Holidays are a busy time for The Bungalow Rose Floral & Gift Shop so it’s a good idea to place your order early. Second Choice Selections means you need to have an alternate floral selection or number when ordering. Suggestions are “As close as possible” or “Designer’s choice”. These would be entered in the comments section of the order form if you’re ordering online.
Pricing online doesn’t include delivery. Local delivery is $9.50 and outside the Portland area is $15.00. Request for specific timed deliveries on holidays can’t be guaranteed.
Orders for Valentine’s Day need to be made in advance due to only one day to deliver.
The Bungalow Rose Floral & Gift Shop’s Guide to Buying Flowers
For those who think “it’s a jungle out there” when it comes to buying flowers, these simple tips from the Society of the American Florist will pave the way:
Be Spontaneous
People may be used to receiving flowers on birthdays and anniversaries. They may even quickly notice the absence of flowers on these occasions. But flowers given for no reason other than “I was thinking of you today” make a huge impact because they are unexpected.
Don’t Overlook Anyone
A bouquet can express a range of feelings – from romantic to friendly to something in between. Your wife or significant other will love to receive a surprise gift of flowers. So will your mother, daughter, sister and friends.
Try Something New
People are keenly aware of the multitude of floral varieties available and are eager to see new specimens first-hand. Giving roses of unusual hue – like peach and pink – or an arrangement of mixed flowers demonstrates an awareness of color and an understanding of botany that will not go unnoticed.
Flowers Are Never Boring
Because of their infinite diversity and unique appeal, flowers can be given time and time again without losing their “specialness.” Each new floral arrangement is a fresh and individual declaration of appreciation – reflecting positively on your imagination and thoughtfulness.
Flowers Don’t Have To Mean Commitment
Relax, people know when an arrangement simply means you care.
Get Professional Help
Selecting flowers may be a bewildering experience for the uninitiated person. Fortunately, help is available: The Bungalow Rose Floral & Gift Shop can create an affordable and personalized flower arrangement that will match both your sentiment (light or serious) and the person’s personality.
Be Prepared
When calling The Bungalow Rose Floral & Gift Shop, have the name of the person you are surprising, their delivery address and phone number, and method of payment ready. If you’re not sure what you want to order, now’s the time to ask for ideas.
A Gift Of Flowers Goes A Long Way
Every person remembers the first time they got flowers. Just as you never forgot the first time someone other than your mom served you a home-cooked meal, they’ll treasure this gesture forever.
Thank you to our friends at the Society of the American Florist for the above information.
