Inexpensive Funeral Flowers Can Still Be Beautiful
Within many cultures it is customary to send or bring flowers to a funeral service after a friend or family member has lost a loved one. If financial resources are something you are concerned with there are many cheap funeral flowers. Custom floral arrangements can look beautiful but some designs can get expensive. In some smaller towns, it may be difficult to find a skilled florist.

Individual flowers crafted into a bouquet can be delivered to a funeral home, service or brought to a grave in order to offer your condolences. Even though you can purchase exotic flowers, it is likely that the gesture itself will be enough to show your support for your family and friends.
Inexpensive funeral flowers do not mean that you are giving an inferior product in a time of great importance. Often it is the gesture and that create a lasting impact in the minds of those suffering from a loss. Your friends and family members will appreciate the fact that you are thinking of them. Whether you bring the flowers yourself, or have a professional florist hand deliver them, it is a heartfelt gift.
Cheap Funeral Arrangement Ideas
One way to get the most value, and create cheap funeral flower arrangements is to choose flowers that are cheaper per stem. You can either use one or two flowers throughout the arrangement, or use many flowers. Designing a mixed flower arrangement can break up the monotony of a single type floral bouquet. Sometimes, getting creative with your funeral flower arrangement can be a beautiful way to show your respect.
Some of the possible cheap funeral flowers that can be obtained for a low price are red carnations, which offer volume, color, and texture to the overall bouquet. Another cheap choice is daisies. Daisies come in many varieties and colors like yellow, white, purple, lavender and green.

The most popular one in this price range the the Gentle Thoughts spray. This spray is pictured in whites and pinks on our website, but can be made in many colors. It contains pink carnations with white cushions, plus it has three pink roses in it as well.
Another option for inexpensive standing sprays is the Beautiful Farewell Pink Sympathy Spray. This funeral spray contains pink gerbera daisies, yellow roses, white cushions, yellow snapdragons, and pink larkspur. This is a lovely and thoughtful option when you are wanting funeral flowers for a woman.

Funeral Plants: An Important Alternative to Funeral Flowers
If you are reading this there is a strong chance that you or someone you love is going through a mourning process. In order to help you give your condolences we would like to present you with an idea of not flowers but rather funeral plants.
Showing You Care with Plants for Funerals
Funeral plants are one way that you can show a friend or family member that you care in their time of morning. Like any other gifts that you would give during funerals, plants for funerals are also strong way to bridge the emotional gap when you do not have the appropriate words to say.
These plants can be a great alternative to flowers because they are not clipped so with proper care they can remain alive longer for the family. This serves as a gentle reminder of your personal connection with whoever has experienced a loss in their life. They will know that they are not alone and that you are there to support them through their hardship.
Options for Funeral Plants
If you decide that a sympathy plant is an appropriate plant for a funeral it is important to consider exactly what kind of plant you want to give. We suggest choosing a plant that will have a personal significance to whoever receives it. A peace lily is often a popular choice, but if you think that your friends or family member would prefer a different plant please talk to one of our workers and they can give you other popular options. All of our plants arrive fresh weekly. We hand deliver our green plants, most come in a wicker basket with a piece of curly willow and a butterfly for decoration to match the ribbons.
Other options that are blooming plants. Orchids are a more unique blooming plant and are easier to care for than most people think. They can be purchased singly or added to a plant basket or garden. Plant baskets and blooming gardens are another favorite option to send for funeral plants. They are several plants in one basket and can include green and blooming plants together. They are decorated very nicely. The best part is after the service, family members can separate the plants out and give them to more than one person in remembrance.
Cheap Gift Options for Funerals
Funeral plants are not something that generally breaks the bank. We understand that this is a hardship not only in emotions but depending on your financial situation it could be catastrophic. With this in mind we have made several inexpensive options so that anyone can you give the proper support for those who have lost a loved one.
Beyond simply sympathy plants, we would also like to be your source for any possible floral arrangements that you might need for funeral services as well. Plants for funerals are often overlooked until the service comes. If other things have distracted you before the service, that is okay. We offer expedited delivery and would love to help you honor your loved one, one last time at the funeral service.
Order Your Sympathy Plants Online Easily
In order to find us, type in plants for funeral in any search engine and you will likely see us near the top. All of our products are made from the highest quality flowers and plants. We pride ourselves on being able to provide exceptional customer service at a price that anyone can afford. We believe that the aesthetic impression and quality funeral plants create can be one of the most powerful ways to frame the memories of a lost friend or family member.

