Flower Trends

You change the clothes you wear and the way you get your hair styled based on the current trends so why can't we look at our flowers the same way? For that reason, PickOntario.ca has come up with new and exciting ways to add flowers into your everyday life.

Pamper Yourself – Flowers in the Bathroom

Creating a spa-like bathroom in your home continues to be a big trend. A simple frosted vase filled with white tulips and roses on your vanity will help create the ambiance for a perfect retreat.

Ignite Creativity - Flowers in the Office

Flowers aren’t just for your home. Research shows that the addition of flowers can enhance productivity and creativity in your work environment. A colourful mixed bouquet will inject a burst of energy while a potted plant can help create a relaxing atmosphere.

Create a View – Flowers in the Window

Don’t have the greatest view from your window? Create one. Attach a series of hanging bud vases -- available from many manufacturers -- to your curtain rod. For the best effect, keep it simple: use single stem gerberas, orchids or daisies.
