January Tidbits


Hi everyone! Hopefully you're all busy getting back into the swing of things after the holidays! Trimming waistlines, organizing closets, back to school, creating traffic in the morning again (blast!). Montreal is back to business. At The Flower Pot, we're busy preparing for Valentine's Day already with three weeks to the big day. Taking all our busy schedules to heart, here's a mixed-bag of news bytes.


-Our new and improved wedding sections are up on our website! If you are getting married in summer 2014, check out our new products here and here.

-Pantone's 2014 colour of the year is Radiant Orchid. We'll be seeing a lot of purple this year. If you want to be at the forefront of the trend, ask us how you can incorporate the color into any flower arrangement.

Don't forget to get in the groove for Valentine's Day! It's time to think about ordering some roses for your honey. Visit our Valentine's Day section for ideas and inspiration here.

Time to start thinking about...Valentine's Day!


Now that the Christmas holidays are over, it's time to start decorating and thinking of gifts for the next event!! Pinterest is a great source of inspiration for Valentine's day decoration and gift ideas.

Best of all, The Flower Pot has an account as well so we can share our Pinterest discoveries and Valentine's Day flower recommendations with you. Click here to request an invite and follow us

Have this Love in a Bag sent to your loved one's office so they'll be thinking of you all day!

If roses are more your thing, and if you're so romantic you don't wait for Valentine's Day to say "I love you", check out our White Winter Nights arrangement. It's classified as a christmas item but it could be just what you need for your Valentine.

Let the Sunshine in!

The wonderful thing about winter in Montreal is that the sky is clear and the sun is shining, but at the moment everything is wet and dark. We're in the post-Christmas-holiday slump and the weather knows it.

Here at The Flower Pot we can't complain too much since our flowers help inject some sunshine into the dreary winter days we've had recently.  This White Winter Nights arrangement we're promoting now does just that.

The ten frosty white roses are surrounded by green foliage that mirrors the deep greens of winter evergreen. It reminds us that even in winter, when everything seems bleak and grey, beauty blooms if you know where to look.

That rule applies to holidays too! One of the warmest holidays of the year is set smack-dab in the middle of winter: Valentine's Day. Give the gift of warmth this winter season with The Flower Pot's Valentine's gift ideas.

Don't see what you're looking for? We have even more options in our Griffintown shop. We'd love to meet you in person!
