Easter greetings delivered by Peter Rabbit, with a little help from a florist

Clocks are set back and it’s sunny after work.

Flower shows are going on all over the country.

According to the calendar, the first day of a new season is next Thursday. Not that the snow in the Midwest abides by any deadline …

But spring is around the corner (really!) and, with spring, Easter. The holiday falls early this year and if you know someone who’s got snow up to the eyebrows right now, a sunny, cheerful bouquet of fresh-cut flowers for Easter is the perfect antidote to winter.

And who better to deliver them than Peter Rabbit himself? Check out Teleflora's Peter Rabbit™ bouquet – pink tulips, blue delphinium, pink spray roses – in a bright green ceramic watering can hand-painted in Beatrix Potter’s original colors ($54.95). Also, all Teleflora bouquets are hand-arranged and hand-delivered.

Peter Rabbit bouquet

I was drawn to this bouquet because I love all of Beatrix Potter’s books. Of course, her illustrations are very pretty, but what’s especially endearing is that the animal characters are so, well, human – many of them have little foibles and flaws that we can all relate to. I can’t wait to place my order; am going to do it tonight.

Bring back fond memories of the books, celebrate a new season and give a charming Easter gift that lasts long after the flowers.

Just don’t follow Peter’s example and gobble down too many garden veggies! :)
