Your Guide to the Best Flowers for Mother’s Day! 

As always promised at Busy Bee, we’ve again taken the leg work out of choosing beautiful flowers to send to the mothers in your life!  Here’s what we think are either the best, most unusual or most special of the “bunch!”

Sorbet Bouquet

This arrangement features lovely flowers in stand out shades of pink and orange.  I also love the trendy touch of covering the stems with an exotic Ti leaf so that they cannot be seen through the glass vase (1800flowers, $59.99)

Absolutely Elegant

This stunning selection is composed of gorgeous white Phalaenopsis Orchids in a classic, silvered vase!  With these flowers, you will surely make up for any boring gifts in years past!  (1800flowers/Martha Stewart, $149.95)

Out of the Ordinary Blue and Yellow

I love this clever and attractive floral gift - six different blue and white patterned ceramic vases paired with a dozen long stemmed yellow roses!  The vases measure 5” in height and when combined with the bright yellow roses, create a terrific (and reusable) arrangement!  (calyxflowers.com, $99.95) 

Quirkiness in a Colander

This sounds a bit crazy, but Todd Oldham has fashioned the cutest flower arrangement in a lime green metal colander designed to look like a salad!  Using green and white kale, green fuji mums, pistachio carnations and more, this arrangement is fantastic and while it does resemble a salad, the flowers are really beautiful!  (ftd.com, item #T575, $79.99; a less “salad-y” looking version in a pink colander is also available for $69.99!)

I hope that these suggestions help with your May 11th gift giving and keep in mind that these fabulous flower arrangements can easily bail you out if you need a last minute idea!
