Sending flowers to the person you love can be a headache, trying to choose from the multitude of options out there. Simply going to any of the big flower websites will cause you to be inundated with hundreds of different bouquets and options. How can you possibly pick the right flowers to say “I love you”? Here are a few ways to narrow it down!
- Start with the obvious – What is your love’s favorite flower? Are there a few? Depending on the type of flower, they may not be in season when you want to send your bouquet so they may set you back a bit more financially. They also may not be as beautiful as other blooms that are currently in season. So first weigh which is more important to you, the thoughtfulness of buying the specific flower or the breathtaking beauty of a fresh, in-season bouquet.
- Favorite color – If you know your love’s favorite color, this could be a great option, especially if you do not know their favorite flower or if that particular flower is not in bloom. A monochromatic bouquet can be stunning, or throw in a few accent colors. Either way, this is sure-fire way to get their attention and personalize the bouquet.
- To plant, or not to plant – If your love works in an office and has their own desk, you might consider sending a potted plant so that they can enjoy it and think of you throughout the year. Many florists have an array of potted options that are gorgeous, ranging from green plants, to simple orchids.
Remember to consider such things such as whether your love has any flower allergies, or dislikes any certain flowers. Regardless, the gesture of sending flowers is such a thoughtful one that it is sure to bring a smile to your love’s face!
