5 Appreciative Boss’s Day Card Messages

Your boss works hard, just like you. And like you, they deserve respect and praise for a job well done. If you’re buying the perfect gift (and of course I mean flowers) for the head man or woman in your office this year, you’ll need an appreciative and/or witty card message to go with it.


Boss’s Day Card Message Suggestions

1.Thanks for making it so much fun to come to work. Happy Boss’s Day!

2.I’ll have those TPS reports on your desk by this afternoon. Happy Boss’s Day!

3.We heard you cussing a blue streak so we bought this living plant to help clear the air. Happy Boss’s Day!

4.We noticed your office doesn't have windows so we got you flowers to help brighten your day. Happy Boss’s Day!

5.Nothing says, “I deserve a raise” quite like a gift of flowers. Happy Boss’s Day!

Sure, flowers speak louder than words, but why not use both? If you’re having trouble finding the right words, feel free to use those above, or let them inspire you to create your own message of appreciation. And if you haven’t ordered those flowers yet, what are you waiting for? Contact Marco Island Florist and Gifts today!

Pumpkins are "perfect containers" for Succulent Gardens... you can put in a liner... or you can just plant right into the pumpkin...

A succulent filled Pumpkin is a perfect fall centerpiece...

Here I used a Cinderella Pumpkin and planted the succulents right inside the 'gutted' pumpkin...

The Lid makes a great accessory... or stick it on a wood pick and place it right into the planter...

I used a Bansia Protea and some Eucalyptus Pods to give it even more texture... 

Or you can visit us at our 24/7 web site to see some other ideas we have to make a wonderful fall floral arrangement.

These gorgeous flowers are native to South America though some varieties have now been naturalized to the US. There are two species of Alstroemeria, one native to Chile and one to Brazil. The Chile species grows in winter while the Brazil species grows in summer. That makes it the perfect flower for our October spotlight as this month falls squarely between the two!

History

Light Pink AlstroemeriaThe Alstroemeria was discovered by Baron Claus von Alstromer. He collected seeds from the flower while on a trip to South America in 1753, and sent them to his teacher, Linnaeus, who then named the flower after him. Because of its South American origins, it is also known as the Peruvian Lily, Parrot Lily or the Lily of the Incas!

Meaning

The Alstroemeria is often associated with friendship because of the way its leaves grow. They grow upside down, twisting and turning evoking the twists, turns and growth that friends experience over time. It can also mean prosperity and fortune. This flower is often found in everything from bridal bouquets to corsages and boutonnieres. It is also the perfect gift for a friend or someone going to a job interview or embarking on a new venture.
The Alstroemeria is a gorgeous bloom that should be available this time of year at your local flower shop. Go by and order a gorgeous arrangement featuring this magnificent bloom!

Our pet our wedding day

A pet plays an important role in a couple’s life, and it’s not surprising that many couples choose to customize their weddings to include their furry companions. Wedding dogs, decked out in little tuxedos or wearing a wreath of roses around their necks, can act as the best man, maid of honor, ring bearer, etc..
