Memorial Day

A New Leaf Floral in Canby provides a Memorial Day service to local cemeteries. There is a variety of options when placing something special at a monument. We do monument saddles/toppers, planters, fresh flowers, and silk flowers. If requested, we will deliver and pick up your memorial item for you. This is especially helpful when family members are out of the area. We will even store, replace, and/or repair your memorial item for you if you have a memorial silk piece. Over time the sun and weather will make your memorial item less attractive, and occasionally replacing or repairing needs to be done to your memorial item to keep it looking nice. Once you begin this service with us, you will be sent a reminder postcard every year in early May asking you if you would like to continue this service. A New Leaf Floral currently services almost 60 monuments with a wide variety of items. A New Leaf Floral can do it from start to finish. We can create your memorial item, deliver it, pick it up, store it, and replace and/or repair it, and we will even send you a reminder the next year. We currently service Canby, Minneota, and other local cemeteries. Please contact us for delivery charges and service areas.

 

Greenhouse Plants

Spring has officially arrived at A New Leaf Floral! Our greenhouse is being kept off-site this year because of our brand new parking lot, but don’t worry we will have our usual selection of beautiful greenhouse plants behind our flower shop. This year all the plants will be outside on carts, so it will be easier shopping! No hot greenhouse to enter. We will also have a nice selection of potted plants out back on our patio. Our potted blooming and green plants make for a great gift! If you are interested in our Memorial Day delivery service please ask. More information on that coming soon!

Greenhouse

Greenhouse plants at A New Leaf Floral will hopefully be coming the week of April 23rd. We are waiting for the weather to warm up, so that our greenhouse plants will have the best chance to thrive. We will have a good selection of plants, and we will have new hanging baskets this year. Our hanging baskets will include several types of plants in each basket, and should be very beautiful with all the colors. It’s never too early to start thinking about Mother’s Day and Memorial Day. We have a special Memorial Day service, and information on that service will be available on the website when we get into the month of May. Think Spring and warm temperatures!

Rose Petals Help The Feet

The next time your husband gets you roses from A New Leaf Floral in Canby you can do something with those leftover rose petals. After the roses have lost their luster take the rose petals (six roses or more works best), and put them in your hand and crush them. After you have crushed them, drop them into a bowl of warm water and soak your feet for 10 minutes. When you crush the rose petals it releases oils that are in the petals, which helps soften rough skin on your heels. We always have a good supply of roses at the flower shop in Canby.

A New Leaf Floral Blog

Welcome to A New Leaf Floral’s Blog! We are excited about our website, blog and the year of 2012. Towards the end of the 2011 year A New Leaf Floral decided to change its logo and color schemes. We enlisted the help of internationally recognized designer Michael Cina of Cina and Associates. Michael Cina’s design portfolio includes many prominent Fortune 500 companies including Apple, American Express, ESPN, Pepsi, Coke, Hewlett Packard, Microsoft, Mazda, and Victoria’s Secret. Cina’s work is consistently featured in numerous publications and he has spoken at many global design conferences about his unique vision for design. Here is his website if you’d like to know more.

Our decision to do a logo change coincided with our decision to create a website for our customers. We took the colors that we chose for our website, and made sure that our new logo consisted of those colors.  Here is a picture of our new sign.

The next step was to paint the front of our shop with those same colors.

While that was being completed we made the decision to update our graphics on our van. We went from magnets with our old logo, to vinyl stickers with our new logo, website information, and some of the cities that we serve.

The final step, which is the one currently in progress, is painting the inside of the flowers shop.

We hope that you stop by and see us! We are available at 126 St. Olaf Ave. N. (main street) in Canby, complete our contact form, by phone at 507-223-7333, and by email at anewleaffloral@gmail.com.

We appreciate you!!
