Morrison Floral Company Blog: The Perfect Time of the year...

Ahhh Spring is here… It is that time of the year for Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday. With these holidays here we are not only celebrating the joy of Easter but we are very busy in the flower shop. We have so many orders for beautiful Easter arrangements, palm arrangements, palm leaves and the wonderful smell of Easter Lily’s.

Our greenhouse is bursting full of blooming plants and they are all ready for you to pick up and plant in your gardens. We have many new varieties of plants this year and 20 different colors and varieties of geraniums alone. Now is the perfect time to plant. With the weather finally turning around and that bitterly, nasty cold winter we had, we can’t wait to get outside and start planting our own gardens.

Now is also the time to start your ideas for the kiddo’s in your life, may they be your own children or your grandchildren. So after you spend an extraordinary time at church rejoicing in Easter Sunday, we have gathered some additional ideas about Easter egg hunts and while you’re at it why don’t you plan something for the adults this year?

We have gathered several ideas for you, to keep the kids and adults active on Sunday. For starters, for the children here’s a great idea. Instead of just coloring plain eggs, why don’t you get some the plastic eggs and not only fill them with candies, but also put little rewards inside so that the children have something to last all year long. Give them, points that they can redeem on a special toy they want, or maybe it’s something to use during the hot summer like a “summer splash” at a theme park. These are just a couple of ideas and you can expand on them with whatever you choose.

As for the adults, have a scavenger hunt. This can be a lot of fun and entertaining; you can either create your own clues or find them online. Plan this around your home, in a park or anywhere that you have extra space to spread out.

The clues can be as simple as where does the postman leave mail? Sounds silly but it’s just an idea. Here’s another one, if you’re on your own property get everyone to use the GPS in their cell phones to hunt for where clues are and to where the next clue is located. You can come up with your own ideas. Make the final prize something special like extra cash, or a box filled with candy, and or maybe tickets to a concert, use your imagination…

With these ideas you can expand on them and make them your own. Back to our shop, we have several spring wreaths to decorate your front door, we also custom make them for you, we have beautiful spring arrangements to liven up your indoors and lots of other Easter goodies.

Remember to stop in soon and pick up your spring bedding plants, we have over 30,000 sq feet of greenhouses with lots to pick from and you won’t bet the prices or quality of products that you would get at your local “big box store” our’ plants are tended daily by professional horticulturist, these horticulturist are always here to answer any of your questions you have about plants, planting or anything else pertaining your garden.

We look forward to seeing you soon…
