Flowers are some of my absolute favorite things. I love how they bring color, scent, and a sense of whimsy wherever they go. They evoke emotion and add beauty to their surroundings. They connect me back to nature and always bring me joy.
Josh has learned to indulge my love of flowers. While I love flowers on a holiday or special occasion, my favorite flowers are the kind that are given just because.
As much happiness as flowers bring, I’m sure we’ve all had a disappointing flower ordering experience before. The kind of experience where the flowers showed up half dead, looked nothing like the pictures, or you received a bill for more than you were expecting thanks to crazy delivery charges. Those kinds of experiences are not fun.
Thanks to Zinnia, we don’t have to worry about all that when ordering flowers anymore! Zinnia is a new floral company servicing Omaha, Council Bluffs, and very soon, Kansas City. Their mission is flowers simplified. They offer a selection of season-appropriate, curated bouquets that are fresh and beautiful. Their flowers are placed in water tubes with flower food before being wrapped in burlap and affixed with a handwritten note before being sent out for delivery.
They streamline the flower buying process by offering a small selection of flower arrangements, selling them all for $35, and including free same-day delivery. The logic behind their business, and the stunning bouquets they produce, makes you wonder why more floral shops don’t operate this way.
Zinnia just added some new fall arrangements to their site. I am in love with The Scarlet Bouquet.
Zinnia bouquets are absolutely stunning. I see myself decorating my office with flowers from them frequently in the future.

Questions of the Day: Are you a fan of fresh flowers? Does a service like Zinnia appeal to you? Would you choose The Bliss Bouquet or The Julie Bouquet?

I would totally use this service. Living downtown Omaha it is hard to find fresh flowers weekly for our home. I end up driving too far and spending too much.

What gorgeous flowers! I love that Zinnia has clear and up-front pricing, which includes delivery. It’s such a bummer to think you’re getting a great deal on flower delivery only to learn that delivery is an addition $20+. I’d definitely try this service out if it came to Orlando.
Anna says
LOVE your dress. All of those flowers are gorgeous. 🙂

I hate receiving half dead flowers. I too am a flower lover. Flowers brighten up any room and it just makes me feel good all over. I use to work at a nursery and it was then that my love and respect for nature and flowers grew. This is a beautiful article and I appreciate you sharing it with us.
