Flowers for National Chicken Dance Day

My friends and I are always looking for an excuse to send each other fresh flowers. Knowing some of the funny daily holidays always give us a chance to surprise one another. After doing a little research I found out that May 15 is National Chicken Dance Day. My friends and I always get a laugh out of doing the Chicken Dance at weddings and parties. So, I thought what a great excuse to send flowers to my friends and remind them to do the Chicken Dance on May 15 and have a good laugh.

When I went to order flowers for each of my friends, I wanted an arrangement that they would all get a kick out of with a funny card attached. The florist was great in helping me pick out the right flowers for the bouquets. He suggested that daisies in an array of colors mixed in with some sunflowers would be a great combination for sending on National Chicken Dance Day to all of my crazy friends.

I have never ordered online flowers before and was a little worried about the quality. He quickly informed me that they were an FTD Member. Knowing that put my worries to rest right away. I knew that the arrangements would arrive on time and that florists that are members only use the freshest flowers in their bouquets.

Now with this funny holiday just a few short weeks away, I cannot wait to see the looks on their faces when they receive their daisy and sunflower bouquets. I know each of my friends will not only get a good chuckle out of it, they will also love displaying the fresh flowers on their desks at work. So put a smile on your friends' faces and send them a beautiful bouquet for one of those crazy and wacky holidays.

A Guide to Edible Flowers

It is so sad to see good flowers slowly wither up on the table, dry out and lose their usefulness. Wouldn’t it be much nicer if you could use your bouquet of flowers like a fruit basket, picking out what you like the look of, and sprinkling some petals over your dessert, or in your salad, etc. Om nom nom, says the Flower Monster! However, you should always exercise extreme caution when eating something that is not specifically sold as food. Today we give you a guide to edible flower bouquet parts.

Eat the whole flower

If you get any of the following blooms in a flower bouquet, you can happily make much better use of them than waiting for them to dry up and putting them in the bin!

• Fruit bolossoms
• Carnaitons
• Gardenias
• Violets
• Lavender
• Roses
• Peony
• Snapdragons

If you get any of the following flowers in a bouquet, you'll be able to eat the petals only:

• Calendula
• Chrysanthemum
• Cornflower
• Gladiolus
• Sunflower
• Safflower

Poisonous flowers

Knowing which parts of your flower bouquet can not be eaten is just as important as knowing which can.

• Aganpathus
• Anemone
• Arum lily
• Aalea
• Calla lily
• Crocus
• Daphne'Delphinium
• Ivy
• Hyacinth
• Iris
• Tulip
• Poppy
• Ranunculus
• Rhododendron

General safety notes

If your flower is not on the list, you should assume it is NOT safe to eat.

Always wash flowers first, even if they were grown in your own garden. You don't know what the birds and bees have been doing on them!
