everything flowers from eFlorist Ltd

Everybody loves having flowers around the house so here are a few tips to help keep yours looking fresh and lovely for longer:-

Food

Don’t just throw away the accompanying small packet that the online florist sends with your flower delivery; this packet contains a mixture of simple sugars that act as a food source to help your plants grow.

Water

Make sure you store your blooms in warm water rather than cold, as the extra warmth helps to transport nutrients more efficiently. Furthermore, always be sure to keep open stems under water as much as possible, especially when moving them from one vessel to another. Always be sure to give your flowers fresh water every two days rather than just topping up existing water levels.

Cutting

When putting your flowers in a vase, cut off all leaves that will be below the water level as these can often be a source of bacterial growth. In addition, cutting the stems at a 45 degree angle will help to increase the available surface area for water uptake. Always cut about an inch off of the bottom of the stems every time you give fresh water.If you would like to have more beautiful blooms dotted around your home then make us here at eFlorist your first port of call. No matter if you want bunches, bouquets or arrangements, we can ensure that you have lovely flowers delivered in no time at all.

There are times when finding the exact right words to suit a situation or occasion can be difficult. Of course, things like “Happy Birthday!” or “Congratulations on your new arrival” are pretty straightforward and present no problems for even the most reserved stoic. However, when situations arise that require you to reveal your innermost feelings; nerves can often make your words desert you just when you need them most. In situations like this, the very best way to articulate your feelings is to let flowers do your talking for you. This is a far from new concept as red roses have been given for centuries to signify love. Indeed, practically any time red roses are given, they are nearly always whispering “I love you” on behalf of the sender.

Of course, flowers can be used to say more than just sweet nothings. The fact that a beautiful bloom or charming bouquet can say just about anything is what makes receiving and sending flowers so magical. They can be sent to tell a loved one how proud you are of them, delivered to express your joy at a new addition to the family or given to convey your condolences at the loss of a friend or relative. So, whether you want to say those three little words to someone special or simply have an urge to tell someone how much you care, order flowers direct from us here at eFlorist and let our lovely blooms do your talking for you!

People seem to be increasingly rushed off their feet these days. With to-do lists piling up and it feeling like there’s fewer hours in the day it’s inevitable that some things will be forgotten about, and often it’s the little things that get relegated to the bottom of the list.

As with most surprise presents, receiving flowers fills people with excitement and joy. However, there is something very special about receiving a floral gift that makes it quite different to any other type of present. Of course, some people believe this to be nonsense as they literally do nothing more than sit in a vase for a week or two before being thrown out, never to be seen again. To such sceptics I can only say: send flowers to a loved one today for no reason in particular and then sit back and wait for their reaction. While you may not realise it, this simple act is buying a very special gift indeed – the gift of happiness.The moment your loved one receives their beautiful bunch or bouquet; they will feel like they are walking on air. This is because delivered roses, daises or daffodils are not just a ‘product’ – they are a token of your affection; and that is worth more than all the designer shoes or handbags in the world. These flowers will lift their spirits and make them smile every time they look at them for at least several weeks. This type of joie de vivre can only come from being truly happy, and this type of happiness can only be given as a gift by way of flowers.So, next time you want to get a loved one a surprise gift, come to us here at eFlorist and give them the gift of happiness.

Here at eFlorist HQ we’re a studio of nature lovers, and there’s pretty much nothing about the autumnal months that gets us down (except maybe the walk to the bus stop when it’s raining at 6:45AM!) Since flowers have a language all their own, here are a few studio tips for beating post-summer sadness!• Flowers! Of course, it’s rather our business to be inspired and moved by brilliant blooms. But flowers can add a real life to the home at a time when all of nature is bedding down for the chilly winter. Why not send flowers online to an elderly relative or loved ones who live alone? We love to send flowers to friends and family who live in built-up concrete jungles, just to remind them that not all is grey and miserable. We offer plenty of cheap flower delivery options, so you’ve no excuse! • De-clutter. That pile of tangled Christmas lights may not see any action for a couple of months, but there are probably plenty of bits and bobs that can organised, sent to charity shops or sold online for a little extra Christmas cash. • Get outside and remember that the U.K countryside is resplendent throughout the autumn months. We’re lucky to live in climate where every season has its own fabulous array of natural life to show off. Wrap up warm and go for a nice walk in any of the U.K’s premier national parks (obviously finishing with a nice cup of tea!)

There’s no better feeling than the satisfaction of knowing that you’ve made someone smile, and if you want to brighten someone’s day you could find that flower delivery is the perfect solution. Just imagining the look on their face when they open the door is enough to make you realise that it needs to be done, and whether they’re celebrating a special occasion or simply need cheering up you can’t beat a stunning bouquet of flowers when they least expect it. The best thing about sending flowers to someone is that you don’t even need to be there to realise that the thought will be appreciated. It can be ideal if you can’t be there to celebrate with them or to cheer them up in person, and the thought that’s been put into it will be enough to let them know that you care. It’s the perfect gesture, and when you can arrange online flower delivery from wherever you are it gets even better. All you have to do is head online, choose the bouquet and arrange for it to be delivered – the entire process can be completed in as little as a few minutes, and you can be confident that your heartfelt gift is whinging its way to the intended recipient. And, with same-day delivery you can give the other person an instant pick-me-up, being the perfect solution for those spur of the moment thoughts. Flower delivery can’t fail to put a smile on someone’s face, so take a look around and you’re one step closer to sending the perfect gift.

Like most things available to buy these days, fresh flowers can vary in quality. Therefore, it is essential that you keep an eye out for the following characteristics when looking to buy or send flowers.

Stiffness

A flower will begin to droop and wilt when its cells become dehydrated and lose their stiffness. Therefore it is always best to avoid buying flowers that haven’t been kept sufficiently hydrated. If your blooms start to lose their stiffness whilst in your home, cut their stems higher up at a 45 degree as this will enable them to absorb more water. The 45 degree angle is very important as it prevents stems from sticking to the bottom of the vase.

Stem strength

High- quality flowers will always have strong, straight stems. It is easy to ascertain how strong a stem is simply by holding the flower horizontal and seeing how much it bends: a stem that bends less then 30 degrees can be considered strong; however, any stem that bends more than 30 degrees is most likely too weak.

Foliage

The foliage present on a flower bunch should be free from any kind of damage, spray residue or disease. In addition, it should also be green and rich in colour. Any flower product that is fading or yellow should be avoided.When ordering flowers online from us here at eFlorist you can rest assured that you will only receive blooms of the very highest quality.
