Find Your One of our florist friend’s daughter published a fantastic article to Yahoo called, Valentine’s Day Flowers: Demystifying the Experience. It was so good, we just had to mention it on the Bloomin’ Blog!
Rachael Priest is a freelance writer and daughter of Paula Wagnon, owner of Buds ‘N Bows Flower Shop in Crawford, Georgia. Growing up in a flower shop gives her plenty of insight into the craziness of Valentines Day from a florist standpoint. Her tips are best for easing the stress of sending flowers.
Rachael gives excellent tips for consumers who are planning to order flowers for Valentines Day. Whether you are ordering flowers online or over the phone you can use these tips. There is even a section for sending custom flowers and under special conditions, such as sending Valentines Day flowers to your child at school. These tips are good practices to use when ordering flowers, even if they are not for Valentines Day!
What was Rachael’s key to ordering flowers? ORDER EARLY! It’s always best to order flowers early for the freshest flowers and on-time delivery. This is especially true when ordering custom or specific orders.
So before you order your Valentines Day flowers, make sure to read Rachael’s article!
Great article, Rachael! Thanks for the mention as well!

Thanks, Mandy! I’m still a bit overwhelmed at the response I’ve gotten from the floral community. It’s been great! And you are very welcome for the mention…people need to know who the REAL florists are in the industry. So many people have no idea what they are doing when they call those…a’hem…toll free flowers numbers. You guys do a great job advocating for the real people working in the field, and so your name should definitely be out there for consumers to find. =) Anyway, thanks again for the feature…I do feel very honored!
