Taking care of yourself in every way possible is a great way to de-stress, relax and feel well enough to care for those around you. But finding simple ways to do this can often be challenging. One simple way to care for yourself is by including plant life in your environment. Take stock of the space where you spend the most time and look for small ways to improve it. Create a plant friendly, uncluttered space that allows room for meditation and quiet thinking. You’ll breathe easier with plants in your space and find that gazing on their natural beauty energizes and relaxes you at the same time. Tobler’s Flowers encourages you to select some of our beautiful plants to include in your stress-free home or work space. Read More about Start Your Self Care September With A Plant »

But in more recent years, it has actually become far more fashion-forward to break this rule and add white to your wardrobe or home. Try including a white wool throw blanket in your living room, or all white place settings at your next dinner party. Tobler’s Flowers invites you to choose from our white arrangements to lend a new essence of white to your favorite room, as well. Read More about Elegant All-White Flower Styles For Summer »
Did you know the bee population is on the decline? Bees are dying out due to many environmental factors. Bees have played a vital role as pollinators of important crops, contributing to our world’s food sources. But now, bees are losing out and may eventually disappear. We can help on a local level simply by creating spaces in our yards that invite bees to work and live safely. Planting bright blooming flowers like sunflowers, daisies, marigolds, and hydrangea are a great way to encourage bee growth in your garden. Provide shade and some fresh water and watch bees become regular visitors. No garden to speak of? Tobler’s Flowers encourages you to use whatever outdoor space you have, like a porch, patio, or balcony, to display bee-friendly flowers for our small friends.
