A Better Florist: The Sylvia
This month has been such a beautiful floral explosion of smells and colours! I had the pleasure of getting in contact with A Better Florist a while ago, and got sent one of their popular new arrivals, The Sylvia ($61). The Sylvia boasts colourful flowers reflecting a wild side, with a tiny surprise in its varying selection. I couldn’t wait to check out what I’d receive!
In addition to the Protea, Strawflower, Snapdragons promised in the description, my bouquet included Carnations, Alstroemeria, and Chrysanthemums.
The bouquet came with a personalised card from the team. :)
It also came with an easy-to-understand flower care card!
This packet of flower food came taped to the end of my bouquet. It was my first time encountering flower food, which prolongs the life of your bouquet. The kind folks at A Better Florist sent me this how-to from their flower food manufacturer after I enquired about it.
Why use something else to stir your flower food mixture when you have multiple stirrers in the form of flower stalks.
My desk all spruced up. Thanks A Better Florist!
It was my day off when I received my bouquet, and so I got to spend some time dressing up for a shoot! I also had a dinner thingy to go to later that day, so it all worked out:
The vegetable garden playground in the neighbourhood got a fresh coat of paint! Here are previous posts I featured before the repaint.
This shot was all Ottie’s idea. Turned out pretty great.
Uncovered this photo taken last year.
Here’s my bouquet again a few days later – the carnations bloomed beautifully thanks to the flower food! Gonna have to start investing in these next time I buy flowers.

Wow the bouquet looks beautiful! There’s always something about flowers that makes people feel good~ Scrolling through these online floral sites can get really addictive and makes me feel like a kid in a candy store! The bouquets I came across at Floral Garage https://floralgaragesg.com/product/deluxe-freestyle-bouquet/ looks really pretty too ! Thinking of getting one to display on my dining table as they offer vase option too OMG!
