flower blog

Effective today, we’re moving this blog to our brand new Teleflora Community site. Some of you might have already explored this new site, which gives us the opportunity to offer many more features to our readers. We'll continue to feature Teleflora company news and announcements in the What's New category, along with holiday, event planning, and floral artistry tips and trends in the Teleflora Tips section. We've added our Flower News content to the community site as well, to keep you up-to-date on the latest floral headlines from around the world.

Teleflora Community is also a place to host giveaways and sweepstakes! Our first sweepstakes has already launched, and there's still time to enter our Meet Faith Hill sweepstakes, where one lucky winner will travel to Hollywood and go behind the scenes on our newest commercial shoot with musician Faith Hill. In an effort to increase community interaction, we've built our Community with a focus on you and integrated your product reviews, along with our social media channels.

The FlowerBlog will not be taken offline and it will still host our older posts, but all the new content will live on the new blog. Remember to update your bookmarks, and follow us on Facebook and Twitter for even more great updates from the Teleflora team.

We hope you have enjoyed reading the FlowerBlog and hope you enjoy the Teleflora Community page even more! See you there!

A sure sign of winter, the appearance of poinsettias on storefront windows is a momentary spectacle, readily abandoned along with the holiday decor. Few may know, however, that these Christmas-season icons hail from tropical climes.
