International Women’s Day is an international observance that’s occurred for more than a century – always on March 8. Port Charlotte Florist is proud to join in this global campaign to #PressforProgress, but more importantly, to recognize the accomplishments and tireless efforts of women in our own backyard — our local community.

We all come into contact with women who manage everything at our workplaces, in our homes, and every place we gather, whether it’s a medical office, a supermarket, a church, a town meeting, or our dinner tables. How often do we stop to thank them, acknowledge their efforts, praise their accomplishments, or stand in solidarity with them? Our Sweet Devotion Bouquet combines a variety of show-stopping blooms in assorted shades of purple. Purple is an appropriate color for honoring women on International Women’s Day because it is the color of royalty. Pale lavender roses and fragrant stock in purple and lavender with accents of statice and other flowers convey a feeling of admiration, which is what a gift of gratitude should suggest.

International Women’s Day is a day for recognizing the unsung heroes in our lives because we take them and everything they do to improve the quality of our lives at home, at work, and everywhere they go, for granted. Let our creative floral designers here at Port Charlotte Florist help you choose a floral arrangement or customize one to celebrate, honor and recognize the forgotten achievements of women who improve the quality of our lives on a daily basis.
