Thursday, February 11, 2021

Galentine's Day is almost here! And, this year, there is even more reason to show your love and appreciation to the special ladies in your life!

Who would have thought that a made up holiday from a comedy show on TV would have such an impact on our lives today? We certainly didn't, but we love the chance to celebrate the gorgeous gals (and guys) in our lives just a little bit more.

Although you may not be able to take your homegirl out to dinner or share a bottle of wine over your favorite RomCom, you can still be there from anywhere!

Although giving your girl a call or sending a token of your affection like a beautiful bouquet or flower subscription may seem small in the grand scheme, these small gestures speak volumes--and are guaranteed to bring a smile on the face of your treasured friends!

Flowers are the perfect gift for a socially distanced Galentine's Day. Everyone has a flower that they love, and we've got incredible bouquets to convey just how that special gal makes you feel. Best of all, with flower delivery you can send a perfect bunch of fresh flowers to that special someone no matter where they are in the US.

If there's a lady who adores bright colors, we recommend our Wild Berries Premium bouquet, bursting with color and joy. Calla lilies, Gerbera daisies, and gorgeous roses will make her heart pop with happiness! Within our mixed bouquet selection, you'll definitely find the perfect gift for your dearest gal pals.

For the gal who can't wait for summer, we've got the best tropical flower bouquets in town. Featuring vivacious color and bold greenery with fun accents like loofahs, pineapples, and bananas, these tropical bouquets will send her dreaming of a gorgeous getaway without having to leave the house. The Pink Paradise bouquet is a celebration of all things pink and tropical - and makes the perfect meaningful gift for Galentine's Day!

Roses are also an option. We know, you probably don't want to give your bestie a bunch of red roses, but how about 2 dozen gorgeous roses in her favorite color? We have options from white (for the minimalist), green (for the adventurous), and a prism of many differently colored roses! We even have options between the hybrid tea roses you know and love as well as breathtaking garden roses.

When spending even more time than usual inside, sometimes you want to give a gift that will last more than a couple of weeks. Wouldn’t your girlfriend love an easy to care for but gorgeous orchid? Or perhaps a pop of color is more her style – then she’d love a red Bali anthurium! If succulents are more her style, we’ve got those too!

Sometimes a one-time gift isn’t quite right to convey your love for someone. In that case, what about a gift subscription? Bloomsy Original to demonstrate to someone that you really care about them! Each month, they’ll receive a different bouquet sent directly from our Rainforest Alliance-Certified Farms to their door to enjoy for several weeks. Each bouquet is handpicked and hand-tied with care.

For the woman who has everything, we know one thing she doesn’t have – a monthly subscription to the exclusive New York Botanical Garden BloomsyBox! A portion the revenue from each box goes to support the NYBG’s mission of conservation and education. Plus, with each delivery you’ll receive a collectable postcard featuring art from the extensive botanical art collection at the LuEsther T. Mertz Library! Every bouquet captures the timeless elegance and historic beauty of the garden – in flower form.

No matter what you do for Galentine’s Day, make sure to show your girls some love!
