Happy Mother's Day!!!



Our Sweet Mothers…

This Sunday being Mother’s Day, what are your plans for mom’s special day?    Some are close, some mom’s live some distance away and some mothers are no longer with us. We honor them all by keeping and treasuring our memories of our mom’s.

Being a florist we hope you will be sending her a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers or some other equally wonderful choice being offered by your local florist.  We understand some people don't feel that flowers last long enough, but are stance is that you will be creating a lasting memory for your Mom that will be a treasure to her.  She will be honored by such a beautiful & thoughtful gift.

Our greenhouses are full of beautiful blooming bedding and tropical plants.  Choosing a colorful patio planter will allow your mother to show off her front porch or patio when friends or family visit.  She will be telling everyone what a wonderful son or daughter I have.  Mom’s like to brag about their children. 

Another thought for your mom might be to plant or create her a beautiful garden.  Our plants are the best in town and our prices can’t be beat.

As for those of you who have mother’s living outside our delivery area, allow us to send your order to another florist whom we trust.  Avoid Bargain Internet Orders!  Often times they are not a Bargain and may never be delivered.  When you use a florist you will pay a little bit more but at the same time you will get something far more superior.

As your local florist, we can call ahead to know what the other florist is offering that is both beautiful & unique.   Allow us to serve you in this matter so you can avoid any disappointments. 

Morrison Floral Co. has been serving the local Oklahoma City Metro now for over 65 years. We are a full service florist and greenhouse. We strive to go a step above in our service and our quality.  Our hours are 8 AM to 5:30 PM, Monday thru Saturday.  We are happy to take your order over the phone and you are always welcome to stop in and pick out something from our shop.  We carry full lines of giftware, including candles, aprons, silk flowers, home décor, pottery, glassware and much more.

In any case, we hope that when you are thinking of Mom this year that you will call Morrison’s for your floral needs. Order her something special Today!!!


To Every Mother, Happy Mother’s Day!!!

Clever Container Gardens...

Some Clever Container Ideas…

So with spring here and everyone is in the mood for planting their gardens, I thought that I would share with you some clever ideas for container gardens. This year I opted not to plant but just a few things in the ground. I chose to do my gardening in containers.
 
What I did is scoured estate sales and yard sales for different containers to plant in, I didn’t spend more than three dollars for each container. My favorite one is a large urn that had a broken edge on one side and I really didn’t care that it was broken since the plants will cover it plus I only paid a dollar for it! Woo Hoo love me a bargain…

Since I love dark red, I painted everything a deep red then went over it with a lite coat of black to make it look aged, a couple of things I used I got for free. My next project is the brick wall space between my front windows. I want to find a small wooden pallet and hang it on the wall space and do my additional plants between the slats.

Of course, I bought all my plants here at Morrison’s, since we have some of the best quality plants in town! I know, I have been out and looked at some of the big box stores and seen what they are selling. The thing about what we do here is, we receive our plants in late January, then we tend to them every day, watering, fertilizing and just basic maintaining till they are ready for sale in mid-April.


With the weather acting as it has over the last month most people have been holding off on planting their gardens till now, so when you are ready to buy all your plants go check out the competition and see what they are selling, then compare to what we are selling and I know that you will see the difference.
 
Too everyone! Happy gardening and remember to share your garden photos with us here at Morrison’s, we love to see what you have done, we will post thaat you share with us on our Facebook page… Just email us your pictures.

Thanks,
Jac


 

Yes I have a 5 foot pink Flamingo in my front yard.. LOL
The large urn is my favorite container.
 
Just a selection of containers
 
This is what I am going to do on my brick wall
 
 
This is neat, it's an old magazine rack
 
This little bike sure is clever
 
Purses? Who would have ever thought that these would
look darling? We can even see these going down the aisle
at a wedding
 
This is a cool idea too for your front porch.
Use an old desk
 
How about old boots and shoes?
 
I love the use of the old makeup case. The reflection of
the plants is cool
 
 
Using colorful buckets
 
 
I am sure that you can come up with some clever ideas yourself. So go out hunting for different and unusual things to use this year…
