Rose Blooms?</h2>
<figure class="image"><img src="https://french-florist-web.imgix.net/ffv2/other/Original/olena_sergienko_tBxdyYy9Tpg_unsplash_1668534798152_57899.jpg" alt="Blooming roses" width="640" height="965" />

<h3>Location</h3>
<p>Roses grow best in full sun. Not only does sunlight help the roses to bloom at their best, but it also reduces the likelihood of pests and disease. Roses also grow best in a location where the soil is rich in organic matter. Some people like to help fertilize the soil around their roses with chopped banana peels and alfalfa, both of which help add nutrition to the soil. &nbsp;</p>
<h3>Watering</h3>
<p>All plants need water and roses are no different. Established roses will need a good drink about once a week during the flowering season, and newly planted roses need water every two to three days. Check the soil around your roses regularly to ensure it hasn&rsquo;t dried out. It&rsquo;s best to water plants at the end of the day rather than at the hottest part of the day, to avoid scorching leaves, and to give your roses the best chance of absorbing the water before it evaporates.</p>
<h3>Feeding</h3>
<p>Roses are hungry plants and really benefit from regular feeding. During the growing season, your roses will need three or more feeds using a good quality rose fertilizer. Give the first feed in late winter and the next two in the summer. Your roses can also be mulched with leaves during the winter to help improve the quality of the soil ready for the following summer.</p>
<h3>Blind shoots</h3>
<p>Blind shoots are those which don&rsquo;t produce flowers. Unfortunately &lsquo;rose blindness&rsquo; can happen even with good plant care. Cut blind shoots back to the next healthy-looking bud, continue to prune, feed, and water your roses well, and the problem should soon resolve itself.</p>
<h2>Weeds and Pests</h2>
<p>Inspect your roses regularly for pests, invasive weeds, and signs of disease. Mulching your roses with leaves or woodchips can help to reduce the likelihood of weeds invading your rose&rsquo;s territory. Pests such as aphids, beetles, and mites can be removed by hand if it&rsquo;s a small infestation. For bigger pest problems you can use an insecticide designed for roses. Ensure you treat the underside of leaves as well as top surfaces when using an insecticide spray. If you prefer not to use insecticides, soapy water in a spray gun can sometimes do the trick.</p>
<h2>What Flowers Pair Well with Roses?</h2>
<p>Roses look great alongside a range of flowering plants, but there are certain ones that really work well together. Shorter, bushier plants can hide any &lsquo;legginess&rsquo; in your roses - providing cover for unsightly stems that appear too long. Plants such as lavender and dianthus work well in this situation. This is called &lsquo;underplanting&rsquo;.</p>
<p>Some plants can also help to actively fertilize the soil around your roses, providing nutrient-rich mulch for them to feed on. Other plants can help to discourage pests from your roses. Great rose companions include alliums, geraniums, globe thistle, and gypsophila, and herbs such as parsley, oregano, catmint, and sage.</p>

    <h3>Deliver Homemade Gifts</h3>
    <p>After a day of pampering yourself with face masks, yoga, or even a relaxing bath, you might be in the mood for something a little more creative and rewarding. Instead of an activity that you can do anytime, spend your time making homemade Valentines and unique gifts. You can deliver your one-of-a-kind masterpieces to friends and family, or spread love through your community and drop them off at local nursing homes or hospitals.</p>

