Autumn Specials


Autumn Hues For Your Home

They blow in the wind. They wait for spring. Trees have a lovely life. They never ever shrink.



“The bursting sun, the crackling leaves, See them glowing from the trees?”

All of us are bogged down by life’s incessant changes. The race of life leaves us with no scope to think. Or is it?

No. We do stop and think.

Whenever we are in trouble, we look for hope. When we are sad, we look for inspiration to feel happy.

And those beautiful moments when we derive inspiration from nature around us, turn out to be the most beautiful moments of our lives.




“Colors surround us, so vivid and bright, What colors do you see, in this beautiful sight?”

Nature. Ever changing, yet, ever consistent. Every part of nature welcomes change. Rough weathers…. Molting….. Everything! Just like how we have to do, in our lives.

Take trees for example. Spring is when they shed their old leaves and take up a new appearance. And in order to make the process smooth, they prepare themselves all through autumn. In a cycle that none of us have ever missed, the leaves gradually change color from green to red to yellow. Don’t you forget purple. Even on their way to change, trees show us how to prepare for it, giving us the beautiful season – autumn.  


“I see orange and purple, yellow and red, A big leaf just swooshed by my head!!!”

Won’t it be beautiful if these deep hues greet your guests every time they enter your living room? At Floralis, we have noticed how beautiful autumn is in parts of India and elsewhere.

Decorate your Homes



Home Décor

Artificial flowers
You know that fresh, natural flowers are a source of instant joy and can make the recipient feel on top of the world. But there are artificial flowers as well which are great for your home and can lend that aura of natural beauty to your interior spaces. One very distinct advantage artificial flowers have over their natural counterparts is their longer shelf life. Unlike natural flowers which can wilt and die if not taken proper care of, artificial flowers and floral arrangements can last for months on end with very low maintenance.



Dried Flowers
Dried flowers have been a huge hit with Indian customers. Floralis is one of the largest suppliers of dried flowers in the country with a large volume being exported to Europe and the United States of America. They can be decorated with other plants and shrubs to create beautiful home décor items and you’ll find a large variety of them at our online and offline stores. 



Glitter Flowers
Floralis is proud to present an exciting range of glitter flowers for the modern home. These flowers add a touch of style and you can get really creative with this product. It’s flexible enough to adorn your living room as well as make your little angel’s room even more beautiful. They are now available to order online. You can also check them out in our outlets in Kolkata and Bengaluru. 



Mats & Wall Hangings
As a complete home décor store, Floralis keeps your walls in mind too. Often, in a bid to make the rooms contemporary and stylish, we get confused what to do with the walls. Too little and they would feel barren; and if you try to put too much into one side, it feels forced and cluttered. That’s why we now feature a variety of wall hangings to suit different themes and add elegance to your rooms without going overboard. We also have a range of mats in different materials and sizes to suit myriad requirements. 



Candle Holders
Every once in a while, you must have felt the need for a candle stand to support the candles and at the same time, look classy. Candles are now more of a style statement than a necessity and while you can place your candles just about anywhere, there’s always the thought at the back of your mind that they shouldn’t spoil the area where they are being put. But you can bid adieu to this worry of yours as Floralis now has a huge stock of some of the most aesthetic yet functional candle holders which add to the charm of your interiors and give you peace of mind. 



There’re also hurricane lamps, lanterns, kitchen utensils and flower vases which have newly arrived and are worth seeing for their simplicity as well as earthy appeal. We have a lot of exciting products like these and many more lined up for you. So come prepared for some heavy shopping!

Flower Horoscope


Flower Horoscope

You probably know about your zodiac sign and its significance in your life. But do you know the flower under which you were born and its uniqueness? Flower horoscope enables you to discover more about yourself and others around you by associating a flower with a specific period in the calendar. By identifying the flower corresponding to your birth date and that of family and friends, you are able to better understand yourself and the people who matter.  

Here is a list of flowers with their corresponding months:

Carnation – January

Carnations traditionally symbolize fascination, apt for the beginning of a new year and its freshness. Dianthus is its botanical name, meaning “divine flower”. In Flower Horoscope, a pink carnation signifies womanly love whereas a yellow one means disdain. If you gave a red carnation, it would imply how much your heart grieves for that person. And if that person gave you a striped carnation in return, it would mean refusal!


Iris – February

Iris has the soft shades of light blue and white. It stands for hope, knowledge and wisdom. This flower is the symbol of the Italian city of Florence, where it is used against a red backdrop. Iris also finds a place of prominence on the Quebec flag as well as being the universal representation of Scouting.

Daffodil – March

According to the Flower Horoscope, the daffodil is a spring flower symbolizing rebirth. If you give a daffodil, it conveys warmth and high regard for the recipient. Daffodils are also used for decorative purposes by the Chinese during their New Year. The Republic of Wales has further increased the daffodil’s stature by making it their national flower.

