We are so excited to have started our blog, The Enchanted
Petal! To think, 125 years ago we delivered flowers by horse and buggy… Back then the word “blog” was better served as
an onamonapia for the buggy wheels over the city’s cobble stone streets. Everything
was hand written, carbon paper was our copy machine, and there were almost as
many papers around as there were flowers! Years passed, flowers flourished, and
we finally had our first computer system. It consisted of big clunky monitors
with buzzing black screens with bright green text. Coming from such primitive
beginnings, we’re sure that our company founders, Abraham and Bertha Stein, couldn’t
even dream of being able to share their love of flowers like this! From our
website, to Facebook and Twitter, and finally this blog… It’s the closest we’ve
come to giving a flower to everyone in the world.
We hope you enjoy this blog. We’ll be featuring the latest
in floral trends, old traditions, tips, and designs. We’ll share new ways to
incorporate flowers and plants into your home, your office, and your life. We’ll
share our stories and the emotions of flowers, the latest happenings at our flower
shops, and hundreds of beautiful and inspiring photos.
It was Beverly Nichols who said “To be overcome by the
fragrance of flowers is a delectable form of defeat.” We couldn’t agree more.
We are fortunate to be overcome by flowers every day; their scent, their
beauty, even the simple feeling of their cool petals in our hands. It is the
overwhelming joy that flowers and plants bring to us that we wish to share with
you.
