Want A Great Gift For Your Boss? Look No Further.

Bosses Day is a time set aside to honor our employers, the individuals who work hard behind the scenes to make our work life more enjoyable and productive. Started in 1958 by Patricia Bays Haroski, this national observance came into being when she noticed her father- who was also her boss- completing countless jobs in the office to help his employees. Wanting him to be recognized for his efforts, she worked to get National Bosses Day on the calendar on his birthday, October 16th. This year, let Mission Viejo Florist help you choose the ideal gift, plant or floral arrangement for your boss. Read More about Want A Great Gift For Your Boss? Look No Further. »

Beautiful, Bee-Filled Gardens And Their Flowers

As much as we love all things floral, we are especially excited when we find natural ways to maintain gardens and yards. Keeping your garden and outdoor living space free of pesticides and harmful toxins is a great step towards growing farm-fresh flowers, fruits and vegetables. Encouraging healthy, natural growth will also attract bees and other insects, which isn’t always a bad thing. Bees are excellent pollinators, create balance in the eco-system, and are unfortunately declining in numbers. Mission Viejo Florist recommends keeping pesticide-free, bee-friendly flowers in your garden or outdoor area to encourage a healthy, farm-fresh atmosphere for insects and people alike to enjoy.
