Happy, Healthy New You

The start of a New Year is a great time to think about creating a happy, healthy new you. For this new year, the floral experts at Port Charlotte Florist suggest adding flowers to your daily life. Here’s why: Flowers reduce stress. The color green, and leafy green plants and flowers in particular, has been shown to lower levels of stress and anxiety in people who are near them or see them on a regular basis. Place flowers with leafy greens near you while you work for a calmer environment. Flowers boost creativity. Gazing at bright colors can often lead to more creative thought. Surround yourself with your favorite flowers in your favorite colors to expand your thinking and open your mind to new possibilities. Flowers help you breathe easier. Plants and flowers are known to purify the air around them. Surround yourself with flowers for cleaner air and easier breathing. Read More about Happy, Healthy New You »

Holiday Floral Ceremonies

The holidays are meant to be a time of merriment, joy and festivity, but for families of fallen veterans, this can be a very difficult time. The vacancy left from a loved one's absence is incredibly loud and obvious, especially at the holidays. One way to create a new memory in their honor is by participating in a wreath-laying ceremony like those at Arlington National Cemetery. The Wreaths Across America program promotes placing wreaths on the grave sites of fallen veterans and service men and women during the holiday season. The floral designers at Port Charlotte Florist have a gorgeous collection of beautiful wreaths you can choose for your very own wreath-laying ceremony. Read More about Holiday Floral Ceremonies »
