When I first decided to have this made, I was uncertain how it would turn out and how it would make me feel. The end result was so far beyond my expectations. Suspended captured the essence of my mom, and displayed her memorabilia and flowers in such an endearing and heartwarming way that it lifts my spirits every time I see it! They absolutely captured who my mom was in the arrangement.

Benefits of Flowers

admin — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 21:08:28 +0000

Think about the last time you saw flowers. Did you have an increase of energy or a burst of joy within your heart? When it comes to getting smiles on faces and having people relax from the stress of life, it’s hard to beat flowers. Flowers (both the sight of them and the extracts taken) have been shown to:

Improve sleep (Lavender)
Decrease anxiety (Lavender)
Decrease depression (Rose)
Increase energy (the sight of almost any flower)
Decrease cholesterol (Hibiscus)
Lower blood pressure (Hawthorn)
Improve resistance to colds (Echinacea)

Do you need a burst of energy? Go smell a rose today!

Dried flowers as bright as the day they were picked!