Top 6 Guy Tips for an Easy Valentines Day
Valentine’s Day is one of the most important days when it comes to holidays regarding relationships. If you are in a long-term relationship it is likely that to her, this day is almost as important as your anniversary. Valentines Day flowers are almost a must to adhere to the standards of this holiday.
It is usually expected that you will somehow make Valentine’s Day special. Your significant other will likely appreciate any efforts that you put into the special day, but if you’re able to go above and beyond their expectations you will likely make it a day they will remember for the rest of their lives.
Valentines Tip #1 - Think Outside The Box
No matter what you do, try to think outside of the box. It is customary to provide flowers for your significant other, but don’t settle for simply giving them during dinner. Try to have them hand-delivered to their workplace by a professional florist, or better yet by you! The public spectacle will add to the intimacy of the situation and she will will likely appreciate the extra attention that the flowers get from her coworkers.
Valentines Tip #2 - Rose Petals for Romance
Another idea is to create a design with the flowers in addition to their bouquet of roses or other flowers. A bath filled with rose petals can be the perfect tone for a romantic evening in.
Rose petals for Valentines Day can be ordered in three quantities from our store. The small size is good to sprinkle in her bath tub. The medium size is good for the bed. And if you are wanting to create a whole romantic night, the large is perfect for you.
Valentines Tip #3 - Think Ahead, Order Your Flowers Early
Valentine’s Day flowers often go quickly so it might be necessary to place an order a week in advance to ensure that your florist has enough product in stock. In addition, we generally deliver the flowers in the order they were placed so a last minute placed order usually goes last.
Valentines Tip #4 - She Wants You Time and Attention
Flowers for Valentine’s Day are not the only thing you can get or do to win your love’s heart. Cooking an exquisite meal with your significant other can add to the intimate time that you spend together. This can be crafting your favorite meal or trying something different, the goal is not to eat the food, though hopefully it is delicious, but rather to make memories with someone who is it important to you.
Valentines Tip #5 - It’s Not The Size, But The Thought You Put Into It
Valentine’s Day flowers shouldn’t be entirely forgotten. Since flowers are such a major part of the holiday tradition, most women will be looking forward to their bouquet of roses. Don’t risk setting a poor tone for the rest of the night by forgetting the flowers.
Even if you only can afford a single rose, it is the thought that counts more than the size. By saying you didn’t have time, or telling her the florist ran out, she will know you waited until the last minute. Preparation is key to making this Valentine’s Day perfect.
Valentines Day Tip #6 - Opt for Something Besides a Red Rose
Valentine’s Day flowers range from anything from the classic red rose to elegant white lilies. If you know your partner’s favorite flower and can find it in February, it might just make a larger impact than if you had chosen a rose simply because that is what everyone else does. Also choosing blooms from your wedding is a romantic wedding if it is possible.
If you’re not wanting to stray too far from tradition, choosing a rose other than red is always a great option. There are very beautiful colored roses like white, hot pink, and our top seller Malibu roses. Malibu roses are a creme colored rose with a hot pink tip.
We Are Here To Help
Take these tips and apply them with the personal experiences you already have and this year’s Valentine’s Day will be something you remember for many years to come. And remember we are always here to help you out and offer our professional floral opinions.
When you are ready, we offer easy ordering online, by phone, and in person at our Pasadena location.

