Cheer in a Jar: A Jarful of Bright, Happy Flowers
Some gifts have to try hard to lift a mood. A jar of colour does it on arrival. Cheer in a Jar is exactly that, a glassful of bright flowers in a jar built to make someone grin: orange roses, true-blue delphinium, pink limonium and snapdragons, all lit up with sprigs of lime-green solidago. We arrange it stem by stem in a clear glass jar, tied with a little twine, so it lands ready to stand on a desk or a kitchen table with no vase to find. Our florists put every jar together by hand in our Claremont studio, the way we have since 1999, and it is backed by a 5.0 Trustpilot rating and thousands of five-star Loox reviews. Find more in our flowers in a jar, our mixed flower bouquets and the full roses range.
Cheer in a Jar at a Glance
- Palette: a happy mix of orange, blue, pink and lime green
- Signature blooms: orange roses, blue delphinium, pink limonium, snapdragons and solidago
- Style: arranged stem by stem in a clear glass jar, tied with twine
- Best for: get-well, a birthday, a thank-you, or a just-because pick-me-up
- Made fresh: arranged in our Claremont studio, same-day across Cape Town and Joburg
Colour in a glass. The kind of gift that lifts a whole room.
What Is in the Jar
The whole idea here is happy contrast. We start with orange roses for warmth, run tall blue delphinium up through the middle for height and a proper pop of colour, then soften the edges with pink limonium, pink snapdragons and a few stems of alstroemeria. Lime-green solidago threads through the gaps and keeps the whole thing looking just-picked rather than formal. Because we build to the season, the exact mix shifts a little through the year while the bright, cheerful feel stays the same. If you like a specific bloom in here, our delphiniums and orange flowers are worth a look, and our what is a rose guide is a nice read. It sits in good company with the rest of the jar family: Joy in a Jar, Glee in a Jar, Happiness in a Jar and Sunshine in a Jar.
Arranged in a Jar, Ready to Display
Every jar is arranged by hand and delivered in its glass jar, already in water, so there is nothing to unwrap or arrange at the other end. That makes it a kind gift for someone who is busy, unwell, or simply would rather not hunt for a vase: it arrives looking finished. When the flowers are done, the jar is a keeper, good for the next bunch from the garden or a windowsill of its own.
When to Send a Jar of Cheer
This is the bouquet for good, everyday reasons to smile. It is one of our favourite get-well flowers, bright enough to change the feel of a sick room, and it makes happy birthday flowers for someone who loves colour. Send it as congratulations flowers for good news, as a thank-you that feels personal, or just because someone could do with a lift.
Same-Day Delivery in Cape Town and Joburg
Order before 12pm, Monday to Saturday, and we deliver Cheer in a Jar the same day across Cape Town and Johannesburg. We arrange it fresh on the day, so even a late order arrives looking its best. Want the colours turned up, or a calmer mix? Add a note at checkout or email hello@fabulousflowers.co.za and we will build it around you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What flowers are in Cheer in a Jar?
It is a bright seasonal mix, usually orange roses, blue delphinium, pink limonium, snapdragons, alstroemeria and lime-green solidago, arranged in a glass jar. The exact flowers shift a little with the season while the cheerful, colourful look stays the same.
Does it come arranged in the jar?
Yes. It is arranged stem by stem in a clear glass jar and delivered already in water, so it arrives finished and ready to display. There is no vase to find and nothing to arrange.
What flowers are best to cheer someone up?
Bright, mixed flowers in warm and bold colours are the most uplifting, which is why this jar leans on orange, blue and pink. The variety and the colour are what lift a mood, and a jar you do not have to unpack makes it easy for the person receiving it.
How long will it last?
With clean water, a fresh trim every couple of days and a spot out of direct sun, expect a week or more. Our flower care guide covers the details, and topping up the water in the jar keeps it looking its best.
Is it a good get-well gift?
Yes, it is one of our most popular get-well gifts. The colour does the cheering, and because it arrives arranged in its own jar, there is nothing for the recipient to sort out. Our get-well flowers guide has more ideas.
Can I get same-day delivery in Cape Town and Joburg?
Yes. Order before 12pm, Monday to Saturday, for same-day delivery across Cape Town and Johannesburg. As a fresh jar arrangement it is delivered within these two cities rather than couriered nationwide.

Fabulous Flowers and Gifts Fresh Flowers Care Instructions
Find a Vase: Your lovely blooms need a drink! Put them in your favourite vase with fresh water as soon as possible.
Trim Those Stems: Keep those stems fresh by cutting them at an angle. This allows more water up the stem. Checking and trimming the stems every few days will keep them sound.
Gently Strip Leaves: Remove any excess leaves, especially from the part of the stem that will be submerged. This helps to avoid rot and bacteria, which can shorten your flowers life span.
Remove Old Blooms: Drooping flowers release ethylene gas, which may accelerate the aging of other flowers. Strip off any dead or dying flowers to keep the rest of the bouquet looking bright and fresh.
Keep Them Cool: Place your flowers away from heat sources such as heaters, televisions, or ovens to retain the beauty of your flowers.
Clean Water: Always place your flowers in clean water. Refresh your vase with water daily or at least every second day.
Storage Tips: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to keep contents in perfect condition.
Handling with Care: Handle this box gently so as not to damage the delicate items inside.
Freshening: If your gift includes foods or beverages, please refer to the individual product use-by and expiry dates and the informational materials regarding storage recommendations:
Watering: Ensure your plants are hydrated but avoid overwatering. Check the soil moisture regularly and water it when the top inch feels dry.
Light: Place your plants in a spot where they receive the appropriate amount of light. Some prefer bright, indirect light, while others thrive in low-light conditions.
Feeding: Feed your plants with a balanced fertiliser every few weeks during the growing season to keep them healthy and vibrant.
Pruning: Regularly remove dead leaves and trim back overgrown branches to encourage new growth and maintain the plant shape.
Humidity: Some plants thrive in high humidity. If needed, mist your plants occasionally or place a humidifier nearby to create a favourable environment.
Dusting: Your artificial flowers and botanicals should be lightly dusted regularly with a soft cloth or feather duster.
Light Washing: For deeper cleaning, please use a cloth lightly dampened with water and a small amount of mild detergent. Gently wipe the leaves and petals.
Avoid Direct: Sunlight Do not place under direct sunlight in order to prevent colours from fading.
Fluff and Arrange: Just fluff up petals and leaves to remain fluffy. Set them in position as desired to look natural.
Personalize: Gift your flowers, Gift Boxes, and Artificial Flowers and Plants with the Care They Deserve; they will be a Source of Joy and Elegance for you. The charm of fresh flowers, the delight of a thoughtful gift box, and the endless beauty of an artificial plant all special moments created by Fabulous Flowers and Gifts.
