Spring will be here before we know it, and what better way to bring a little sunshine into your fog-filled day than with a free bunch of tulips? San Francisco is celebrating Flower Bulb Day on March 4 this year, with a display of more than 100,000 tulips in Union Square. Visit the temporary Tulip Garden for the colorful sights and smells, and take home some tulip bulbs to plant in a pot for an early spring at home.
Bonus – International Women’s Day is only days later on March 8, so share the love with a free gift to the ladies in your life!

Going Green With GreenTree

It sounds counter-intuitive, but having some types of plant life in your apartment actually have harmful impacts on the environment. Cut flowers (the kind in a vase) are an easy gift and a quick way to brighten your home, but they wilt quickly (ending up in the trash compost bin only days later) and provide high carbon emissions from their refrigeration and transport. Instead of buying grocery store flowers, decorate with potted flowers or house plants to reduce your carbon footprint as they filter the air. Flower Bulb Day in Union Square is a beautiful time to start with free bulbs to plant at home!
