Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and if you’re looking for the perfect way to show Mum how much she means to you, flowers are always a winner. But with so many gorgeous blooms out there, how do you choose the right ones? Don’t worry—we’ve got you covered! Here’s everything you need to know to pick the perfect bouquet for Mum.
The Meaning Behind the Blooms
Flowers aren’t just pretty; they each have their own special meaning. Here are some of the most popular Mother’s Day flowers and what they represent:
Roses – Classic and timeless, roses symbolise love and appreciation. Soft pink roses are especially perfect for Mother’s Day, representing gratitude and joy.
Lilies – Elegant and fragrant, lilies symbolise devotion and kindness. If your mum loves something a little more sophisticated, these are a great pick.
Orchids – Exotic and long-lasting, orchids represent strength, beauty, and elegance—just like Mum!
Choosing the Right Colours
Just like different flowers have different meanings, so do colours! Here’s a quick guide to help you pick the perfect palette:
Pink – Love, gratitude, and admiration (a classic Mother’s Day choice!)
White – Purity, respect, and thoughtfulness
Yellow – Joy, warmth, and friendship
Purple – Elegance, admiration, and grace
Red – Deep love and respect (but often associated with romance, so use sparingly!)
Fresh vs Potted
Not sure what type of floral gift to go for? Here’s a quick breakdown:
Fresh Bouquets – Traditional and stunning, perfect for an immediate wow factor. Also a Mothers day classic gift.
Potted Plants – If she loves gardening, a beautiful orchid or lush indoor plant could be the perfect gift.
How to Level Up Your Flowers
Want to go the extra mile? Here are a few ideas to make your floral gift even more memorable:
Add a Personal Touch – A heartfelt card or a handwritten note goes a long way. We have a beautiful selection of cards to choose from.
Pair with a Gift – A box of chocolates, a bottle of bubbles, or Mum’s favourite tea can make your bouquet feel even more luxurious.
Choose a Bespoke Arrangement – Instead of grabbing a pre-made bunch, let us create something custom just for Mum!
