Why do we send flowers for International Women's Day?

Flowers have been part of International Women's Day since the early 1900s, inspired by the phrase "Bread and Roses" – a rallying cry for fairness, dignity and beauty in everyday life. Sending flowers on this day is a way to celebrate, uplift and honour the incredible women in our lives. Choose something meaningful and we'll make sure it's delivered with care.

Absolutely appalling service. It was my mothers 90th.They apparently phoned my Mum and said she dropped the phone, so they werent able to deliver. I phoned Rosie, the phone kept cutting out. They said they would deliver the next day, they didnt. My mother phoned and swapped the order for some orchids . They arrived on Saturday dead. I have no words . I am furious!!
