“Guys are in danger of finding themselves in the doghouse without even trying this year” says nationally recognized florist Charles Carithers. With the most romantic holiday falling on a Sunday this year, Valentines Day can sneak up on unsuspecting men who have been preoccupied with the Super Bowl, basketball season, hockey and pondering what the Braves will be like. Here is advice from Atlanta’s Cupid for over two generations, Carithers Flowers:
DON’T WAIT. That’s right fellas. You know we can procrastinate and end up causing ourselves unnecessary grief. Take advantage of Charles Carithers’ suggestion that this is not the time of year to screw up. “Order your Valentine Flowers during the week before so that she can bask in the glow of your love all week” states Charles Carithers. “When you order a dozen roses from us we will add another ½ dozen to the order at no extra charge. We also offer two dozen roses at a discounted Valentine rate. Now that is real value during these challenging economic times” Charles adds.
ORDER FROM A LOCAL FLORIST. A local florist with an actual local phone and physical address like Carithers Flowers 770-980-3000 at 1708 Powers Ferry Rd S.E. Marietta, GA 30067 is your best value according to John Klingel, Director of the South Florida Center for Floral Studies. With the recent cold snap in South America that damaged flower crops, many florists selling only through web sites are tempted to push distressed merchandise (dying flowers). Choosing a florist that is a member of the Society of American Florists like Carithers Flowers (a member since 1973) can save you some severe embarrassment.
SEND THEM TO HER WORKPLACE. Research proves that women prefer to get flowers at their office. “Show her and her co-workers how important she is to you” recommends Charles. “Surprise her with a bouquet at work with a card that says, ‘I wanted you to be the first to receive Valentine flowers’ she will always remember the sentiment” says Carithers.
SIZE DOES MATTER. That’s right guys, we like everything bigger and so do our ladies. Award Winning Florist Carithers Flowers is the exclusive Atlanta source for the impressive and elegant Imperial Roses measuring three feet in length with an enhanced bloom size. Every other arrangement in her office will be dwarfed in size compared to your bouquet from Carithers. Even Carithers reserve stock (every day roses) is twice as big as any supplier. Their longevity is also twice as long so when you send her Valentine flowers they will last longer than from any other florist…guaranteed!
COLOR HER WORLD. Get creative guys! Red roses are traditional and beautiful but you deserve options and so does she. “We offer roses in a variety of colors that other florists just can’t match.” Says Charles Carithers. “We offer pink, yellow, lavender, orange, peach, hot pink and yes of course red” explains Charles.
DON’T FORGET MOM. “Let her know she was the first love in your life” says Charles. “We have a variety of floral arrangements including one of my favorites, our deluxe holiday tulips” “Check them out on our site in addition to other Valentine gifts like candy, balloon arrangements, gift baskets and more” recommends Charles Carithers.
