Don’t Forget to Send Easter Flowers This Spring!

Spring is just around the corner, and one way to celebrate is to send Easter flowers. White Easter Lilies, Azaleas, Tulips, Iris, Freesia, Daisies and even Daffodils are all coming into season and make for a beautiful Easter or spring gift. Classic white Easter Lilies symbolize the purity of Easter and many spring flowers such as Daisies, Tulips, and Daffodils remind us that winter is almost over and warm weather is on its way.

Many people don’t know where, or when, the tradition of sending or receiving Easter flowers began. According to historians, the tradition dates back to Pagan times - before the birth of Jesus Christ - and reflects the people’s wish to ensure a bountiful spring. They would adorn the altars of their gods and goddesses with flowers. Today, sending Easter flowers like the traditional classic white Easter Lily is a treasured tradition. Legend tells of beautiful pure-white trumpet shaped aromatic lilies growing in the garden of Gethsemane after Jesus was crucified, reminding us of renewal and new life.

When you send Easter flowers, either in a bouquet, in a basket or simply as a potted plant, t’s easy and affordable with various Easter flower arrangements available to suit all budgets. Personalized Easter baskets are extremely popular. Indulge someone’s sweet tooth or tempt them with a basket of their favorite snacks.

Review of 1800Flowers


Wow! That's all I can say. Granted, I didn't order on Valentine's Day at the last minute - I ordered after a bad morning fighting with my wife or something trivial.

I ordered the JEWEL OF MY HEART(TM) (#17360)
and Add On: One "I Love You" Mylar Balloon (#2050LV)


They were stunning.

I grew up working in my parents' flower shop, so I know good fresh flowers from stale crappy ones. I also know that national floral referral services are only as good as the independently owned shop that actually fulfills the order.

I remembered from my own experience in the shop that FTD had poor arrangements that only looked good from one angle. Back then, Teleflora was the way to go.



Why did I go with 1-800-flowers?

Because one woman I work with always gets email from them, she has excellent taste, and I was in a hurry. These not only looked good upon delivery, they stayed looking good over a week. (My wife kept them even longer, though after a week I would have tossed them.) She received the delivery about 90 minutes after I placed the order.

The vase, while I'm sure was inexpensive, did not look like it. Unlike the awful milk glass or green glass, this one is a beautiful purple/lavender shade and would look fine in any surroundings.

My wife works in a tax office, and every day she told me about all the compliments she received.

Real Men Like Flowers, Too


Many women look forward to Valentine's Day as being the only time of year when they receive flowers


from their male partners. This is a little unfair however, as how often do men get flowers? Men tend to buy Valentine's Day flowers for romantic reasons, whereas women often buy for female friends and relations as well, as a platonic affectionate gesture.

If women find it so easy to buy flowers, why do so few men receive any? Men enjoy flowers as much as women and they have the ability to lift anyone's mood and bring some color into a room. Show your man that you care and select some flowers especially for him. About 5% of Valentine's Day flowers are bought for men and this number is growing.

Get your man some flowers that express his personality and show him that you love him - buy him flowers online with Pittsburgh discount flower delivery!

Trouble With Words? Say "I Love You" With Flowers



Top 10 Cool Things In and Around Pittsburgh

Welcome to one of the country's most delightful surprises. No longer the dirty steel town of old, Pittsburgh is now a true renaissance city. A city of modern cathedrals and Old World, neighborly charms, filled with high-tech companies, friendly faces, fun and adventure.




1. The Andy Warhol Museum




It’s a one-of-a-kind performance center and gallery devoted to an American pop culture icon. Impress the kids with the artist's famous Heinz Ketchup boxes.














2. Carnegie Science Center





Among the top five science museums in the nation, it features the Robot Hall of Fame, which was created by Carnegie Mellon University in April 2003 to attract attention to the increasing contributions from robots to





hu





man society.














3. Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium





It ranks as the fourth best zoo in the United States; and the National Aviary, the only bird zoo in the nation.














4. Senator John Heinz Pittsburgh Regional History Center





Operating in association with the Smithsonian Institute since 2000, this center is the largest history museum in Pennsylvania.














5. Outdoor Fun









Enjoy rowing, kayaking, and whitewater rafting along this region's rivers - the Allegheny, the Ohio, the Monongahela, and the Youghiogheny - and creeks, including the Connoquenessing and the Slippery Rock. Take advantage of hundreds of miles of walking, hiking and bike trails along waterfronts and through wooded hillsides.














6. Architecture





See Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob and Harrison & Abramovitz's first aluminum siding skyscraper (formerly Alcoa headquarters.)














7. Sports Scene









Pittsburgh is a city of sports champions, from the five-time champion Pittsburgh Steelers, to the Pittsburgh









Pirates and the Pittsburgh Penguins. Steelers fans will want to pick up their own Terrible Towel, a gimmick originally created to excite the fans during a 1975 playoff football game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the then Baltimore Colts. It's nothing fancy - just a bright yellow towel with the words "Terrible Towel" emblazoned in black -- but every self-respecting Steelers football fan has one.






8. Music Scene





Esquire Magazine rated Pittsburgh as the best among "Cities That Rock" in the United States. Pittsburgh's wealth of music, dance, theater and nightclubs includes everything from the delicate strings of The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra to the pulse of industrial dancing at Metropol/Rosebud; from the expressive movements of the Pittsburgh Dance Council to the classical lines of the Pittsburgh Ballet Theater.















9. Monongahela and Duquesne inclines





They are two of the few remaining funicular railways in the country. Built in the 1870s, these cable cars are working museums that transport visitors and residents to and from Mt. Washington for panoramic views of the city.














10. Kennywood Park





It was named one of the five best theme parks in the nation for its old-fashioned atmosphere and big-league roller coasters by the editors of MSN's CitySearch.