Senior Homecoming Mums
Graduating high school students have the privilege of being able to get senior Homecoming mums. Homecoming mums, a tradition in Texas high schools, typically have elaborate designs and a lot of colors. There are some designs and colors that can only be worn by high school seniors, though even they can deviate from these prescribed designs if they choose to.
A Brief History of Homecoming Mums
Homecoming mums are a tradition unique to Texas high schools. Today, mums are typically large and elaborate mums. However, before these mums came into existence, students used to exchange and wear simpler chrysanthemum corsages to celebrate Homecoming. Over the next few decades, these corsages developed into the ornate mums we see today. Homecoming mums can be pinned on clothes as boutonnieres, usually for girls. Mums can also be hung from the neck if they're too heavy to pin, or can be slung over the shoulder. Mums for boys, meanwhile, are worn on a garter around the arm.
Usual Colors
Homecoming mums for seniors are special. These mums are the last ones that you'll be able to wear in high school. Because of this, there are certain color combinations that are set aside only for seniors.
These mums are mostly a little more understated and elegant than their counterparts. They come in one to two colors, usually a combination of white, black, silver, or gold. These are the prescribed colors for senior Homecoming mums, which set graduating seniors apart from the rest of the student population.
Decorations for Senior Mums
Though senior mums are meant to make their wearers distinct from the majority of the students, decorations are still pretty much the same as other Homecoming mums. You will still have the usual braids, chains, boas, ribbons, toys, and trinkets. The only difference is that you can now use color combinations typically reserved for graduating high school seniors.
Of course, color is not the only way to have your Homecoming mums signify that you are a high school senior. You can also have decorations that spell out the word “senior” on your mums. You can use letters coated with glitter or studded with rhinestones. If you want a glitzy, glamorous mum for your last year in high school, you can choose fabric mums that have a metallic finish.
Express Yourself in Silver and White
Maybe you still want to express some school spirit without having to deviate from the prescribed color combinations for Homecoming mums for seniors. If this is the case, you can choose trinkets shaped like footballs or jerseys. You can also include letters that spell out “Go Team!” or attach a stuffed toy that looks like your school mascot. Other decorations can pay tribute to your interests or hobbies, like dance, music, science, or math.
Since this is your final year at high school, it's important to make great memories. It is also important to have great mementos of your high school life. Senior Homecoming mums make great mementos that will remind you of all the good times you had in high school.

Common Questions When Ordering Christmas Centerpieces
Creating the floral arrangements for a professional, business, social, or family gathering is an important task that requires a fine attention to detail. Christmas centerpieces often are placed in the middle of a table during an important dinner or a prominent location in order to add to the aesthetic appeal of whatever you’re trying to host.
What is Popular for Christmas Centerpieces?
Traditional centerpieces for Christmas often consist of blossoms that create an overall color scheme of red, white, and green. Though it is easily known that red and green are the traditional colors for Christmas, many people overlook white if they’re designing their own bouquet. If your management is looking off perhaps a bit of white to symbolize the snow and the weather of winter will help complete its look.
White lilies are one of several types of flowers that a florist may use to create the snowy aspect of a Christmas centerpiece. They’re elegant curves in long narrow blossom is paired well with the round intricate folds of a red rose and helps to provide a look of grace and dignity. Though white lilies are considered an exotic flower they can be obtained from most florists at a relatively inexpensive price.
What If I Don’t Want Red Roses in my Christmas Centerpiece?
Red roses are perhaps one of the most common flowers known to man. They symbolize romance as well as wealth as they are often associated with a high-value. The latest true that some roses can be pricey, it is not hard to find inexpensive alternatives such as red tulips or red carnations to help add to the crimson appeal that is required in the traditional Christmas color scheme.
A professional florist, such as our floral designers at Enchanted Florist can complete custom centerpieces for Christmas in your choice of colors. Floral arranging is an art form, not simply sticking a bunch of flowers into a vase and calling it a day. A florist will be able to know through time and experience what designs will elicit certain emotions. Our professional floral designers know the subtle differences between using long and short stems as well as possible connotations of the flowers themselves.
Though creating your own centerpiece is an excellent way to save money, if you need them done in a timely manner it is often better to contract the work with a local florist. Searching for the flowers, vase, ribbons or any other decorative elements yourself can be very time consuming. As a florist, we run our entire business on giving quality products so we will have everything needed to create your centerpiece on-site.

