One of our favorite celebrations is birthdays! Is it one of yours, too?
We love meeting people who are celebrating their birthdays, and we love sending flowers to brighten their special day.
Mavis is one of our favorite ladies. She’s lived in the neighborhood for a long time, and we enjoy seeing her and learning from her. Here are 2 Happy Birthday floral arrangements we delivered to her on Saturday.
We can custom design a Happy Birthday floral arrangement just for you!!
Call, click or come by! And don’t forget to order your roses for Valentine’s Day, which is only 38 days away!

I love getting flowers for my birthday. It makes me so happy.
Debi, We just had a man come in to buy 2 white carnations for a lady who is “having a bad day”. He’s hoping the flowers will cheer her up. We’re sure they will. Flowers make people happy.
I can’t believe Valentine’s Day is in 38 days, time is just flying. My mom loves getting flowers for her birthday and every other holiday : )
Most people love getting flowers, Don’t you, Karla?
These are beautiful. I bet you will be busy for Valentine’s Day.
Thanks, Lexie. Yes, we are planning on being busy for Valentine’s Day. Between now and then I’m going to blog about why roses (and other flowers) should be ordered from a real flower shop instead of from a .com online. I hope you’ll share the information with everyone you know.
i just love fresh flowers! they brighten any room
We love being part of people’s lives to brighten their rooms!
These are really beautiful! I love getting flowers!
Thanks Jennifer. I think people really do enjoy getting flowers.
Who doesn’t like to be surprised with a beautiful bouquet? I love them!
We think so, too, Helene! People love fresh flowers!
Fresh flowers are perfect whenever I need a pick me up! I love it when my husband surprises me with flowers.
Good for you, and good for your husband!! I hope he stops by the local flower shop when he picks up your flowers.
That really would be a cheery thing to do for someone. Pretty arrangements you showed here too!
Thanks, Liz. We do our best to have our flowers be unique and cheery. I’m glad you think we succeeded.
I love that you have such an wonderful, and up to date assortment of baskets, and arrangements. You are such a great business woman and take time to address your customers which is lovely!
Thanks, Amy. I remember my customers (and recipients) even if I only hear from them once or twice a year!
I want flowers on my birthday! Heck, I want flowers every day!
I don’t blame you at all!! Just remind the people in your life to visit their local flower shop!
I dont need a special time to recieve flowers..thankfully my spouse sends them all the time!
He’s a keeper,Trisha!!
The flowers really add a bright spot during the bleak winter
I’m glad I was able to bring some floral sunshine into your day!
I love having fresh flowers in my house! They seem to brighten up each dark corner and grey day!
I think that’s a great idea! I think flowers in each dark corner would brighten your day!
My daughter’s bday is tomorrow. I could use this!
Contact your local flower shop in the morning and have flowers delivered to your daughter.Need help?Let me know and I’ll guide you in the right direction.
I love how cheerful the one on the right looks, but both are really beautiful! I’d be Blessed to get either one. š
I agree with you, Rhonda. We love designing more than one arrangement for one lucky birthday girl!
I love helping others celebrate theirs, but for me that means I am getting a year older. Those flowers are pretty!
One year older is, well, better than the alternative!! It’s really OK to be reminded of a birthday because you’re really one DAY older than you were the day before!!
I love birthdays too. I usually send flowers to my mother in law for her birthday. I love your selection.
Amanda, it’s great that you send flowers to your mother-in-law. About 40 years ago I started sending flowers to my mother on my birthday. Every year she calls me and asks why I sent her flowers, and I tell her that without her I wouldn’t be here! My mom is 86 and when she received these flowers last month it made her day!! (and I found an amazing florist in Denver to do the designing!!). Keep up the tradition because it’s so much fun to be the recipient and it’s so thoughtful to be the sender!
Beautiful flowers. I love getting flowers and plants on my birthday.
Me, too, Shannah, even though I’m with them every day! I love having fresh flowers in my home, too!
I love flowers.. I don’t get them but I love them.
Have you ever considered buying them for yourself? Walk into a flower shop and smell … then pick something out and take it home. You’ll feel GREAT!
