College is equal parts incredible and intense, with midnight study sessions, awkward icebreakers, new roommates, and way too much microwave mac and cheese (no judgments!). It’s easy for students to get caught in the chaos, which is why a surprise bouquet can do the most. It says “I’m proud of you,” “I’m thinking of you,” or “just breathe,” always in their moment of need. Flowers and plants also boost energy levels, improve concentration, and spark joy, according to science. Swenson & Silacci in Salinas, California makes it super easy to send love, no occasion required — just a bit of beauty with big impact.

Send Floral Subscriptions to Enhance Senior Year Memories

One minute it’s first-year move-in, the next it’s senior year and they’re adulting like pros. They may be planning capstone projects, running clubs, or hunting for dream jobs — but in between the big stuff, don’t let them forget to pause and treasure the moment. A monthly bloom delivery adds a dose of luxury and balance, helping them hold onto every little joy that comes with their final lap around campus. If any year deserves to be celebrated, this is 100 percent it!

Celebrate Welcome Week with Fresh Flowers

Welcome Week is a lot, for sure; it’s a mix of hellos, high-fives, checklists, and those last emotional big box store runs. The whole thing kicks off with a bang, but when the dorm door closes and the dust settles, even the most confident (on the outside, anyway) students might feel that little lump in their throat. A sweet bouquet of flowers helps ease that moment, so have one sent to their room to surprise them. It’s cheerful, comforting, and sweetly says, “You’re not alone.”

Send Green Plants for Grad Students’ Study Spaces

If grad students had a flex, it would be sleep-deprived, overcommitted, and somehow still standing. With TA duties, side hustles, and deadlines piling high, they’ve got a lot on their minds (and maybe not much light in their space). That’s why sending a green buddy like a succulent or hearty snake plant is such a boss move. They’re tough, tidy, and proven to boost brainpower and well-being. They also add a splash of calm — and a little love — to their humble space.

Honor Greek Life Milestones with Fresh Florals

There’s so much more to sorority and fraternity life than late-night playlists and matching shirts, trust. It’s the sisterhood brunches, formal banquets, charity auctions, and those legacy-loving anniversaries that bring all that magic, every single time. Sending a gorgeous bouquet to the chapter house on one of those big days? Total game-changer. It zhuzhes up the space, boosts the mood, and makes your favorite member the talk of the house in the best possible way. Who needs confetti when you’ve got petals?

Cheer on Your Favorite College Athlete with Flowers After a Great Season

NCAA schedules. Team bonding. Training like a machine. Being a college athlete is not for the faint of heart! And those in leadership are basically superheroes, hitting goals, crushing PRs, and still managing to handle life off the field. So yeah, finishing a season isn’t just a milestone, it’s an entire moment. Celebrate it with something unexpected but oh-so-fitting: a gorgeous floral arrangement, just for them. It’s the perfect way to say, “You’ve earned your flowers and then some!”

There’s nothing small about the college experience! It’s big on growth, goals, and a whole lot of winging it. That’s why it’s the perfect time to send blossoms that show them they can do it. At Swenson & Silacci, we make it easy to sweeten their days and share the joy.
