Women's Day 2014, celebrated on March 8th, is fast approaching. What does this mean for you?
Women's Day's is finally coming back home to America, you may not realize this but Women's Day internationally is nearly as big as Valentine's Day. What? No...you must be joking?
It's no joke, worldwide an enormous amount of flowers are given and received for Women's Day. What color? What varieties? The great part about Women's Day is that the flower color or variety isn't as important as the quality and the size of the blooms or bouquet.
How does one celebrate Women's Day? First, it doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman to join in the party. The theme of the day is to "Love, Honor and Respect" women, so it is perfectly acceptable for a man to give flowers to the women in his life, as well as, women to share flowers with all their friends, family, co-workers and colleagues.
This holiday doesn't have the pretense of Valentine's Day or even Mother's Day. The flowers you give can be much more creative, local and unique as well. No need for long stem blood red roses. How about tulips? Or iris? Or how about a big bunch of gerberas?