December Flower Spotlight: The Amaryllis
We are always getting questions from clients about different flowers and plants, how to take care of them, when are the available, what colors do they come in. From these questions we started our Monthly Flower Spotlight as a way to highlight flowers we get questions about and bring attention to underutilized or little known flowers and plants.
This month’s flower spotlight is the amaryllis. Despite being commonly considered a Christmas flower, the amaryllis frequently blooms in March. It's known by many times; belladonna lily, Jersey lily, Easter lily, and even naked lady.
The Legend of the Amaryllis
Legends say that the amaryllis began as a “shy, timid nymph”. She fell in love with Alteo, a strong and beautiful shepherd, but her affections were not returned. In an attempt to earn Alteo's love, she consulted an oracle, gave of herself to gift him with a beautiful flower born of her blood. Alteo was moved by the gesture, and fell in love with Amaryllis, who was then healed. Thus, the flower we know today was formed, and has come to stand as a symbol of pride and radiant beauty. In Greek, the word amaryllis means “to sparkle”, and they're also sometimes called “knight star”.
The Origination of the Amaryllis
The amaryllis originated in South Africa and South America. It's petals are frequently white and crimson, but pink, purple, red, and even orange blooms are also common and naturally occurring. They tend to bloom in early spring or late summer, but are frequently forced into bloom for the Christmas season. They can be grown from seeds, but can take more than five years to produce flowers. Once you have a fully grown plant, however, they can last more than fifty years if it's properly cared for.
Here are some more really interesting facts about the amaryllis:
- Its blooms attract carpenter bees and moths, which are responsible for pollination.
- More than ten million bulbs are imported and sold in the United States every year.
- Materials within the plant have been used in the treatment of Alzheimer's.
Using Amaryllis at our Pasadena Flower Shop
During the Christmas season, we use amaryllis for many of our bouquets, Christmas centerpieces, and plant baskets. The deep red ones look regal in the larger centerpieces with pillar candles and other Christmas flowers. In vase bouquets, the peppermint colored ones are stunning. We are even able to use the potted amaryllis in plant gardens, making great Christmas gifts.
As you can see, there are many interesting facts about the Amaryllis. If you'd like to learn more, contact Enchanted Florist today and let us tell you all about December's spotlight flower.

Clear Brook High School Homecoming Mums
Clear Brook High School Homecoming mums are a part of a Texan homecoming tradition. Mum boutonnieres are a unique homecoming tradition, and Enchanted Florist is your go-to place for your homecoming mum needs. Enchanted Florist caters to students from 18 high schools in the area and can supply well-designed and customizable mums.
A Homecoming Tradition
The tradition of having mum boutonnieres at Texas homecoming celebrations began several decades ago, though it didn't start with the large-scale mums we know today. Originally, students exchanged simpler and smaller chrysanthemum corsages to wear on Homecoming.

Celebrating National Poinsettia Day on December 12th
Poinsettias has been admired by many people since its discovery. Who wouldn’t want it? Its vibrant red color and wide leaves that serve as its petal beguiles anyone who would dare to stare at its beauty.
Poinsettias and Their Folklore
It is believed that a red poinsettia was the symbol of how early gods sacrificed their lives to make the universe. Hence its color, red was the blood of gods that served as debt for humans, to be repaid by their own blood. On the other hand, poinsettia has been used by the Aztecs to relieve fever, with its sap, and its leaves for dye.
Going back to early days, legends were told about how the alluring poinsettia was created. A famous tale was about the poor little girl who cried when she wasn’t able to give a gift to baby Jesus. Then came an angel and asked her to get a bunch of weeds. The girl’s tears rolled on the weeds and turned it to vibrant red of Poinsettia. Meanwhile, there are more tales in Mexico of how this poinsettia was created and some of which were inspired by Christianity.
The History of the Modern Poinsettia
How the modern poinsettia was discovered has never been a secret. Joel Roberts Poinsett, the New Republic of Mexico’s first Ambassador, found the bold plant in Taxco and picked a few of them, then set off for Charleston South Carolina. This man was a botany enthusiast, and when he got back to the states, he introduced the plant to everyone. Hence, the name was taken from the man in remembrance of his discovery.
This plant is known as poinsettia pulcherrima on the present day. The famous celebration of Poinsettia Day is every 12th of December. Coincidentally, the same date was when Joel Roberts Poinsett died. In America, the day is remembered for the beauty and discovery of Poinsettia as it is a sign that Christmas season is upon us.
The Botany of it All
Scientifically, poinsettias belong to the family of the shrub. In Mexico, the poinsettia was early believed to be a weed. Everyone would think that its physical makeup is a flower, but the vibrant Poinsettia is leaves. These are bracts composing the alluring bunch and are matured at red color after some time of cultivation.
Poinsettias have more than 100 varieties and the most popular form of which are the red ones. This euphorbia also comes with peach, yellow, salmon, pink, white and purple. Today, it is widely cultivated by the Ecke family, with their farm in California, and supplying the majority of flower shops in America. Their business has also ventured on sending Poinsettia to foreign countries in Europe.
Is the Poinsettia Poisonous?
On the other hand, Poinsettia’s toxicity was studied in Ohio State University. It was found that the plant cannot cause death, but consumption of which will cause diarrhea and vomiting. Its leaves do not taste good (bitter), and its sap can cause allergic reactions such as skin irritation. So be sure to keep your kids from hanging around with its sap and bracts.
Hence, the poinsettia is a famous symbol of Christmas and gets a lot of attention from flower shops before the holiday. Other people are getting enrapt with cultivation of the poinsettia and doing a homegrown variety for its celebration and decoration of the Christmas season.

