Instagram content creator Zachery Dereniowski recently decided to spread joy in the sweetest way and purchased 1000 long stemmed red roses from Girard Flowers and Gifts in Windsor, Ontario. In order to bring smiles on the faces of elderly residents of a local retirement home, Zachery surprised them with roses for each member. Touched by his mission, the flower shop owner reduced the rose price from $6 to $3 per stem. He arrived at the retirement home with roses and personally handed a flower to each resident. The gesture brought various emotions, some were touched and emotional, while others expressed genuine happiness. The influencer received smiles, thanks and one resident even moved to tears, giving a hug to Zachery.
Zachery initially wanted to buy 1000 roses, but the flower shop owner mentioned that they only had 100 beautiful red roses available. The content creator agreed to purchase the available roses and when he shared the purpose behind the large order, the kind shop owner was deeply moved by his idea and she decided to give a generous discount for his initiative to bring happiness to the elders. Sharing the heart touching post, Zachery wrote, “I love roses. Thank you Girard Flowers for helping me surprise beautiful strangers today with roses. Please give them your love on their IG page and leave Girard & Co. Flowers & Gifts in Windsor, ON a 5-star Google Review.”
