“The earth laughs in flowers.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do you know that flowers were cultivated long before Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day came in to existence?
Flowers make the world attractive. Their beauty, visual appeal and fragrance transform every space that they appear by making it beautiful and stunning and also putting a smile on the faces of people. How gorgeous is that?
“People from a planet without flowers would think we must be mad with joy the whole time to have such things about us.”
― Iris Murdoch
The beauty and attractiveness of flowers flows beyond measurable emotions as they impact and influence humans in different occasions and contexts: as gifts to loved ones to increase interests and mark passion, for consolation for the loss of a family member or friend to reduce grief, to show encouragement and support to a sick person as you wish them quick recovery, during meetings to create a beautiful atmosphere, in offices, at homes and also during ceremonies.
However the use of flowers are exhaustive because flowers can be used in multiple settings, to bear a certain message, to express various feelings and encounters as well as reference meetings.
“It’s so curious: one can resist tears and ‘behave’ very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then someone makes you a friendly sign behind a window, or one notices that a flower that was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed, or a letter slips from a drawer… and everything collapses. ”
– Colette
This site seems to have had no useful content from it’s previous owner, though I was able to find a few pages from 2010 about BULB Fine Art Gallery, and it had collections of photos of popular people, porn, and whatever seemed popular to the former owner. One of its pages was “Club Seventeen Galleries”, another was “bedroom stool”, totally random page titles. Weird.
However, I decided to transform it by adding content which showcase the beauty of bulb flowers. Currently it is under-construction but already there are some useful content about flowers which has been published.
Factors to Consider Before Shopping For Bulb Flowers on Special Occasion
Flowers complements an event by adding color to suit the theme because of their beauty. It is an undeniable fact that flowers are a great way for people to send a lovely message to their loved ones or friends during a special occasion.
Flowers are always great gifts to give to someone special on any special occasion and an awesome way of putting a smile on their faces. Both local and online florists offer great floral arrangements that suits various occasions. However, there are a number of things you need to keep in mind when shopping for bulb flowers.
Choosing Flowers
Knowing what you want the special occasion to be like is extremely important when shopping for bulb flowers. Choosing a theme can make it extremely important to narrow down your options. Knowing that you would want the special day to be truly great, you need to know your options from the word go. This helps you to choose the variety which will not only suit the person intended to receive the flowers but also add aesthetic to the occasion.
Color choice should also be considered when choosing bulb flowers. For instance, if you are looking for wedding flower, it is important to complement the appearance and theme of the wedding. Therefore the right color is important. Bear in mind that some flower types are only available in certain colors. Hence, if you prefer a certain bloom, find out what colors are offered in that assortment.
Another key factor is the time when the occasion will take place, just like color, the time of the year can have a major impact on the suitability of certain flowers. Some floral arrangements are only available in some seasons and not other.
Choosing Florists Online
Nonetheless, many online florists will have various types of flowers in different times of the year, as their flowers are sourced from different parts of the world and the weather in those countries might be different.
Online florist have a broad array of bulb flowers for virtually every occasion that you can imagine. Flowers are offered in elaborate bouquets, adorned in a vase or combined with other bulbs. They can also be customized to match your special needs and preferences.
About a year and a half ago, my sister was getting married. I, of course, was her Maid of Honor. My job was to run around and get some things done. I had to order the bouquet of flowers, the cake, the wine, etc. Every thing was going fantastic, until the day I received these flowers… They were a life-ruiner.
I was “smart” enough to order them online. They looked so beautiful, they were very expensive, they apparently smelt like cotton candy, and the pictures showed that they were the most perfect color that will match perfectly with the beautiful bridesmaid dresses that were a very pretty light teal color. They would have been the most perfect flower for my sisters perfect day. However, it wasn’t so ‘perfect’ after all.
The morning of the wedding, the delivery man came to drop off the flowers. They were the wrong color (a mustard yellow), the wrong type of flower, with an awful scent…. I was freaking out. I wasn’t too sure if it were them, or my boyfriend (he was in the bathroom at the time).
I then realized that horrid smell was coming off those flowers, we wanted to throw them out immediately. I phoned my sister and explained to her how ugly they were and how horrible the flowers smelt, she didn’t believe me, and just told me ‘they probably aren’t that bad’. Suit yourself, Jen!
Well her wedding day was ruined. There were so many people throwing up behind the church, counting the bride, the groom, all of the bridesmaids and groomsmen, the parents, the grandparents – Everyone. It was a nightmare from hell. It smelt worse than an outhouse. Stupid flowers.