The Simplicity of Ordering Flowers for Delivery to Bellaire
For those looking for a Bellaire flower shop it is important to consider several different aspects of the business. Remember you get what you pay for, and cheapest is not always the best option. Inferior flowers or poor customer service could really hurt your flower delivery. The Bellaire florist you choose should offer great value, high quality flowers, and excellent customer service so that you do not have to worry about your beautiful flowers getting to their destination in perfect shape and on time.
Where Do I Order My Flowers for Bellaire TX
Making an order often has two different paths, the first and perhaps the easiest is to navigate to inappropriate website and see if they accept custom orders online or if they have a phone number that you can call. Even though you may not know the exact kind of flowers that you are looking for anyone working at a reputable florist will be able to make suggestions based off of the appropriate circumstances or why you are giving a gift.
For example you would not want to send a bouquet that has been crafted to give romantic notes to a professional colleague as it may come across as unprofessional. A Bellaire flower shop will be able to choose the appropriate flowers to convey your gratitude for the proper occasion. This value alone can cover any additional costs behind what you would spend if you were to need to correct any mistakes later. Though many major retailers offer flowers, the value you get from a florist more than justifies any additional cost.
Check Out a Real Flower Shop
If you happen to call or go into a Bellaire florist in person, you will be able to see a large variety of the display floral arrangements as well as have the chance to talk to a professional floral designer. By explaining your situation to the floral designer, they will be able to guide you to the types of flowers that would make the most impact as well as be able to give you suggestions to stay inside your budget.
Be wary of ordering flowers from corporations who only serve as the middleman. They take your order not knowing anything about what flowers are in season and available in Texas, then turn around and sale the order to a real flower shop to fill your order. So even if you pay the middleman $100 for your order, in all reality when the flower shop gets the order it will be around $50-$65 for the flower bouquet.
Flower Shop Culture
The culture around florists is one of sympathy, emotion, and kindness. You do not need to worry about being treated like you are at a used car dealership even if you come into our store in person.
One added benefit by going through a real florist is that they offer same day and next day delivery services so that you do not have to worry about going across town with a large bouquet of flowers or the hassle of trying to get them there in one piece. Sometimes it is not necessary for you to attend at all such as if you were sending flowers to someone that you do not have a strong personal relationship with but still want to offer your respects for whatever situation they are experiencing.
Order Flowers Easily from Your Bellaire Flower Shop
Bellaire is a quaint little sleeper town tucked into the middle of Houston and we at Enchanted Florist offer daily delivery to all businesses and residences in Bellaire, TX including all Bellaire funeral homes. We will create something beautiful for you that your loved one will surely appreciate.

