International Day of Friendship - what flowers to give?
We’ve got Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and pretty much a national day for everything. From eating your vegetables to a day all about photography, there’s a national day for every interest and activity. But what about our friendships? Our friendships are one of the most important parts of our lives. And yet, do we ever truly celebrate them as we should? Enter International Day of Friendship. On the 30th of July, we celebrate the International Day of Friendship. And at Eternal Petals, we think we should all be making a much bigger day of this event. Show your best friends what they really mean to you and make this national day as big as you would for Mother’s and Father’s Day! How? – Send her some beautiful long-lasting roses to show her how much you care. Flowers for International Day of Friendship Not sure which long-lasting roses to choose for your best mate? Follow our top tips on how to choose roses for your friend on Friendship Day. Traditional Yellow for Friendship Wondering what the traditional colour of roses is to symbolise friendship? It’s perfect for this time of year which makes it a great choice for International Friendship Day. Yellow. Yellow roses are both a symbol of friendship and celebration which makes them ideal for this special day. Plus, they’re a bright, beautiful and joyful way to brighten up your best friend’s home. Our bumblebee yellow roses do just the trick. Choose Their Favourite Colour If yellow isn’t for them, don’t worry. With our huge selection of hues, you can simply choose their favourite colour and send them a stunning box of long-lasting roses in their go-to palette. Whether you know they love soft and subtle pastel peach or you think luxe midnight blue roses would make them swoon, choose their favourite colour for Friendship Day. Pick a Colour to Suit Their House Another way to choose the perfect box of roses for your BFF is to match them up with their home. Maybe they’re into bright statement colours or maybe they like to keep things simple. Either way, you can choose a bold colour or a classic neutral that they’ll love to enjoy for the next whole year!

Flowers for Spring
Is it just us or when Spring Bank Holiday is around the corner, it really starts to get us in the mood for summer? On May 25th, we’ll have Spring Bank Hol this year and let’s be honest, it’s going to be one to remember. But not for the reasons we might have expected. This year, it seems we’ll be spending Spring Bank Holiday indoors. Or at least in the nearby park with only our households. So, what can we do to make Spring Bank Holiday feel a little special this year? Brighten Up with Flowers Obviously, at Eternal Petals, we’re all about flowers. Whatever the occasion, whatever the event or holiday, flowers are the answer. And Spring Bank Holiday is no different this year. So, one thing we’ll be doing to brighten up our homes for the spring holiday is to add some vibrancy to our rooms with our long-lasting roses. Instead of opting for subtle white or natural green, this holiday, we’re all about the colour. We’re thinking bold flashes of on-trend lilac roses for the most Instagram-worthy aesthetic, pops of beautiful brightening orange roses or even celebratory splashes of sunshine yellow. Whether you’re brightening up your own home for the Spring holiday or sending flowers to a friend or loved one to make them smile, opt for long-lasting roses that promise to last a whole year. Much longer than our current situation. Make Plans So, we might not be able to plan a big party or a day out with friends like we usually would for Spring Bank Holiday. But that doesn’t mean we can’t make plans and make the day special. If you’re living with a group, why not plan a picnic or BBQ in the garden and set a cute spring table to really make an afternoon of it? If you’re isolating alone, why not set up a Zoom afternoon? Invite your group of friends in and each have your own private picnic on camera. Distanced but together. Spring Clean If there’s ever a good excuse to do a full spring clean of the house, then it’s got to be in time for Spring Bank Holiday! Imagine a top to bottom fresh and clean home just in time for your Spring day off. Use the upcoming bank holiday as a goalpost and inspiration to get your house in tip-top shape. Just make sure it’s done and dusted in time for the holiday so that you can take the day off and enjoy the benefits of your work. This will likely be the only Spring Bank Holiday that we ever spend in lockdown. So, instead of seeing it as a negative that we can’t head out or meet up with friends and family, let’s stay positive and see it as a memorable, once in this lifetime experience. One that we’re sure to be talking about for years to come. Brighten up your home this May with some Spring Bank Holiday flowers that promise to get you in the mood for the summer.

Valentines Day with Eternal Petals!
Are you looking for that perfect unique gift for the love of your life? Trying to think of a good gift for that special someone who maybe isn’t quite that special yet? Want to get a nice valentines gift for your bestie? Scoured the shelves of Harrods or Selfridges and still haven’t found what you’re looking for? Running out of time and starting to panic? Your search is over. At Eternal Petals we believe in love that lasts for an eternity. What better way to celebrate that love than with a rose that lasts for at least a year (or longer). They are unique and thoughtful and can be customised by you for your special someone. We have many options you can go for. They include Solos, Quartets, Square and Round boxes. If you want something to represent that one and only person in your life consider a Solo. Our Solo is a rose of your choice inside a gorgeous crystal clear container. We have a vast selection of rose colours available. Maybe red isn’t you and your love’s colour? We have gorgeous shades of blue, green, pink and even satin shades to recognise a few. Maybe you’re not so confident in your special someone’s affection? Our customised Solo is subtle enough that if they end up not reciprocating that adoration you’re not going to find yourself in hopefully too awkward a situation. You could simply give them a Sweetheart white gold Solo. It’s sweet and subtle - the perfect luxury gift. Maybe you are confident in their feelings for you and want to give them a huge declaration of your love you could try our Deep Love solo with Swarovski dream, a Swarovski crystal in the centre and customised initials on the solo edge. If you wanted to go a step further you could give them one of our Quartets. This is four of our roses inside a slightly larger clear container so you can have every single view our beautiful roses. These can be customised just like our Solos. We also have available - for those who are madly in love and will spare no expense for their special someone, those that want to make the grandest gesture possible, besides proposing - our square and round boxes. Our square box is available in a black, white or marble velvet finish. We have available the option to customise the box by adding initials - yours or your loves or even both your letters - with a pearl, rainbow Swarovski crystal and also a clear Swarovski crystal. You can then choose 16 roses, we have the option of one or two colours for the square box. If you want to take it an extra step further you can add a Swarovski crystal to the centre of four, eight, or sixteen roses. We recommend one on each rose so that none of them feel left out, it is after all Valentines Day! We also have the option of our round box - a selection of 11-14 of our nicest roses in a black suede finish round box. Like our square boxes we have the option of adding Swarovski crystals to the centre of either six or twelve roses. Again, we would recommend, should you choose this option, to add one to all of them. Not to mention you can choose the option of adding glitter to any of the roses in our products. This adds an extra glimmer to our Solos and Quartets - especially when they are in the sunlight. On our boxes the roses stand out beautifully and sparkle like diamonds in the sun. Perfect for those who are blinded by love. Eternal Petals roses are the perfect luxury gift for anyone in your life. You could get one for your mum or your close friend. Perhaps that lonely person in your life who may need some cheering up on this cupid’s holiday. An Eternal Petals rose is a great gift and a lovely gesture that says you are my dearest friend and I care about you. Consider our Bumblebee Solo - yellow is after all known to be synonymous with friendship. It can be customised with a Swarovski crystal at the centre of the rose or you could put their initials on the side of the Solo. We hope you have a wonderful and romantic Valentines Day and with the help of Eternal Petals that it is even better!
