Grower Direct Celebrates 25 Years With New Website

EDMONTON, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - April 29, 2011) -Canada's largest flower delivery chain has launched a new and improved website with more information, contests, and pro advice than ever before.

For 25 years, grower Direct has been providing fresh, beautiful flowers to Canadians and now they've made it even easier to have flowers delivered anywhere in the world. GrowerDirect.com is now filled with valuable information about everything from the health benefits of flowers to which plants are toxic to your pets.

The site is now a one-stop floral information, education and shopping venue. Site visitors will have access to:

• Contests
• Grower Direct's FREE iPhone Flower App
• Sale Flowers (Mother's Day Flowers)
• Pro Floral tips
• Informational and educational flower articles and blogs

The launch of the new website marks 25 years since Grower Direct's launch in Canada, and CEO Doug Munro can't think of a better way to celebrate. "Grower Direct has always strived to provide Canadians with not only fresh and beautiful flowers at the best price possible, but also wants to instill and encourage a love and appreciation of flowers in all of our customers. We think the new website is an exciting way to help interact directly with the public and give them the information they need to appreciate how great flowers really are, and how easy it is to order fantastic flowers online."

Grower Direct started in 1986 as a venture from the back of a car and since evolved into Canada's largest flower delivery chain. Grower Direct's mission is to make the enjoyment of quality fresh cut flowers an affordable, every day event in people's homes and workplaces. GrowerDirect.com is the easiest way to follow this mission and show people how easy it is learn about and order flowers online.

Grower Direct has pioneered the concept of affordability and expertise in the retail floral business in Canada and provides a "stress-free" environment both online and at their retail locations for flower-lovers everywhere.
