How To Send The Perfect Funeral & Sympathy Flowers

Bussey's Flowers & Gifts Nationwide Same Day Delivery Comforting those who have lost a loved one is never easy. In fact, we are often unsure how to commemorate the death of loved ones. Today’s services are sometimes more simple and shorter in duration. An increase in cremations has resulted in shorter – or even no – memorial services. Yet, flowers remain an appropriate and thoughtful way to honor the loss of a beautiful life. For the Service Personalized funeral and sympathy tributes are a growing trend. If the deceased loved the outdoors, perhaps a design incorporating branches and natural materials would be ideal. If the deceased was an avid gardener, a tribute composed of garden flowers would be a perfect choice. For the Home Sending a gift of flowers to the home is a wonderful way to express your sympathy and is a popular trend. Some prefer to send flowers to the home immediately while others wait a week or more. There are no rules of etiquette, simply follow your heart. Flowers are a comforting reminder during the grieving process that friends have not forgotten. One question that we are frequently asked – ” Is it still appropriate to send flowers if the death notice mentions a charitable donation?” Yes. Sending flowers is always appropriate and in good taste. Flowers communicate what is often difficult to say in words. Flowers add warmth and provide visible emotional support needed during difficult times. To select the perfect gift, give the floral experts at Bussey’s Florist & Gifts in Rome, GA and Cedartown, GA a call. Share a few hints about the person you want to memorialize. Or, you may want to send a design that is a reflection of your own personal style. Bussey’s consultants will make suggestions and help you to [...]

Five Floral Cures For Your January Blues!

Bussey's Flowers Local Same Day & 4 Hour Express Delivery January. The hustle and bustle of the holidays are behind us, the Christmas decorations have been packed away for another year, and the cold, gray skies are starting to take their toll. Adding a touch of nature to your home is a simple and easy cure for the January blues. Here are five easy tips to brighten your home or warm the heart of someone you care about this winter. 1. Winter Whites. One of our favorite things about winter is the quiet stillness of the air. A few stems of snowy white blossoms juxtaposed against dense evergreens and the woody texture of pine cones evokes a restful, serene tone. Select a bouquet with beautifully petaled roses, lilies, or elegant orchids to create a sense of calm and serenity this January. 2. Color has a huge impact on our mood. We suggest you select a color pallet that conveys soothing and nurturing vibes after the mad rush of the holiday season is over. Crushed, velvety purples and lavenders layered upon fresh, crisp greens bring about a feeling of calm serenity. Select hydrangea in a bright tone of green. Lisianthus, roses, and even carnations offer an eye-pleasing contrast. 3. Hope. Flowers bring a feeling of hope that brighter days are ahead. In January, we get our first shipments of Dutch tulips in the shop. When the first delivery arrives, there is a palatable change in the air. Spring is, indeed, just around the bend. Treat yourself to a grand bouquet or pick up a grower’s bunch of ten stems to enjoy. 4. Did you know that scientific studies have shown that plants have a healing effect and positively impact moods? Adding a green plant is a pleasant addition to any home. [...]
