Fun Flower Facts
If several of us want to go in together for funeral flowers, how do we sign our names so the family knows how to thank us?
When groups go in together on flowers, the arrangements can be very special and make a larger showing. There should be room on the floral enclosure card for several names, but if there's not enough space it is best to sign as a group, such as The Girls in Accounting or The Smith Family. Include a contact name and address on the card so the family knows who to thank.
I heard that flowers are good for your health. Is that true?
According to recent behavioral research conducted at Rutgers University, the presence of flowers triggers happy emotions, heightens feelings of life satisfaction and affects social behavior in a positive manner far beyond what is normally believed. Common sense tells us that flowers make us happy, said Dr. Jeanette Haviland-Jones, lead researcher on the study. Now, science shows that not only do flowers make us happier than we know, they have strong positive effects on our emotional well being.
