Why Are Flowers a Popular Choice for Sending as a Valentine’s Gift?

Celebrating Valentine’s Day is a unique experience for any couple, with many different traditions being observed. However, sending and receiving flowers is a popular practice that dates back to the 18th century when floral blooms were first sent as a way to convey non-verbal messages in Sweden. 

 

There is something truly special about the unsaid word with symbolism often sending a much stronger message. Flowers are a fantastic way to achieve this as each bloom holds its own sentiment and story. From traditional red roses which represent love and passion to orchids which are a symbol of strength and charm, each flower offers its own way of sending a love-filled message.

What Flowers Are Normally Selected for Valentine’s Day Arrangements?

Although any flowers and foliage can be included within a stunning Valentine’s display, the most common blooms include:

 

Red, White and Pink Roses

Orchids

Tulips

Peonies

Carnations

And Ranunculus

 

However, it’s also a special idea to pay attention to your loved ones floral preferences as it may well be that a different bloom may hold a deeper meaning. 

Tips for Choosing the Right Flowers for Valentine’s Day

If you want to plan the perfect floral display for your loved one this Valentine’s Day, we recommend you consider the following:

Pay Attention to Hidden Meanings

As mentioned, each flower has its own meaning. While this may be something you are not aware of, the recipient may be clued up on these representations, which means selecting something that sends the right message is essential. Any flowers that represent love, life, vitality and strength are also ideal for selecting during the season of love.

Select Fresh and Quality Flowers

One of the most important considerations, beyond the actual flowers being chosen, is ensuring that blooms are fresh. The best way to achieve this is to choose a local florist and plan the delivery date wisely. At Kimberleys the Florist, we offer delivery across Somerset and wider areas at a time that suits you. Not only does this mean that blooms make the right impression, but it also ensures they stay fresher for longer, allowing them to be enjoyed for a good amount of time after the 14th.

Add a Personal Note

Adding a personal note is the perfect way to add a thoughtful finishing touch. Whether this includes a heartfelt monologue or a simple word that has a hidden meaning, adding messaging to flowers further enhances the impact they can make.
