Flowers are remarkable things. Scientists reckon that the whole reason we can distinguish color is because in the jungle we needed to identify different flowers, edible versus poisonous etc, and we did so by spotting vibrant reds or yellows or blues.
Flowers also smell really nice. Perfume is made from crushed up rose petals etc, and generally speaking the nicest smells we ever experience are found in the head of a flower. But have you ever left a bunch of daffodils in water too long, so that they go rotten? What once smelt beautifully, becomes a horrible, putrid smell.
This is entirely the problem. Despite the beauty and scent of a real flower, it is necessarily temporary. Over time a flower will begin to wilt, will cease to be beautiful and become more of a problem than a gift.
If you incorporate flowers into your business, e.g. your office or hotel, then the maintenance involved in keeping real flowers might be prohibitive. There is an alternative of course, and you might choose silk flowers and floral arrangements, which are beautiful and low maintenance.
Until they invent the immortal rose, the closest we’ve got is an artificial flower. These are flowers that are constructed from materials like silk to mimic the natural beauty of a real bloom. They are very cheap and require minimal maintenance, making them a more practical solution in all sorts of situations, hotel foyers, offices and homes.
