Love (and flowers) in the age of coronavirus11 November 2020As the days are getting colder and darker, and the UK goes back into another lockdown, it might feel like there isn't much to be cheerful about. It's times like these that we need to take care of each other, even if we can't be together in person for now. Luckily, because of the way we run our little flower business, we are able to stay open for online and telephone orders during lockdown, meaning that we are on hand to help you provide thoughtful gifts and bouquets to those you love. Our stunning range of flowers, plants and gifts are all available for delivery across London. We can tailor-make bunches based on your very favourite flowers, or you can choose from our hand-picked floral schemes. A wonderful selection of bouquets to brighten a loved one's day Whether you want a dazzling hand-tied selection of luxurious oriental lilies or a classic blooming bunch of gorgeous red roses, you're sure to find something you love. Of course, we offer quick and easy delivery options, so you can send and receive flowers across London. We also have a click and collect service - perhaps if you work nearby you may find this an easy way to bring home a surprise for your partner? Our speciality is designing on-trend bouquets of fresh flowers, so whether you want a colour selection of wintery carnations or an elegant display of orchids and lilacs, we can find the right match for you. Why not consider our customer favourite, the Elegant Elysium bouquet (https://www.mementoflowers.com/flowers/Elegant_Elysium.aspx) which features pink calla lilies, pink cymbidium orchids, pale pink large-headed roses, lilac trachelium and cerise bouvardia with eucalyptus and salal? The recipient is sure to love the stunning gift packaging, and you can pick an accompanying card to share your special message at this difficult time. Special gifts for that special someone It's not all about the flowers either. If you want to make a special occasion a day to remember, we also offer a stunning range of gift baskets (https://www.mementoflowers.com/shop/Plants.aspx). Pick from champagne, red wine or rose wine to accompany the lovely little rose plant, which sits snuggly alongside a tasty box of Mason Fougère chocolates, tucked into a delightful wicker basket. With all of our bouquets and stand-alone plants, you can pick to add extra gits, from special chocolate gift boxes to balloons and teddy bears. There is a choice of lovely gift cards too, so you can send a special message which we will hand-write into the card for you. Celebrate a special occasion even if you can't be there in person Most of us have found 2020 a challenging year; our lives have been disrupted, we are facing greater financial uncertainty and we're worrying about our jobs. It can be an especially challenging time for those of us who have experienced major life changes during this time. If you've got friends or family members who are celebrating milestone birthdays or even the birth of a new baby, why not show them that you are thinking about them by sending one of our lovely celebration bouquets or gift baskets? Add a special note in the form of a gift card, telling them just how much you're looking forward to being able to celebrate with them in person once all of this is over. Thoughtful gifts when someone is under the weather Flowers aren't just about celebration, they can also make a thoughtful gift for someone who is finding life a little bit tough. If you know that someone is struggling with their mental health during lockdown, or that they've become ill and are having to isolate, a thoughtful bunch of flowers and a card can go along way to showing them that there are people thinking about them. You might like to choose something with a bright pop of colour to cheer them up, or go for one of our hardy, attractive bunches (https://www.mementoflowers.com/shop/Get_Well_Soon.aspx) that will look fresh and vibrant for a long time. Whether you pick a simple bunch of red roses (https://www.mementoflowers.com/flowers/Crimson_Rose_Hatbox_Large.aspx) or a classic bunch like 'Treasured Time' which features pink alstroemeria, white Oriental lilies, pink large-headed roses, white spray chrysanthemums, lilac statice and pink germini with eucalyptus cinerea, they're sure to see just how much you care about them. You can even find a great selection of vases (https://www.mementoflowers.com/shop/Vases.aspx) to go alongside your gift so they can display your lovely gesture in a prominent place in their home. So whether it's a special occasion or you just want to send a little token of love to someone you care about during this difficult time, get in touch to see how we can help you find just the right floral arrangements to give them a gift they will cherish and remember.
