Flowers Found Instead of Bought: Lonely Bouquet Day in Vienna
"The Lonely Bouquet Day is a wonderful opportunity to spontaneously bring joy to people with floral surprises," says Herbert Eipedlauer, guild master of the Viennese gardeners and florists. "Last year, there were around 600 bouquets - the positive response was overwhelming. That's why we're stepping it up this year."
Around 1,000 Floral Greetings Hidden in Vienna
The small bouquets will be placed in public places in the city, ready to be found and taken. With this, the Viennese florists are setting a blooming sign for attentiveness, kindness - and the high art of flower arranging.
"Flowers speak a universal language - they touch, connect, and bring color to everyday life. That's exactly what we want to achieve with this action," Eipedlauer continues: Additionally, the recipients can be convinced of the high craftsmanship quality of our products through the floral presents. I am pleased that our Viennese florists are participating in the Lonely Bouquet Day again."
Lonely Bouquet Day: From Idea to International Action
The Lonely Bouquet Day was initiated by the American Emily Avensen, who lives in Belgium, where she runs a flower picking garden. Her idea, which she posted on various social media platforms, quickly found many imitators worldwide. Since then, blooming attentions are prepared on the last Sunday in June to bring joy to strangers.
