The Proflower Difference
What makes flowers from Proflower.com stand out? Proflowers sends you flowers straight from the field, which guarantees freshness. Other online florists send the orders to your local florists, who fills the order. The flowers there came from a wholesaler, and then have been sitting in the florists cooler for several days. Flowers ordered from your local florist or other online florists could be weeks old. Flowers from Proflowers will last longer.
While the flowers may last longer, there is one important thing to remember. Flowers that come straight from the field will most likely arrive in bud form. This means that the flowers or blossoms, will be closed and tight, and it will take a few days for them to open up. So it is important that you order the flowers a little bit early, and then take care to put them in warm water with the flower preservative that came with them. The combination of warm water and flower preservative will help the flowers open up and be in their most beautiful stage.
And as the flowers will come delivered in a box, they may need a little help being arranged. If you do ever happen to receive a flowers that aren't quite arranged, ProFlowers offers some helpful tips. This video shows you how to assemble your flowers in a vase.
The important things to remember are: remove outside petals on roses, cut the stems at an angle with a sharp knife or flower cutters, and add flower preservative to the water. The flower preservative is found in a small packet with the flowers. Removing the outside petals of roses is easy. They are tougher than the inside, and often times are a bit bruised or torn, so they are easily identifiable. Just gently pull them down and break them off.
In addition to flowers, Proflowers.com offers a wide variety of gifts and sweets. Shop at ProFlowers and find it all in one place! Enjoy flowers longer from Proflowers.com.

Sympathy Flowers
What are sympathy flowers and why should you send sympathy flowers? Sympathy flowers are flowers sent at the time of death of a loved one, friend or acquaintance. Flowers are sent to the family of the deceased for a number of reasons. One reason is to honor the deceased. Another reason is to comfort the living. During the time of loss, it can be hard to find the right words of comfort, sending flowers to a grieving family shows that they are being thought about and shows the care of the one sending the flowers.
Fresh flowers are ideal for sympathy flowers. Fresh flowers are fragrant, cheerful and beautiful, they will help cheer up the bereaved. Flowers can be sent through a florist to the funeral home or directly to the family’s home. Flowers can be sent at any time, either for the funeral or to the family afterwards to offer continuing comfort.
There are many options for fresh flower arrangements to send for a funeral. There are easel designs and set pieces. An easel design is used as tribute to be placed near the casket during the funeral services. Easel designs are usually in the form of a spray, or one-sided design without a container. A set piece is a flower arrangement formed in a specific shape. Crosses, hearts, and wreaths are examples of set pieces.
