Blooming Floral ArrangementsAt Baskets Galore we understand how important it is to make Mother’s Day special and last year we trialled a number of fresh flowering plant gift baskets for the occasion. It was such a success that we implemented it on a larger scale this year so we could offer you even more variety and value.Our Managing Director and the mummy of the company, Selina, went sourcing from top quality local flower wholesalers so as we could buy fresh plants in bulk.They went with local wholesaler 'Peake Blooms' who stocked a wide range of flowering plants including daffodils, azaleas and roses. These particular varieties were selected because Selina loves her gardening and has a bit of knowledge on what plants are hardy enough to travel through the delivery network and still looking beautiful on arrival at the other end.Around two hundred plants were brought into the warehouse just for Mother's Day, and our glamorous BG Mummy had the job of hand-wrapping these with cellophane and pretty ribbons (Don’t worry she loves to do it, but did say afterwards that she didn't want to see another plant for a LONG time! Queue her children noting what NOT to get her for Mother's Day!!)mum wrapping mothers dayThe flowering plants were such a success that we will be bringing them back for International Mother's Day on 11th May. Most countries in the world actually celebrate Mother's Day in May, so don't panic if you missed the UK one - just order a Mother's Day Gift Basket from us to send in May!We have also decided that because we had so many great reviews on these flowering plant gifts we are going to be introducing them into our other gift baskets ranges scheduled to be photographed in the summer months. Make sure to keep an eye out for those special birthday, get well and sympathy gift baskets containing fresh flowering plants.
