Why Even Guys Want To Celebrate in Pink

by Leave a Comment

Whether you played with Barbie or G.I. Joe as a child doesn’t matter. What does matter is that Celebrate in Pink LLC makes it fun and easy for everyone (women and men) to support breast cancer awareness and research. Celebrate in Pink LLC is known for their “distinctive pink ribbon celebrationware” — in other words, pink ribbon themed paper tableware and paper napkins. What a great idea!

Where To Find Wholesale Asiatic Lilies For Decorating A Mall

by Leave a Comment

Ask Buzz: I am looking for asiatic lilies (as flowering plants) to use as centerpieces in a large shopping mall. I would need them in the red & white colors only please. If anyone knows a vendor who could help me with this I would be forever grateful 😀 ~ Lilia F

Buzz, The Wholesale Expert: Lilia, finding cut asiatic lilies to use in your mall shouldn’t be a problem at all. However, finding flowering lily plants this time of the year can be difficult. Early to mid summer is the “off season” for lily planting. You may also wish to check with flower wholesalers in the late summer (July-August) as this is the time that most begin to plant their lilies again. The availability will increase dramatically before Easter and from July through the end of the summer. It usually takes around 65 days to force asiatic lilies, so buying lily bulbs wouldn’t be helpful either if you’re on a short time schedule.

If you are set on red and white asiatic lilies, I suggest buying fresh cut asiatic lilies from flower wholesalers. There are some that offer as many as 60-80 in one box. The life span is far shorter (vase time 7-10 days) but the availability is better.

Here are some wholesale fresh flower growers/importers who provide fresh cut lilies in many varieties.

When the thoughts die down, they race to the store for a novelty candy induced sugar rush. Yours should be the store they come to.

Retro Candy — The novelty is in the inability to find retro candy elsewhere.

Candy Dishes — Not your traditional candy dishes though. These are candy dishes made of actual candy! Candy covered is for sissies. Glass is out. Try candy dishes made of real hard candy instead!
