The first week of May is a big one in the gift giving and unofficial observance and celebration world. National Nurses’ Week starts on Sunday, May 6 and ends on Saturday, May 12. National Nurses’ Day is observed on May 12 because that date marks the birth of Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing as a profession. Although there may be no intended coincidence in the fact that National Teacher Appreciation Week takes place between May 7 and May 11, or the fact that National Teacher Day occurs on May 8, it’s convenient that these two week-long events that pay homage to professionals who don’t get the recognition that they deserve. The Schaaf Floral team is ready to be of service to anyone who wants to express their appreciation towards teachers and nurses with the gift of flowers.

Our Daisies & Roses design is an ideal gift for a teacher’s desk or a nurse’s station because of its compact size. Pink roses and pink Gerbera daisies go beautifully together as they are, but our mercury glass cube dresses the arrangement up and gives it an elegant and sophisticated touch. It’s a thoughtful gift to use to express your appreciation, gratitude, and respect for the things that nurses and teachers have done and the impact that their efforts have had on your life.

We encourage people throughout our community to join in the nationwide celebration that honors teachers and nurses in the same week. Let the Schaaf Floral team help you choose one of our existing flower arrangements or customize one that will convey your gratitude and appreciation in style.
