Flower Baskets
Are flower baskets a good alternative to typical gift baskets?
Flower baskets are a great alternative to typical gift baskets. Though gift baskets make for a nice gift, it isn’t always easy to be aware of your loved one’s new or developing allergies, their ever-changing preferences, or if they have cut out certain foods or drinks from their daily intake. Ordering a flower basket is a safe bet when it comes to placing a thoughtful, elegant, memorable flower delivery order.
Is it possible to water a flower basket?
Yes, it is possible to water a flower basket, and it is highly recommended, too. When you receive vases of housewarming flowers or thank you flowers, it is extremely easy to see if the vase is running low on water. But with flower baskets, it can be a little more difficult, but not by much. All you have to do is check to see if the soil or the floral foam is dry. If it is, that means it is time to give your floral babies some water. If the soil or foam is still moist, give it a day or two before giving them another healthy drink of water.
Can I keep my flower basket delivery indoors or outdoors?
Depending on which flower basket you pick, you can keep them indoors or outdoors. If you have chosen more delicate flowers, you will want to keep them inside and out of direct, hot, sunlight. If you have chosen a heartier, more plant-based basket, and if the outdoor climate is mild, you can keep your flower basket outside. Do your best to use your best judgement to decide which flowers should be kept in a climate-controlled home, and which can be more exposed to the elements.