They are gorgeous! I love flowers and plants as gifts, especially on my birthday, which is Valentine’s Day. Looks like I’ll be buying my own this year since I am single. š
Well, Alexandra, there is nothing wrong with sending yourself flowers on your birthday (the fact that it happens to be Valentine’s Day is insignificant). If your mother is alive, send her flowers in your birthday! (I’ve been doing that for over 40 years!). Make is a special day even if you’re single!
Tina- you posted the arrangements for Mavis on Facebook or maybe on google+ but who cares if our eyes see the lovely flowers again or read your warm thoughts. My hubby buys me flowers every now and then from Shoprite. They are not exactly the ones I would choose and I’ve stopped showing him my favorites. Its the thought that does really count. On FB, people send birthday wishes and I add a graphic of flowers. It brightens the posts and does please the birthday person. Flowers are such a nice addition to any room, table, home.
Yes, Roslyn, I did post Mavis’ flowers on facebook. I am glad you don’t mind seeing them again (especially since I’m under the weather today and didn’t have the ambition to do a new blog!). Kudos to your hubby for buying flowers for you! Is Shoprite a grocery store? He should find a flower shop and even he will see the difference in the flowers! I think I’m going to devote the next couple of weeks’ blogs to the difference in quality between grocery store and florist quality flowers. You can show him, but I won’t make any promises!!!
We like birthdays around here also… except when the candles are too many to blow out on the first try.. lol Feel better!
Thanks! I’m feeling a bit better today and yes, I’m at the shop (I played hookey all day yesterday and didn’t even stop outside!). But I just asked one of our wholesalers if breathing is a prerequisite, and he said yes, so I’m still having a tough time!!
I cant see myself ever not having flowers in my space….my husband buys them for me on a regular because he is kind & because he knows flowers make me so happy. Always happy to visit your beautiful site.
You are one lucky lady and your husband is a keeper! I’m so glad you enjoy fresh flowers and thanks for visiting our site!
How awesome to work with flowers and see the smiles these arrangements bring.
Yes, Debbie, the flowers do bring smiles. Now if only we could get the people to cooperate!!! haha
I love birthdays. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve seen friends my age cringe at the thought, but I love celebrating
I’m with you, and you’re just a youngster!! I think we need to enjoy every birthday because the alternative is not so good!
Wow, could I use some flowers in my space right about now. They’re the perfect reminder that this 7 degree weather (upstate NY) WILL pass eventually!
My mom says, and she’s always right: “This too shall pass”!! And pretty soon you’ll be complaining about the heat!
so pretty and i love the color combinations–you guys should consider doing mini videos to share your knowledge!
Jessica, thanks for recommending that! We’re going to look into this after Mother’s Day (when things slow down for the summer) so we’ll be all ready for next winter!
My good friend from New York surprised me one year, on my birthday, with flower delivery – carnations, my favorite. I was so thrilled!
You made my day!! I’m so happy your friend did this for you!!
I love flowers and they make me smile! Beautiful arrangements!
Thanks so much. I’m glad you like the arrangements!
I received the most gorgeous bouquet of flowers for my birthday this past year and enjoyed them for a surprisingly long time. So I know how Mavis will feel about hers!
Hurray!!! Receiving those flowers made you feel special, right? And the person who sent them also felt special. That’s a win-win situation!!
getting flowers is so special!
Oh, yes! Everyone loves flowers!
Happy Belated Birthday Mavis!! I trust you truly enjoyed these lovely flowers!
Yes, Yvonne, our friend Mavis had a great birthday! Thanks so much!
Beautiful arrangements for birthdays!!
I’m so glad you like them, Robin! Birthdays are one of our top 3 occasions to send flowers.
Flowers this time of year can make your winter blaa feel spring fresh, especially on your Birthday! Beautiful!
Thanks! Birthdays and winter blaa days are great reasons to send (and receive) flowers!!
Both of those birthday arrangements are so beautiful.. they would make anyone smile & be happy. They spell love.
Thanks, Pat. It’s great to be able to design different types of floral arrangements for the same occasion (like a birthday) and have them both well received.
Yes, I love celebrating birthdays. Your flower arrangements are beautiful!
Thanks, Robin. We love celebrating birthdays, too!
