Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I like your flowers but sometimes I want tulips, roses and beautiful scented lilies. Should your flowers replace fresh cut?
A: The $10B US floral industry is growing at 3-4% per year. and most flower shops report healthy sales and growth.
Fresh cut flowers are a celebration of the seasons, sunflowers in Fall, tulips and daffodils in Spring. Some brides prefer specific flowers for their bouquets that aren't long lasting and for one-day events, fresh cut flowers are well suited. However, many also like centerpieces that are long-lasting for people to take home and enjoy after the event. That's why we offer a full range of options for events and occasions. We also offer a full range of corporate services.
Real Flowers Every Day is a growing niche segment in the larger floral business that gives people more options for real flowers in everyday life in at home or work.
Q: Why did you enter this field?
A: With 66% of us feeling better "instantly" after receiving flowers, they are a great way to improve our mood in a healthy way. Flowers are also social in nature. When asking about one's day, people readily tell others "I got flowers" and display them. Flowers invite conversation among strangers and provide a safe topic to engage in.
The #1 reason we don't buy flowers more often, is "they die too quickly" followed by "they are too expensive". By reducing or eliminating these barriers, we aim to grow the larger floral category.