TIPS FOR PLANNING A DREAMY VALENTINE's DAY IN

In <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/local/ca/los-angeles/">Los Angeles</a>, <a href="http://www.frenchflorist.com">French Florist</a> offers beautiful floral arrangements that can help you convey your feelings of sympathy. Sympathy is a feeling of pity for someone else's misfortune. Expressing sympathy doesn't mean you understand what the person is going through. It simply means you care and want to lend your support.</p>
<p>Floral arrangements and a touching card are excellent options when looking to show sympathy. However, when you have the arrangement in hand and sit down to write the card, you may find yourself facing a loss for words. Finding a way to convey your sympathy in a supportive manner, without negating the emotions the person feels, is hard. Often, a short, sweet, and caring message is all it takes.</p>
<p>Are you still wondering what to write? Here are some guidelines and suggestions that will help you write a condolence card that shows your care. Choose one and tweak it to match your own sentiment and relationship with the recipient, or as a starting point to create your own original expression.</p>
<h2>What to Write for the Loss of a Spouse</h2>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1934" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/candles-300x200.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/candles-300x200.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/candles-450x300.jpg 450w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/candles.jpg 750w" alt="" width="300" height="200" loading="lazy" />The loss of a spouse is one of the deepest levels of loss possible. When someone you care about loses their spouse, they lose not only an important relationship, but also their life partner, co-parent, and best friend. You may find yourself at a loss as to what to write in the condolence card.</p>
<p>Loneliness is a very real concern for someone facing the loss of their husband or wife. In your sympathy card, convey your support and the fact that your friend is not alone. Some simple ways to do this include:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>'the love of a spouse cannot be replaced. I want you to know I am thinking about you in this difficult time and am here when you need me.</em></li>
<li><em>Words cannot express the sorry I am feeling for you. Give me a call at any time, even just to say hi.</em></li>
<li><em>'the love you had for your spouse can never be taken from you. Their essence will always be with you and will live on in memories. Hold on to that when the days are hard.</em></li>
<li><em>Your spouse was an amazing person. I cannot imagine the grief you are feeling. My thoughts are with you, and Im here to talk.</em></li>
</ul>

<h2>What to Write for the Loss of a Child</h2>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1935" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/mirror-300x219.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/mirror-300x219.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/mirror-411x300.jpg 411w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/mirror.jpg 750w" alt="" width="300" height="219" loading="lazy" />No parent expects to survive their child. When a child passes away, it creates a deep trauma for the grieving parents. You may struggle to find the right words to say.</p>
<p>As you write the condolence card, remember that your words can't heal this hurt. You can, however, provide support, and that's what your card needs to show. When writing this card, use the child's name whenever possible.</p>
<ul>
<li><em>We can't take away this hurt, but we want to send our love. Our prayers are with you.</em></li>
<li><em>We will never forget your child. She brought us so much joy. We are thinking of you and your family in the days ahead.</em></li>
<li><em>I feel blessed to have known your child. His personality brought joy to all who knew him. I am praying for/thinking of you.</em></li>
<li><em>While nothing can heal the heartache you face, love lives on in the memories you created together.</em></li>
</ul>

<h2>What to Write for the Loss of a Parent</h2>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1936" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/flowers-266x300.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 266px) 100vw, 266px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/flowers-266x300.jpg 266w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/flowers.jpg 750w" alt="" width="266" height="300" loading="lazy" />The loss of a parent may not come as a surprise, but it still creates a deeply-felt void. If youve never experienced this loss, you might not know what to say.</p>
<p>Often what you write for this card depends on whether it was the mother or father who passed away. For fathers, focus on what the man meant to his bereft child, or what his character meant to you, with ideas like these:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Your father's generosity touched many. He will live on in their memories.</em></li>
<li><em>Your father's sense of humor was a true gift. I will always remember the laughs. I am sorry for your loss.</em></li>
<li><em>Your father's love and character shines forth in you and your siblings. His memory will live on as you further his legacy.</em></li>
</ul>
<p>For the loss of a mother, focus on her nurturing role in your children's life. Here are a few ideas:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Your mother's love touched my life. She was a true friend who will be greatly missed.</em></li>
<li><em>My sympathies on the loss for your family. Your mother was an amazing caretaker and woman. We will miss her too.</em></li>
<li><em>My favorite memory of your mom was when she brought cookies after my own baby was born. Her legacy will live on in the kindness I see in you. I am sorry for the pain youre experiencing.</em></li>
<li><em>All the forces on this planet will never beat that of a mother's love (Elle Smith). As you grieve your mom, know that her love lives on in your memories of her.</em></li>
</ul>

