Petal It Forward
Bloom Floral has been participating in this annual nationwide event for several years and we love the joy that it brings to our community. Keep one bouquet and give the second to someone else. Show us your smile at #PetalItForward
- We participate in the #PetalItForward event to show our community the true power of flowers. #PetalItForward is a nationwide event. We’re here in Algona spreading smiles.
- We want people to experience this firsthand, so we are giving two bouquets – one to keep, and one to share. We’re petalling it forward!
- There is a direct link between flowers and positive emotions. In fact, a Rutgers University study demonstrates that the presence of flowers makes us happy – creating instant delight and enhancing our life satisfaction.
- Flowers are also proven to provide a moment of calm. Research from the University of North Florida shows that living with flowers, even just for a few days, reduces stress.
- A nationwide survey conducted by the Society of American Florists revealed 84% of Americans say the best reason for receiving flowers is “just because.”
- The happiness expressed when giving flowers is just as strong as receiving: 80% of Americans say, “Receiving flowers from others makes me feel happy.” 88% say, “Giving flowers to others makes me feel happy.”
