• Access to specials, promotions, and exclusive deals;

• Information about new products and services; 

• An address books to store frequently used addresses to save even more time when completing an order; 

• An order history of current and past orders to track and remember what has been sent and when; and

• Automatic entry into the Denver florist’s monthly drawings for prizes like a dozen free roses.

Registration is completely free. New registrants receive 25 free reward points to apply toward the Petal Rewards Programs. The points can be saved up to redeem special discounts or to select from a wide range of brand name merchandise.  

In commenting on the Denver florist’s online registration system, General Manager John Veldkamp said, “With so many consumers shopping on the go from their tablets and smart phones, the online registration process with our flower shop has the additional advantage of being a convenient source of information about key dates and addresses that a customer may need to access for any reason.
