If someone has ever sent you fresh flowers, or even if you bought them for yourself, you know how different they make your apartment or townhome feel. And that feeling isn’t just there when you receive them, it stays the whole time you have them in your home. That’s because flowers are scientifically proven to improve your mood, reduce stress, and improve your health.

Author Hans Christian Anderson said, “Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.” And because we can always use a little more beauty in our lives, we’re big fans of bringing home fresh flowers whenever you can.

If you have a balcony, you can start a container garden to grow your own flowers, but that will only cover you forRochester’s warmer months. One great option for fresh flowers is to visit Stacy K Floral on Russell Street. They’re a VIP Program partner, which means VIDA residents get 10% off their purchases (excluding weddings).

Stacy K Floral offers fresh flowers, plants, gift baskets, cards and books, and even Rochester City merchandise. If you want to have fresh flowers throughout the year, they also offer a floral subscription program with lots of options. If you’ve never been to Stacy K Floral, stop by the next time you’re in the Neighborhood of the Arts and put a little more beauty in your life.
