Mother’s Day Giveaway – $50 to ProFlowers.com

April 27, 2011 By

For many people, the Mother’s Day holiday means sending flowers, and ProFlowers has absolutely amazing bouquets of Mother’s Day Flowers, as well as plants, bulbs, wreaths, and more. ProFlowers has a network of local florists ready to deliver fresh flowers right to your door (or Mom’s door)!

I was thrilled when ProFlowers asked me to review an item from their site. I picked the  Deluxe All the Frills bouquet, which comes with 7 light pink roses, 5 dark pink roses, 4 pink alstroemeria, 3 green Anastasia mums, and 3 stems of ruscus. You can choose no vase or for an additional charge, have the flowers delivered with your choice of vase. I chose the beautiful Garden Green Glass vase, which sets off the flowers beautifully.

My flowers arrived in a large rectangular box. Inside, I found the flowers carefully wrapped and secured, plus the vase, directions, and two packets of plant food. The only thing I had to do was cut an inch off the bottom of each stem and pour the first packet of plant food into the water before placing the flowers in the vase. The second packet of plant food went into a clean change of water after three days.

I absolutely recommend you look at the ProFlowers site if you are thinking about sending your Mom flowers for Mother’s Day. I was very impressed with how fresh and well packaged my bouquet was. Even though the roses are starting to droop, I still have the vase where I can see it because the flowers are so pretty!
