Flowers can make a difference in your day, even when you don’t notice. I’m not talking about the hippy “Flower Power” of the 70s, but rather the industrial psychology that can make a day more enjoyable. If you walk into most luxury condos in Aventura you’ll quickly notice beautiful flower arrangements at the entrance. These flower arrangements are changed frequently and admired by residents each time they enter and leave their building. You’ll see a combination of roses, orchids, tulips, and a other exotic species – a great way to start the day.
Some of the greatest poets and philosophers phrased it perfectly when they spoke about flowers. Here are a few great insights about flowers:
The garden should be adorned with roses and lilies, the turnsole, violets, and mandrake; there you should have parsley, cost, fennel, southern-wood, coriander, sage, savory, hyssop, mint, rue, dittany, smallage, pellitory, lettuces, garden-cress, and peonies. There should also be beds planted with onions, leeks, garlic, pumpkins and shallots. The cucumber growing in its lap, the drowsy poppy, the daffodil and brank-ursine ennoble a garden. Nor are there wanting, if occasion further thee, pottage-herbs: beets, herb-mercury, orache, sorrel and mallows, anise, mustard, white pepper and wormwood do good service to the gardener.
- Alexander of Neckham, Of the Nature of Things, 1187
One of the most attractive things about
the flowers is their beautiful reserve.
- Henry David Thoreau
Flowers leave some of their fragrance in the hand that bestows them.
- Chinese proverb
I don’t know whether nice people tend to grow roses
or growing roses makes people nice.
- Roland A Beowne
We gathered the wild-flowers.
Yes, life there seem’d one pure delight;
As thro’ the field we rov’d.
Yes, life there seem’d one pure delight.
- George Linley
Silently a flower blooms,
In silence it falls away;
Yet here now, at this moment, at this place,
The world of the flower, the whole of
the world is blooming.
This is the talk of the flower, the truth
of the blossom:
The glory of eternal life is fully shining here.
- Zenkei Shibayama..
Flowers construct the most charming geometries: circles like the sun,
ovals, cones, curlicues and a variety of triangular eccentricities, which
when viewed with the eye of a magnifying glass seem a Lilliputian
frieze of psychedelic silhouettes.
- Duane Michals, The Vanishing Act
It’s clear that some fresh flowers can give you an extra boost when you start and finish the day. You might not even realize it, but you’ll get that connection with an organic element in nature and that’ll put you at ease. Most of us don’t have the luxury of a new arrangement every few weeks, like in some condos around town, but a small bunch of colored roses can do the trick. If you’d like flowers that last longer, try orchids. Orchids are a beautiful addition to any home and they last a long time. Take a moment and visit a florist to get advice about the best type of flower or plant that fits your home.
There are several florists located in the Aventura area. Here are a few to get to know:

The most important part about any flower delivery is that the flowers arrival on time and fresh. It’s best to use an online source that focuses on flower delivery in your area. Most online flower delivery services have agreements with local florists to fill the orders they receive online and typically the prices are a lot less and you get the same flower.
Hope this was a helpful guide to buying flowers online.
