Beyond The Flowers: Other Gifts From Online Florists

By Lizbeth Nathaniel


It's fairly obvious that your local San Clemente flower shop or Dana Point florist offers its customers a wide assortment of floral arrangements to suit any occasion. While people love receiving a beautiful bouquet, there are actually a few other interesting gift options that many florists offer, and all you have to do is go online and order. Here are a few examples.

For a whimsical gift or perhaps a gift for a child or a teen, rather than surprise them with a bouquet of flowers, why not opt for a bunch of balloons instead. These balloon bouquets are available to suit occasions such as birthdays, graduations and other important event. Sometimes your Oceanside florist also can pair this up with flowers or perhaps a stuffed animal.

If you want to be more generous in your gifts, check out what florists' online services offer and you will come across gift baskets for sure. Now these are the gifts that can be best to give as housewarming or corporate gifts. People in new homes may not be as keen at preparing meals as they are busy unpacking and arranging their home, thus a basket full of treats from you can be handy for them to have.

If the gift recipient is quite health conscious, consider sending a beautiful basket filled with the freshest fruit. This might be items such as pineapples, pears, bananas, apples and grapes. Some of these fruit baskets also include crackers and different types of cheeses. Of course, if you want to be indulgent, consider purchasing a chocolate-lover's gift basket or a basket filled with cookies and other sweet treats.

There are also quirky themed baskets to suit many different types of people. For example, perhaps your recipient loves baseball, some florists offer a deluxe baseball basket filled with interesting tidbits such as peanuts, Cracker Jack and gourmet root beer. If your friend loves specialty teas or coffee, consider getting a basket filled with these treats. We saw one online florist that offers a tea basket with several types of gourmet tea as well as a pretty ceramic pot.

Of course, sometimes you might really want to send flowers but your friend or relative is allergic to many different types of flowers. To ensure that you do not aggravate any allergies, consider sending them a live plant instead. Most florists offer many different types of plants and some have flowers that don't tend to cause sniffling and sneezing. There are also contemporary choices to consider, such as a pretty bamboo plant or perhaps a bonsai tree.