<h2>What to Write for the Loss of an Acquaintance</h2>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1937" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/roses-300x264.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/roses-300x264.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/roses-340x300.jpg 340w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/roses.jpg 750w" alt="" width="300" height="264" loading="lazy" />Sometimes a loss isn't a close family member, but it still hurts. Losing a friend or coworker can bring daily pain. Every time that person goes to work or other places where they once spent time with that person, they remember their loss.</p>
<p>This may be a situation where you could use the card that comes with the flowers. Some simple heartfelt ideas include:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Im sorry to hear about your loss. I am here for you when you need a friend.</em></li>
<li><em>Wishing you strength in the days ahead as you adjust to this new normal.</em></li>
<li><em>Your friend (use their name if you can) will be in our hearts.</em></li>
</ul>

<h2>Signing the Sympathy Card</h2>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1938" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/branch-300x200.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/branch-300x200.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/branch-450x300.jpg 450w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/branch.jpg 750w" alt="" width="300" height="200" loading="lazy" />Once youve written your message, you need to end the card. This may trip you up once again. Should you sign it Love, With sympathy, or something else?</p>
<p>The signature line you choose will depend on your relationship with the person. If you are close, Love may be appropriate, but other options include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Praying for you</li>
<li>With my deepest condolences</li>
<li>Wishing you peace</li>
<li>With sympathy</li>
<li>Thinking of you/your family</li>
</ul>
<p>Choose one that fits the tone of your message and your connection with the person receiving the card and gift.</p>
<h2>Sympathy Messages for the Flower Card</h2>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1939" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/pink-white-300x200.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/pink-white-300x200.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/pink-white-450x300.jpg 450w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/pink-white.jpg 750w" alt="" width="300" height="200" loading="lazy" />If you choose to give flowers without sending a separate Hallmark sympathy card, then youll have a flower card to sign. It may be all you need in lieu of a more formal card, if youre sympathy message is short. If you are also sending a card, it's still best to write a small message on the flower's card.</p>
<p>Some options for writing a sympathy message on the flower card include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Thinking of you</li>
<li>With my sympathy</li>
<li>Our warmest condolences</li>
<li>Please accept my sympathy/condolences</li>
<li>Our thoughts and prayers are with you</li>
<li>We love you and care about you</li>
<li>With caring thoughts</li>
<li>Honoring (name of the deceased) with you as you grieve</li>
<li>Sending remembrance of your loved one</li>
<li>We will miss (name of the deceased)</li>
</ul>
<p>You may choose to include a quote about love and loss. If you do, it's a nice touch to credit the author of the quote. Here are some that work well for sympathy flowers:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>A great soul serves everyone all the time. A great soul never dies. It brings us together again and again.</em> Maya Angelou</li>
<li><em>Life is eternal, and love is immortal; Death is only a horizon.</em> Rossiter Raymond</li>
<li><em>Like a bird singing in the rain, let grateful memories survive in time of sorrow.</em> Robert Louis Stevenson</li>
<li><em>'to live in hearts we leave behind is not to die,</em> Thomas Campbell</li>
</ul>
<p>Then, sign your name on the flower card. That often is enough to convey your sympathies.</p>
<h2>Where to Send Sympathy Flowers and Cards</h2>
<p><img class="alignright wp-image-1940 size-medium" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/wooden-300x200.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/wooden-300x200.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/wooden-450x300.jpg 450w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/wooden.jpg 750w" alt="" width="300" height="200" loading="lazy" />Once youve chosen your sympathy floral gift, you need to know where to send it. If your friend's loss was a close family member, consider sending flowers to the funeral or visitation location.</p>
<p>For someone mourning the loss of a friend or coworker, send flowers and a card to their home or work. You can also hand-deliver the gift if you see the person regularly.</p>

