What are the Flowers that Fit Any Occasion?

Flowers have always been the most meaningful gifts that you can offer to someone. The symbolic representation of flowers ranges from the expression of love, expression of happiness, congratulatory remark to expression of grief. Having that in mind, what exactly are the flowers that can fit to certain types of occasions?

For baby showers

For baby showers, flowers such as lisianthus, lilies, tuberoses, roses and sea lavender are just the few options that can be arranged perfectly on a babyshower hamper. Any types of flowers that has pastel colours are a perfect fit for a baby shower. If the mother is expecting for a baby boy, light blue and white coloured flowers are the best choice. If the mother is expecting for a baby girl, then we have a wider variety of choices. On top of the list is pink roses matched with white lilies. Or, we can have yellow tulip and while daises. We can always mix and match.

For birthday celebrations

If we will talk about birthday flowers, we need to choose the ones with vibrant colours. Since flowers have different meanings and symbolizations, we need to pick the right ones to make the celebrant happy. One of the many options is to give a mixed bouquet. A mix of yellow tulips and gerbera daisies are the perfect option. It suits different types of personalities. If the birthday celebrant is the person you love, you need to mix lilies with red or orange roses to show a sign of love and passion. Iris bouquet is also an option especially mixed with roses. Since there are flowers that are associated with every months of the year, it is best to align your option with the birth month of the birthday celebrant.

January: Carnation symbolizes fascination

February: Iris symbolizes honour

March: Daffodil symbolizes care

April: Sweetpea symbolizes euphoric pleasure

May: Lilies symbolize humility

June: Rose symbolizes love and passion

July: Larkspur symbolizes lightness

August: Gladiolus symbolizes sincerity

September: Morning glory symbolizes charm

October: Cosmos symbolizes cheerfulness

November: Chrysanthemumsymbolizes confidence

December: Narcissus symbolizes tolerance

Grand opening bouquet

As far as grand opening flowers are concerned, silk flowers are the most recommended ones. There are a lot of florists that offer flower arrangements depending on what type of business openings are about to take place. Another option is to give Orchids of any type as long as they are presented into one lively bouquet. Sending live indoor greens is also a good gift option to start up business owners.


If we are going to give someone flowers, we also need to take into consideration the symbolic representation each flowers has. Gifts can be very meaningful especially if there is a symbolic meaning along with it.

Ordering the Right Birthday Flowers

Flowers are a thoughtful and charming way to send your birthday wishes to somebody else. Whether it is a girlfriend, a relative, or somebody you admire, flowers say a lot. When choosing the flowers for your recipient, however, you want to make sure you get something suitable.

When picking the right birthday flowers for your recipient, consider the following and you may find it much easier to handle;

Allergies
Does the recipient suffer from any allergic reactions to types of flowers? Ask friends and relatives to find out. The last thing you want to do is send a bouquet of flowers that send them to hospital!

The Right Style
The choices are very important in terms of color and style. There are so many blooms and selections out there it will give you a headache? What do you want to say? If you want a positive and happy response, go with something bright and grand.

If you are going for something a little more classic, then roses or lilies are the way to go. It all depends on what you want to say with your message – are you sending them as a friend, a loved one, or a relative?

Build the Surprise
Everybody, well most of us, loves surprises. It’s a fact – something you don’t expect that is nice is always a great way to set the day on a positive tone. Order your arrangement the day before and have them expressly delivered, message as well, to ensure that they arrive exactly when you want them to!

It’s nice to get them there nice and early in the morning, rather than ending up with them turning up just before dinner when the recipient was beginning to wonder where your present was!

The Message is Vital
A florist can help you put the right theme and message together aesthetically, but you need to write it yourself! Come up with something that means a lot to both of you, and ensure it is legible. If you have bad handwriting, get the florist to write it while you dictate the message.

The message is a very important part of the process – without it, the whole thing loses its edge a little. Getting that heartfelt message out there is a great way to build that genuine feeling and happiness that your present is supposed to generate.


So there you go – buying birthday flowers does not need to be too tough. Consider the above and make sure you just take your time and cut out all of the consequences in your mind. Avoid allergies, find the right colors, get them there on time and you will have the perfect birthday present!
