HOW TO TELL THE REAL FLORISTS FROM THE WEEDS

Local Indianapolis Florist Offers Shopping Tips for Valentine’s Day, Sunday February 14th.

Before you order a picture... but really get sent a puzzle,












What you see isn't always what you'll get.

Looking for the perfect rose arrangement to send your sweetheart this Valentine's Day? Before you hit the 'buy' button, stop and read the entire product description or you may be in for a surprising disappointment.
Instead of sending an impressive, professionally designed, hand delivered vase of romantic roses that's the envy of the office, you might be buying a cardboard-wrapped grower's bunch delivered in a box - a gift that requires your own special Valentine to clean, condition, recut and arrange it.
When no one's home, these FedEx, UPS and DHL delivered flowers may be left at the door despite February's below-freezing temperatures in most of the US. And, with Valentine’s on a Sunday this year, local florists will be open to service you unlike the large drop shipping companies.

For the freshest presentation of roses this Valentine's Day, trust your local florist to professionally arrange and personally deliver not only roses, but a wide variety of romantic flowers like tulips, orchids and liles to delight that very special someone.
Buy direct from your local florist and save . Why pay on average extra $10 - $25 to a wire service broker or middle man when there are so many great professional florists ready to assist you directly and tell you about their special services and featured holiday designs? They'll be able to tell you about the Real flowers they have in their Real flower shops, not just show you photos of arrangements and then pass your order along to another company with the hope it can be made 'sort-of' like the picture.

For additional information about the benefits of buying direct from your local florist, contact Steve Huth, Steve’s Flowers and Gifts, 317-787-3431, or e-mail Steve at steve.huth@att.net. Order online, by phone or in person but know how to tell the real florists from the weeds.