<h2>Types of Flowers to Send for Sympathy</h2>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1941" src="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/yellow-300x200.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" srcset="https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/yellow-300x200.jpg 300w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/yellow-450x300.jpg 450w, https://frenchfloristblog.flowermanager.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2021/05/yellow.jpg 750w" alt="" width="300" height="200" loading="lazy" />Flowers are imbued with special meanings and symbolism, and choosing the right flowers for your sympathy gift can help you convey the right message. The first place to start is to consider the person who has passed on. If they had a favorite flower, consider sending an arrangement composed of only that bloom.</p>
<p>If you don't know their favorite flower, consider the symbolic meaning of the flowers you do send. For example, <a href="https://memorialhaven.wordpress.com/2015/08/25/funeral-flowers-and-what-they-symbolise/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chrysanthemums</a> are symbolic of mourning and grief in many Pacific Asian countries and are commonly used in funeral bouquets in Europe.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.flowermeaning.com/lilly-flower-meaning/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lilies</a> are the most common flower seen in sympathy arrangements. These have deep connections with Christianity and are a symbol of innocence, which can be comforting to the bereaved. Lilies also mean peace in Asian cultures, and many facing a time of grief can benefit from wishes of peace.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.flowermeaning.com/rose-flower-meaning/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Roses</a> work well for most occasions. Dark crimson shows deep love and mourning, making crimson roses a good choice for a funeral bouquet.</p>
<p>If the person who passed away was young, white carnations, a symbol of youth and innocence, make a touching gift. Red carnations speak of love and admiration, making this a popular option for sympathy flowers as well.</p>

<p>While we often view <a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/occasions/memorial-day/">Memorial Day</a> as the unofficial advent of summer, this is also a celebration of the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. We start to anticipate kids home from school and longer daylight hours. We also pay tribute to all of our loved ones who served in the armed forces and paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. To bring both occasions together, we often honor our fallen heroes with parades, neighborhood barbeques and family get-togethers. At<a href="https://www.frenchflorist.com/"> French Florist</a>, we love for our floral arrangements to reflect the true spirit of any and all occasions.</p>

<h2 class="underline">Refresh Your Bathroom</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">From shower curtains to shower drains, toilet bowls, and vanities, there is a lot to spring clean when it comes to your bathroom. Keep this year's spring cleaning extravaganza not only earth-friendly but easy for you, too. With household items like water and vinegar, you can create a simple and effective all-purpose cleaner. Use old t-shirts for cleaning rags instead of paper towels and disinfecting wipes. Toss your shower curtains in the laundry, even the plastic liner, and hang them to dry. Finally, before you put the vinegar away, pour some down the drain to ensure your pipes are clean and clog-free. It's as easy as that!</span></p>

<h2 class="underline">Reorganize Your Bedroom</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Did you know that decluttering your dressers, nightstand, and the space under your bed can result in a more restful night's sleep? A few guidelines of feng shui suggest keeping your shoes and luggage tucked in a closet to remove the feeling of being on the go as you sleep. You also want to keep the energy in your bedroom, especially around the place you rest, free-flowing. If you must store things under the bed, choose to store linens, blankets, and sheets over anything else.</span></p>

<h3>Reorganize with Flowers</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Spring represents the feeling associated with out with the old and in with the new. As we take this into consideration while reorganizing our bedroom, it seems like the perfect time to bring in a new bouquet of fresh spring flowers. Choose blooms to help make your room a beautiful, calming, inspiring, and happy sanctuary</span>.</p>

<h2 class="underline">Refine Your Kitchen</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ready, set, refine! Once you have refreshed your space with a deep clean, decluttered, and reorganized, the next step is to spruce up your space. When it comes to refining the kitchen, start by putting away spices into a designated cupboard or drawer and stashing away small appliances. You can always add a pop of color and personality with your dish towels as well as functional canisters to hold sugar, flour, or odds and ends. If you still think a little decor is necessary, go from room to room and pull from the collection you already have before purchasing more. </span></p>

<h3>Refine with Flowers</h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you are having a hard time figuring out which type of kitchen decor might be best for your space, go in the direction of spring flowers. An elegant arrangement in the center of your dining table or kitchen island, or displaying sweet blooms in your windowsill or in the corner on your countertop, is a beautiful way to add a pop of color and personality in a refined and graceful way.&nbsp;</span></p>
