Ten Important Things to Know When Ordering Funeral Flowers
By Ava Rose

If you need to order sympathy flowers and want to make sure you get the best flowers at the right price then read these ten insider tips.

1. If there is a service at a funeral home it is most common to send flowers to the funeral home for the viewings and you should try and get the flowers delivered for the first viewing as their may only be 2 viewings.

2. It is acceptable& customary to send funeral flowers, Plants or Fruit & Gourmet Baskets to the funeral home

3. If you are sending flowers to a residence do not send funeral flowers such as a funeral spray or a cross or a funeral basket. Funeral arrangements are typically one side and designed to be placed against a wall not suitable for a residence. Instead it is traditional to send white flowers in a vase to a residence or a plant.

4. If the family is Jewish and the family is sitting Shiva you should send a Shiva basket which is basically a fruit & gourmet basket that should be kosher unless you know it does not matter. You can also send a green plant but you should not send flowers or blooming plants.

5. Funeral flower arrangements are typically one sided as they are placed against the wall rather than in the center of a table. Funeral flowers that go to the funeral home are generally large and showy. Pieces like crosses, hearts and large funeral sprays can cost hundreds of dollars. Even though you found something to send for forty dollars you need to consider that your arrangement will be placed next to all the others and many people will spend more. I would send no less then a fifty dollar arrangement to a funeral home. This would be for plants and floral arrangement.

6. The card message is personal but some ideas are ‘our thoughts and prayers are with you’ or ‘with deepest sympathy’. It is also typical not to address the card specifically to anyone as the funeral director will collect all the cards and give them to the family. When you send a sympathy piece the card should clearly indicate who is sending the flowers (last name and or company name if appropriate) as it can be confusing to the family during a stressful time. You should also put your address on the card to make it easier for the family when they send out thank you cards.

7. If you are placing a banner on the piece it should state your relationship to the deceased. Customary banners are ‘beloved Mother’, ‘Dearest Friend’ etc. Many times a florist does not offer this as it is not something that they charge for and it costs them money. It will make the sympathy flowers you are sending look special so you should consider if it is appropriate for you.

8. When you send flowers to a funeral home the family generally does not take them home. If you want the family to have something for their home it would more likely occur and be more convenient if you sent the flowers to the home directly.

9. If you contact a funeral home that is trying to sell flowers you should politely say no thanks. Many of the mom and pop funeral homes have been purchased by a just a couple very large companies . These companies maintain the local name but they operate very differently. The funeral directors working for the funeral homes get commissions on flowers that are sold, the funeral home also keeps some of your money as commission on your flower order instead of it going into the sympathy flowers. Worse yet the funeral home employees don’t know anything about flowers, what is in season or in stock so you are paying a premium for lousy service.

10. Beware of websites pretending to be funeral homes, or websites acting like funeral home guides that are selling flowers. These sites are not associated with the funeral homes they pretend to be and I would not recommend dealing with them.

Make Your Summer Vibrant with Summer Flowers
By Stuart Anders

Summer flowers create a mood of vibrancy. They are grown in combinations so that they create a beautiful setting in bright colors. The summer flowers we have here in the UK can put a smile on anyones face. The summer flowers burst with color, fragrance and vibrancy. With summer flowers around, there is no doubt that summer is the time to enjoy and share beauty and abundance. Summer flowers with fresh blooms can be made into a bouquet for sending across for any occasion. Popular summer flowers like Orchids, Calla lilies, protea and heliconias lend magnificence, fragrance and color to any garden.

Plants with heat tolerance and stamina with beautiful appearance through the summer are the tender perennials. They include alternanthera, ornamental pepper, pentas and iresine, periwinkle, angelonia, purslane, impatiens, coleus, scaevola and blue daze. They can even survive through the mild winters and can bloom again in next summer. These plants are grown in such a way that the flowering and colorful foliage plants bring out a bright and colorful display. They create these displays with different varieties of shrubs, perennials and annuals.

Zinnias alone have 300 varieties and they can be mixed with the vincas, lantanas, hibiscus and caladiums to create the magic of colors in the garden. Summer flowers tend to suffer in the winter months and so need tender care during spring. Other examples of summer flowers include Amaranthus, Chrysanthemum, Freesia, Carnation, Iris, Heather, Gladiolus and Hydrangea. The annual varieties are often grown from seeds. Summer flowers like marigold, begonia and petunia create a flower bed during summer under the trees adding a touch of color to the environment.

A few of the various summer flowers such as Orchids, Zinnias, birds of paradise and hibiscus etc. can be chosen. Vases or bowls should be clean to display flowers. Nothing looks nicer in a living room than a vase of fresh flowers on the window sill. The exotic varieties include those made with mango wood or bamboos but it depends on your imagination to make it as unique as you like. Glass is a popular vessel for placing flowers in and leaves and foliage plants are added for the green effect.

A dozen long stemmed summer roses can be perfect for expressing love. Radiant yellow sunflowers combined with lilies and white lillies and carnations can set the mood for any party. A bouquet of lavender daisies and orange lilies will make a welcome gift for any occasion. The extensive range of summer flowers is huge and these should be examined closely before making your choice.
