Florist launches £1 bouquets so you can send a smile for less in lockdown – but you’ll have to be quick

AN ONLINE florist is selling £1 bouquets during the second lockdown – so that you can brighten up someone’s day for less.

Online flower delivery company Flying Flowers has announced it will be making one of its most colourful bouquets available for just a quid for a limited time only.

The ‘Cheerful Smile’ bouquets – usually priced at £24.99 – will be available from 9 November for just £1.

The brand hopes the bouquets will prove to be an affordable way for customers to put a smile on loved ones’ faces in these difficult times.

A feel-good combination of white roses, sunflowers, yellow santini chrysanthemums, yellow solidago and eucalyptus cinerea – the ‘Cheerful Smile’ bouquet offers a floral pick-me-up, bound to pollinate a little happiness in uncertain times.

Colour psychology expert Karen Haller, author of The Little Book of Colour, describes yellow flowers as a “cheery hello”.

Karen, an expert in the science of colour and behaviour, said: “Yellow is the colour of happiness. It’s the colour of optimism, it’s the colour of sunshine, it’s the colour that can help uplift us.

“During lockdown I have often bought yellow flowers and when I walked into the kitchen it would be like the colour gave me a cheery hello – yellow is the perfect colour for people who need a friendly pick-me-up.”

The £1 bouquets will be on sale for five days during Flying Flowers’ ‘Send a Smile Week’ – with limited numbers available each day from Monday 9 to Friday 13 November.

Daily drops will go live at 10am on the website. The brand is even covering the cost of delivery, so there really is no excuse not to treat someone to a floral boost.

Flying Flowers’ Senior Brand Manager Erica Nicholson said: “Flowers have long been known for their ability to put a smile on people’s faces and Send a Smile Week is our way of helping spread a little happiness.

“We recognise many people are having a tough time at the moment and checking in with your friends and family has never been more important. A little burst of colour and nature is just what the doctor ordered, and we’re happy to prescribe it with our £1 Cheerful Smile bouquet”.

Flying Flowers’ ‘Send A Smile Week’ runs Monday 9 to Friday 13 November. For more details and to order your £1 bouquet visit sendasmile.