The Most Loving Beautiful Gift, Three Dozen Roses
Roses are one of the most traditional ways to display your affection for someone that you love or are romantically interested in. The rose’s beauty signifies how much the person in your life means to you, and can bring a smile to anyone’s face. Well there are many different arrangements one can buy, a single stem or a vase filled with 3 dozen roses. This creates a bit more complexity to the art of giving such a wonderful gift.
A Bed of Thorns
If you gifting three dozen roses, that is a lot of thorns to consider. While removing the thorns may be a safer option many people believe that leaving the thorns symbolizes that you are accepting who ever you are giving the gift to as who they are rather than trying to mold them into something that you want. Many people will not notice if the thorns are left on though some may realize that you had altered the flower if they are trimmed.
A floral arrangement can range from one, two, or three dozen roses all the way up to a vase filled with a hundred. More is not always better and it is important to consider what other flowers or stems are being added to the overall arrangement, especially when 3 dozen roses is already a lot.
36 Roses and Your Budding Relationship
A gift should fit the context of your relationship so it would not be wise to send 3 dozen red roses to someone you have had a single date with. A bigger gift like this is better suited for a special occasion or a day of significant importance. A more modest red rose delivery would generally be better for a spur of the moment idea simply to let your partner know that you are thinking of them.
Another item to consider is that large floral arrangements can it be unwieldy and difficult to transport. It is best to purchase these if they are going to stay at whatever location you want them delivered to. We are setup to deliver large, beautiful bouquets while your sweetheart may not be able to safely bring home her 3 dozen roses in one piece.
Beautiful Three Dozen Roses Delivery Options
In addition to the roses themselves is skilled florist can offer red rose delivery in their area. At Enchanted Florist, we offer an excellent service that allows you to place your order online or over the phone and we will complete your roses delivery Houston to your satisfaction.
Our professional delivery drivers will take your flowers to a workplace, home, or school so that you can surprise whomever you want with a luscious gift of roses.
Sometimes the public display of affection is more important in the mind of the receiver then the roses themselves. Imagine the look of your significant other's face when they are presented with three dozen roses in the middle of their workday. Colleagues will be envious about the gift for days to come.
Whether is the occasion is a first date, Valentine’s Day, or an anniversary, beautiful roses are one of the best and safest ways to show your affection. The display of passion and wealth in their crisp, crimson blossoms is unparalleled in the world of floral arrangements.

Tis the Season for Delivering Festive Christmas Floral Arrangements
Christmas floral arrangements are a wonderful way to provide a gift in a professional manner. They are great if you want to send something to a colleague, professional acquaintance, employee, or for your boss. If you want to make a greater impact than simply sending a Christmas card, a professional bouquet can really help you stand out among all the other gifts this season.
Picking a Container for Your Christmas Flower Bouquet
Holiday Christmas bouquets come in a variety of price ranges and we have something to fit every budget. Many can include real flowers, as well as a vase and accents like ribbon, ornaments and other Christmas decorations, though the individual designs of the bouquet may vary. Since Christmas flower arrangements are created during the season it may be hard to find premade bouquets in the area that do not predominantly celebrate the holiday. We can create something for you for as little as $25 all the way up to $500. We can even provide the loose flowers for you if you would like to design the bouquets yourself.
In order to create your own eye-catching Christmas flower arrangements, first you must choose a vase for your bouquet. You can always go with a simple clear vase that is inexpensive so that the majority of your budget can be spent on the flowers. Another option is to choose a decorative and festive Christmas keepsake vase that the recipient can keep and enjoy for many years to come. Either way you would want it is to be pretty as well as durable and easy to clean. Keeping the water and vase clean is the secret to long lasting flower bouquets.
What Color Should Your Holiday Bouquet Be?
Though there are many different flowers that somebody may use to create their arrangement, it is safe to use red, green, and white blossoms in order to maintain a theme that fits with the traditional Christmas holiday. The most common red flower is a red rose. The elegant blossom of a rose can signify poise or romance depending on who is receiving the gift. Though predominantly red, you also can find them in white as well as many other colors.
If you are on a budget, red tulips can be substituted in place of red roses. Since the Christmas theme is the most important part of the bouquet it is important to stay with traditional colors otherwise the message maybe lost. Another type of flower that can be used in holiday Christmas bouquets are green spiders as well as white Oriental lilies. Both offer a beautiful addition and serve as a background to whatever crimson blossom you have chosen for the bouquet.
