Pick the perfect flower arrangement, flowers make a great all-occasion gift, flowers make everyone smile, and they’re a great way to show someone you’re thinking of them. They smell beautiful, look fresh and natural and don’t add a layer of Valentine’s Day fat to your hips. Valentine’s Day is one of the biggest flower-giving holidays, when you think Valentine’s Day; you think a dozen red roses. What would that romantic day be without a big, beautiful bouquet to show your sweetheart how much you love her or him. But one can gift other kinds of beautiful blooms too and not just red roses.
Daisies are the flowers of loyal love.
Daffodils are perfect for first dates and they demonstrate chivalry.
Dahlias for your female partner, they admire elegance.
Orchids are the perfect to gift to your male partner (for virility). Orchids are flowers of love and beauty. They can be given for practically any occasion to practically anybody. Orchids are universally appealing flowers that do not carry significant meaning for most occasions.
The Lily is the flower of purity and sweetness. Forget-me-nots declare true love great for spouses to gift each other.
Carnations are the flowers of fascination. They are an ideal flower to give to a romantic interest that has not yet blossomed into a relationship.
The Chrysanthemum is a flower of friendship, so it will be ideal for expressing romantic interest.
Cracking the colour code:
Red roses- say, “you are my true love” anything regarding love say it with red roses and there’s no such thing as too many roses. Indeed the power of “I love you” behind long stemmed red roses given to a significant other is a winner for any occasion, and is especially powerful when given on Valentine’s Day. The red rose signifies “romantic love.”
Blue roses say, “you are a mystery to me.”
White roses say, “this is eternal love” or “I’m happy to be silent with you.” White roses are the flowers of innocent love.
Yellow roses “we are friends ” or “I am betraying you.”
Black roses say, “I hate you” or “death has separated us.”
Pink roses shout you are full of grace and elegance. Pink roses are the flowers of secret love.
Lavender roses calmly say “this is love at first sight”.
So don’t show up with the wrong colour (friendly warning).
