Oh, how sweet it is to welcome in Spring and say “Goodbye” to winter, which was not snow sweet this year! Spring brings many reasons to celebrate. The Easter Bunny kicks things off by bringing Easter baskets. FruitFlowers® makes the kind of Easter basket children and adults can enjoy! These Easter baskets are filled with colorful, sweet, freshly cut fruit flowers. What? That’s right! Strawberry “tulips” and pineapple “daisies” are some of what make these baskets the neatest gift in town for this Easter, April 4th.
If you’re having guests over for Easter dinner, or if you’ve been invited to someone else’s home, consider taking a unique Easter basket of goodies from FruitFlowers®. If delicious fresh fruit flowers are not enough and chocolate is simply a must-have for Easter, then add chocolate dipped strawberries/apple wedges to any FruitFlowers® Easter Basket, making it even more scrumptious! Let’s face it; nothing goes better with strawberries than chocolate! Who wouldn’t want a healthy, beautiful and tasty alternative to the traditional Easter basket?
Spring training begins as we await the boys of summer and the excitement of baseball to return. Fruit, fruit, fruit for the home team by hitting a home run; send the “Out of the Park®” to your favorite little league coach or to the Phillies fan or Blue Rocks fan in your life! Why? Why not?
A few more occasions we celebrate during spring are Administrative Professionals Week, April 18th-24th, Teacher Appreciation Week is May 2nd-8th, and Nurses Week May 6th-12th. What would tell the berry special assistant, teacher or nurse just how unique and incredible you think they are? A bouquet of FruitFlowers®, full of color and beauty, they smell exquisitely sweet, and taste juicy and delicious. These are bouquets of flowers made from freshly cut fruits including strawberries, pineapple, grapes, cantaloupe, honeydew and kiwi. Lucky recipients go crazy for them.
As spring continues into May, we get to celebrate our Moms on May 9th!! Rather than the usual bouquet of roses on Mother’s Day, FruitFlowers® bouquets are the perfect choice this year. FruitFlowers® baskets are the sweetest treat for Mom – delicious, healthy and beautiful, a creative alternative to flowers!
At the end of May we celebrate Memorial Day, Monday May 31st. If your day of observance involves food, don’t forget the sweet, juicy fruit! The bouquet most people are clamoring to get their hands on at this time of year is the Berry Patriotic®. Bring the fireworks to your celebration. This delicious arrangement, contains sweet, juicy strawberries, bursting with blueberry and marshmallow “sparklers”, and will have you seeing stars (pineapple stars)!
So, whether you are celebrating a holiday or an every day life event, such as a birthday or anniversary, sending get well wishes or conveying condolences, saying “congratulations” or “I’m Sorry”, FruitFlowers® is the sweetest choice! When someone deserves the berry, berry best, send FruitFlowers®.
