Azaela trees are in season, so many common grocery chains are selling them at a discount! I purchased one for $39.99 at Ralph's. Go grab one while you can!
What's great about this option is that it's more sustainable than a typical bouquet or vase arrangement you'd spend the same amount of money on. Those bouquets will unfortunately die faster. This tree may give your mom enjoyment in watering it each day and thinking of you - who knows!
Here are 4 super simple steps to spruce up your tree...
Step 1: [Optional] I removed the grocery store cellophane and covered my base in rope.
Step 2: Insert tiny flowers into the braided roots. We're going for an enchanted feel.
Step 3: Cover the soil with moss. You can purchase it at a craft store, or use any greenery you can find outside! Grass, weeds, shrubs.
Step 4: Insert additional flowers to the top. I used various shades of bougainvillea because I've seen lots of stray bushes around the neighborhood. I'm hoping you can find one to clip for free!
If you think of your tree top as a pie, mentally cut it into quarters and only insert bougainvillea to 2 of those quarters. If you cover the entire top, the variation won't be as special.
Note: Since the add-on flowers have no water source, decorate your tree the day-of gifting or presentation and inform your lady so she can remove as they wilt. Spray this with water to keep it lively in the heat.
Happy Mother's Day!!