Daisy – April

Daisies are popular among gardeners; those who don’t have the “green thumb” also consider them to be “friendly.” They are easy to grow and their vibrant blooms are appreciated by flower lovers all around the world. Daisies are usually associated with simplicity and innocence.

May – Lily

Lilies represent purity and are wonderfully fragrant. Yet, somehow, they are the most commonly presented flowers at funerals. That’s because their presence symbolizes the departed soul’s restored innocence after leaving this world.



June – Rose

Perhaps the most famous flower of all, a rose stands for varying symbolisms, the commonest being love. The ancient Greeks identified a rose with their goddess of love, Aphrodite. The Christians related a rose’s petals with Christ’s wounds. The red rose also symbolizes the Virgin Mary. If you are giving this flower, take into consideration every color’s meaning. Red means love, pink shows gratitude and admiration; whereas light pink conveys sympathy. A white rose means friendship and purity, a yellow shows platonic, undying love, orange means passion, burgundy is equivalent to beauty, blue symbolizes mystery, green portrays calm and purple conveys protection, similar to parental love. A black rose is hard to get, but shows slavish devotion.

July – Larkspur

Larkspurs evoke the worry-less summer days one remembers from one’s youth. This flower associates itself with lightheartedness and frivolity.

August – Gladiolus

Named after a gladiator’s sword, these flowers are reminiscent of strength, honor and sincerity. While some species are dainty, others are spiky and tall, like a sword. That’s why they are also called “sword lilies”. Gladiolus is attractive and seems enveloped in layered tunics.


September – Aster

Aster is often used to accentuate mixed flower arrangements due to its dainty form. It is also referred to as an expression of love. So those of you wanting to express their love a little unconventionally can opt for Asters.



October – Marigold

Marigolds originally belong to Mexico and the name is a derivation from “Mary’s Gold”, the Virgin Mary’s plant. These flowers are popular for their golden colors which symbolize autumn. They show fondness and affection and can be exchanged between friends and family members.


November – Chrysanthemum

These flowers portray cheerfulness due to their vivid colors. In contrast to their bright appearance, they are associated with death and used on graves in Europe and Japan. In China, white chrysanthemums symbolize lamentation and mourning. But elsewhere, they reflect positivity, honesty and joyousness.


December – Poinsettia

Poinsettias are an important part of Christmas decorations. They symbolize success and good times. For the ancient Aztecs, they were a mark of purity. If you plan on gifting flowers during the festive season, you can never go wrong with colorful Poinsettias.

Unique flowers of the world


Unique flowers of the world

Floralis, the local online flower shop, delivers more than just flowers nationally in India and internationally to other countries worldwide. We have an eclectic collection of fresh flowers, bouquets, wreaths, cakes, candles, chocolates, artificial and dried flowers.

They are sure to add vibrancy and color to the recipients’ lives, giving them immense joy and a sense of fulfillment that comes with sharing the good things in life.
 

One such unique flower is the Anthurium. Anthuriums originally belong to tropical America, with close to 800 species found in northern Argentina, Mexico and Uruguay. Other common names of this heart-shaped flower are Flamingo Lily, Painted Tongue and Flamingo Flower. The flower is a modified leaf which flares out from the fleshy spike where the actual flowers grow. The stem reaches to a length of about 20 inches depending on the leaf’s size: the bigger the leaf, the longer the stem. These flowers are very attractive and popular among flower growers and lovers alike. At Floralis, you will find Anthuriums in different cuts and flower arrangements.
 

Another flower in this category is the Bird of Paradise, available exclusively at Floralis, the online flower shop. It is one of the most vibrant flowers around and originates from South Africa. The name has been derived from its spectacular shape which has an uncanny resemblance to a bird’s head and beak. The flower appears similar to a colorful bird in flight. Birds of Paradise are also called Crane Flowers and they bloom between September and May. The foliage is similar to banana leaves and has long petioles. The leaves of the plant follow a strict two rank arrangement to form a thick, glossy green crown making it an ideal ornamental plant. The Birds of Paradise plants usually grow 4 feet tall.
 

Calla Lilies are popular for wedding bouquets, and you will certainly spot one according to your liking at Floralis. They signify beauty and magnificence and hence their demand in matrimonial celebrations.  A Calla Lily flower has a very unique form which is very different from other varieties and helps it stand out. It comes in various colors of pink, yellow, purple, green and orange. Callas are also referred to as Trumpet Lily, Arum Lily and Pig Lily. They belong to southern Africa and are relatively easier to grow than other exotic plants. On average, a Calla Lily grows between 1 to 3 feet high. The leaves are 1.5 inches long and rich green. They look like arrowheads, with silver or white speckles. 
 
 

Calla Lilies make excellent houseplants, ideal for flower arrangements, bouquets, borders and beds. At Floralis, our expert florists put together elegant flower arrangements using Calla Lilies so that you can cherish those special occasions for a long time.
