I never would have guessed that one small gift of a houseplant would make such a difference in our relationship. I sent one of those little ferns to my wife, and she appreciated the gesture so much that she agreed to move back in. Provided that I display the same amount of sensitivity to her in the future, whatever that means. I hope that you'll still be around for me later on, and judging by all the positive comments I imagine you will be.(Larry A., Leominster MA )

Every gift has meaning, but flowers all have the extra meaning of being beautiful. They bring happiness to people just by being flowers. Thank you for giving us these gifts we can send to other people to brighten their day.(Kate N., Racine WI )

T Air Force Base Oklahoma Delivery

 

I'm very gratified that one of the first thing my godson saw is the basket of flowers that I sent to the hospital. His mother is one of my best friends in the world and I couldn't be happier. I also couldn't be there, so I have to thank you for being my stand-in on one of the most important days in both of their lives. Oh, and the husband, too, I guess.(Mary I. , Avondale AZ )

As a society, we tend to send flowers out of feelings of guilt for not being in a place we would normally be. Before the advent of automobiles and airplanes, we wouldn't stray too far from home (except in a few cases), and so we didn't have a need for sending gifts through the mail, or the Internet, or using FTD, or some other wire service. But we are products of our times, and because even nuclear families are so far flung, and because husbands and wives often live and work on different continents from one another, we have this need to send gifts to one anther in lieu of being there. What we're acknowledging is that we usually do what we can to make compromises between how we would like to live and how we would like to be close to one another. It's apparently socially acceptable to be apart like this as long as we can send each other things that remind us of this emotional connection even though there's no physical connection. ROCK ON, BROTHER!!!(Rey V. , Nagoya , Japan)

T Air Force Base Oklahoma Business

 

I don't know what I was thinking. I like to wander around when I go shopping, and the other day I happened into a florist, who had a special on a spring arrangement of irises and tulips. Though I often use your services for flower delivery, I was taken in by the price, and I sent some to my friend in Vancouver because she's going through a rough time right now. Well, I think you spoiled me for flowers, because I got a call from her when they arrived. She's didn't say anything bad about it, but I could tell from the tone in her voice that they weren't exactly glowing with radiance. Hmmmm, I thought. About a month later, things were still bad for her, so I decided to use you to send them (because I happened to be at home when I thought of it). The results were telling. She went on and on about how your flowers were so much better than the previous ones. She thought it could have been the time of year that accounted for the difference, but I knew better. I should have known.(Daniela D., Rochester NY )

My sister went into labor at 3:00 on Tuesday. I got the news and ordered flowers to be sent to her recovery room. Imagine my surprise when the labor lasted longer than the delivery time for the flowers. By the time little Nicole was in the world, she had some beautiful sunflowers greeting her.(Alicia I., Santa Fe NM )

T Air Force Base Oklahoma Funeral Homes

 

Though I am far away from my friends, it's nice to know that I can let them know I am thinking about them in a time of sadness and loss. Flowers are so much more tactile and have more substance than cards or electronic messages, like they are stand-ins for you. It's something they can move around and focus on in order to get the kind of feeling that I hope I would provide were I there. I'm glad that you can help me express my sympathy for the family in this way and that I can do it much more easily than if I were to go there myself. That sounds horrible, I suppose, but my feeling is that it does no one any good if I were to go there for just a gesture when I can send something in my stead. (Jenny K., Escuintla )
