All About Flowers – Our Blog | Flora2000.com

Some things go together naturally, like bees and honey, caviar and wine, fruits and flowers. The last, besides being pleasingly alliterative, brings to mind delectable colors, scents and flavours.

Fruits and flowers make an unbeatable combination. A beautiful centerpiece with a colorful mix of perfectly ripened fruits set off with elegant and delicate flowers, can be an inviting beginning to a wonderful evening of conversation and laughter.

At the Women’s Day celebration at Azok, Flora2000’s incredible and edible arrangements made quite an impression on the sparkling attendees. Co hosted by Nisha Jhaveri of Myrah Spa and Lucky Morani of the restaurant, the soiree’s guest list included the likes of Isha Koppikar, Aarti Surendranath and Maria Goretti.

Our beautiful centerpieces and adorable napkin rings were crafted from fine flowers and delicious, succulent fruits and berries. It was an evening dedicated to, and in celebration of, the empowerment of women, where our elegant decor featuring orchids, cherry tomatoes, orange berries and star fruits set the scene.

It’s tulip time! It’s tulip time! Yes, tulips now fill the markets and it’s time for you to fill your home with these springtime beauties. “Wait a minute”, you say. “Those flowers in the photograph aren’t tulips”. Yes, these gorgeous striped blooms are tulips. Each petal has been carefully re-flexed to give the flower a fresh look – almost like a poppy but much more long-lasting. If you want to try this, buy your favorite fresh tulips. Enjoy them for a day or two and then pop the petals back. It’s important to wait for the flowers to age slightly. Too fresh and the petal will crack. Which of course, begs the question: Can flowers be too fresh? No, you just enjoy them as they age and then they are just right!

The birds around me hopped and played,
Their thoughts I cannot measure:-
But the least motion which they made
It seemed a thrill of pleasure.
– Wordsworth

Spring has sprung! It’s almost March and everyone’s celebrating the gradually lengthening days. The snow has thawed, giving way to small green tufts and tiny flowers. Pour a glass of champagne and raise a toast to the sounds, scents and new life that Spring has brought with it.

‘Linda’ from the David Beahm New York Collection is the perfect Spring arrangement. Cheerful yellow sunflowers and flashes of cobalt blue hydrangeas spill out of a chic white holder, exuding charm and cheer. What  better way than this to hail in spring after a long chilling winter!

The finest restaurants know all the secrets; high quality butter, extra virgin olive oil, fine sea salt and a beautiful bouquet of flowers on the table. Bring their secrets into your home today. With a quick stop at the grocer and a visit to Flora2000, even the plain and standard family spaghetti dinner will taste better. Plan ahead and make a list – flowers, butter, sea salt and olive oil… all the kitchen necessities.

The sun comes up and it’s out of bed. OK, often it is out of bed before the sun comes up. Where is the coffee? Oh, no! It’s a bad hair day. Does this sound like you? Perk up your day with coffee and flowers. Yes, a little pot of flowers sitting next to the coffee pot is sure to start you off on a good day. I love this baby Oncydium orchid plant. It’s radiating stems exude the random chaos of the morning. Bed head for me and my flowers! Add a bagel (toasted with cream cheese) and you know it will be great day.

Happy daffodil time! Like little rays of sunshine the vibrant yellow daffodil can light up the room. These early spring blooms ask little in return. Just give them a fresh cut and place them in water mixed with flower food. They’ll last a little longer if you keep them away from direct sunlight, heat sources and drafts. But of course, set them where you’ll see them often.
Spring blooms have fleeting beauty. Enjoy them now before they are gone!

Spring is just around the corner. (Thank goodness!) It has been a long, dark and cold winter. Did I say cold? And, snow! Don’t get me started… Give spring a head start by bringing home springtime favorites today. Tulips, paperwhites, daffodils and pussy willow of course! Gather together a bouquet of all your favorites. One or two, three or four, a dozen or more! Chase away winter and welcome spring into your home.

Chocolate, roses and candlelight… Nothing could be more romantic. Add soft music in the background and a glass of champagne…Wow! You’ll make serious points this Valentine’s Day if you gather all the icons of the season. Write a personal note of love and have them delivered. Everyone will be jealous and you’ll be the hero. What are you waiting for?
