Flowers say a lot – “I love you”, “I’m thinking of you”, “You’re beautiful”.
Nothing quite compares to the feeling you get when someone gives you flowers – and it feels great giving them too!
There are, however, certain flowers that are better suited to give to the different people in our lives, on their birthday. For your relatives – perhaps your mum,grandma or sister – think of bright, cheerful flowers such as daisies, wildflowers, lilies or tulips. For something with a touch of romance for your girlfriend or wife, red roses send a message of love or even a live plant to symbolise your growing and blossoming relationship.
And yes, you could ask them what their favourite flower is – but that just takes the fun out of the surprise. They are probably not going to leave the flower brochure on the coffee table, circled with their favourite bouquet choices.
But don’t worry – you can still score brownie points without ruining the surprise.
Follow our top five flower choices and you’ll have the special person in your life smiling on their birthday.
1. Lilies
Lilies represent happiness and positivity, making them the ideal birthday flower. Send your mum, grandma, sister or friend a bunch of lilies or even a Peace Lillie plant and light up her day!
2. Orchids
The exotic and stunning orchid conveys a special moment between, which means they’re a perfect surprise for your wife or girlfriend. Beauty, love and strength and common meanings associated with the orchid, and come in variety of gorgeous colours.
3. Roses
Roses need no introduction – but their colours might. Red, of course, symbolises romantic love, beauty, respect and passion. But you might no know that white represents purity, innocence and youth; yellow of joy, friendship and new beginnings; and pink speaks of appreciation, happiness and admiration. Yellow and pink roses are great flowers to give to friends.
4. Gladiolus
The Gladiolus flower expresses your infatuation. Tell your wife or girlfriend that you’re relationship is strong, full of character and honourable by giving her a bouquet of Gladiolus.
5. Gerberas
Brighten your friend’s day with a bouquet of gerberas. Representing innocence and cheerfulness, they’re a great all-rounder flower for the birthday that can be given to women of any age.
Stop and smell the roses – or taste the chocolate!
