{pp}Special promotion on seasonal flowers from Interflora South Africa

Interflora South Africa is currently running a promotion on a range of seasonal flowers. This special selection of flower arrangements features irises, roses, tulips, daffodils and other winter flowers. This promotional offer runs until August 2009 and offers clients a selection of well-priced fresh cut flowers available for this limited time only.

Local seasonal flowers are not only beautiful but carry other benefits for both the client and the local economy. Seasonal flowers are aesthetically appealing, fresh and support local industry. The seasonal range from Interflora uses flowers available in South Africa during the winter for their arrangements. The flowers are grown and picked locally and do not need to be imported from foreign countries with different climates. Due to this, the flowers do not spend as much time in transit as imported flowers do and are fresher when they arrive at the recipient.

"Interflora South Africa provides a very wide and eclectic selection of products for our clients. We are very proud of our catalogue which includes local flowers and also exotic flowers from international locations. Imported flowers are typically not grown in South Africa and are unavailable during certain seasons. We are able to make the impossible possible by importing these flowers, but we have taken a keen interest in supporting the local flower industry," says Sharon Louw, CEO of Interflora South Africa.

"South Africa has a stunning assortment of flowers grown locally and the Cape has one of the six floral kingdoms of the world. Our country is not short of beautiful flowers to use in our catalogue and our special promotion of seasonal flowers is an opportunity for us to provide local flowers to clients whilst supporting our local floriculturalists," says Louw. "Interflora South Africa is proudly South African and our seasonal flower range helps us to showcase what this country has to offer whilst providing the high standard of service and customer satisfaction that we are renowned for."

Seasonal flowers give Interflora South Africa the opportunity to continue making fast, fresh deliveries of striking and popular arrangements whilst utilising local businesses. Seasonal flowers are an aid to boosting the local economy as they are grown and picked locally, this in turn provides employment and income for local communities.
