Spread the Cheer!

The Flower Pot's new random acts of kindness campaign!!

This morning, The Flower Pot started a fun new project. For the next few weeks we will be randomly delivering fresh arrangements to strangers! These "Spread the Cheer" arrangements come with a note to enjoy it for an hour or so, then pass it on to someone else. It allows people to enjoy flowers, enjoy giving and enjoy recieving- all at once! When the flowers are tired, whoever has the flowers at that point can call us or come by and we'll refresh the arrangement to continue on its journey!

If you've recieved the Spread the Cheer bouquet, or know someone who you think deserves to, please email us at info@knoxvilleflowerpot.com!

Valentine's Roses

What's the difference between The Flower Pot and those internet only florists?

Every order from The Flower Pot is arranged by us and hand delivered in a vase. We never deliver flowers in a box or via Fedex or UPS. Our designers inspect and place each flower so that there's no extra work for the recipient. Our delivery staff delivers your flowers directly to the recipient. Say the person you're sending flowers to isn't home or is not in the office that day? Not a problem! The Flower Pot contacts the sender and the recipient to work out a new delivery. At The Flower Pot you never have to worry about spending money on flowers that will sit outside in a cardboard box or possibly arrive damaged or even dead.

We treat our customers like neighbors because they are our neighbors!

Flowers in "Love Happens"

Jennifer Aniston's new movie "Love Happens" opens today and if you're anything like us you'll be drooling over the gorgeous arrangments made in her character's flower shop, Eloise's Garden.

In the movie, Eloise appears to create this design (below) as the camera moves in 360 degrees around her design bench. In reality, she had some expert help to make sure the completed design turned out to be a smashing composition.

The finished bouquet contains some of the most premium flowers you can buy. The design contained some of the most premium flowers you can have in a flower shop – lilies, hydrangea, viburnum, ornithogalum, purple phalenopsis orchids, gentiana, eucalyptus and ivy. The container was a natural wood stump hollowed out to create a vessel. The approximate value of the bouquet was $500-$750. It was especially elaborate to show the artistry of designing flowers. The magic of flowers is going from individual items to a beautiful composition.

There's also a scene in the movie in which Aniston's character, Eloise, creates an arrangement while jamming on her iPod. The scene will end up being about 15 to 20 seconds, but it took about seven hours to film.
