Buying flowers for
Mother’s Day is often a difficult thing to do. It is the one time of year where
you become a flower expert, wondering which ones are the best and deciding whether
your mother would indeed like the bouquet that you are thinking about buying.
But, if you take the time to choose flowers carefully, we are sure your mother
will love the flowers you choose.
To help you with
this big choice, we’ve decided to bring together our top picks for the very
best flowers that you can send your Mum on Mother’s Day.
Gerberas
Gerberas are a fantastic bouquet to buy. They may might not be the most well-known, but they are a type of flower that is known for conveying feelings of both happiness and joy. Gerberas are also known to be particularly related to children, as they are thought to be representative of children’s innocent hearts, which makes it particularly poignant for Mother’s Day. These flowers not only look great, but also send a nice message of love to your Mum.
Roses
Roses are not normally
associated with Mother’s Day, as many consider them just for Valentine’s Day. There
are many different colours of rose to choose from, so they don’t
necessarily need to be red. For Mother’s Day, you may wish to choose yellow or
orange roses.
Lilies
Lilies are big and beautiful,
and they are certainly expressive flowers which makes for a great Mother’s Day
surprise. Expressive flowers could be considered an expression of love for your
mother. This is why we would recommend that you consider Lilies.
Orchids
Orchids are a great
gift to give on Mother’s Day, because if cared for, they can then turn into
house plants. It is thought that in Chinese tradition that Orchids signify
“many offspring”, which makes it the perfect flower to give on Mother’s Day.
Alstroemerias
Alstroemerias are
a little known flower, but they are wonderfully colourful and long
lasting. Again, a message of ever-lasting love can be conveyed with these
flowers.
Carnations
Carnations are arguably the most traditional flowers to send
to your mum on Mother’s Day. Carnations are bright and expressive, and there
are many different colours that you can choose from.
