With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we find ourselves preparing for one of the busiest retail flower holidays of the year. The truth is, there is nothing quite like a surprise delivery of beautiful fresh flowers to your workplace or home. Fresh flowers evoke strong feelings of being loved and appreciated. This classic gift not only makes the recipient feel adored but University research shows flower givers are considered likable, friendly and successful. Moreover, flower givers make up only 25% of the US population, putting you in an exclusive group of those who consider the art of flower giving a time honored tradition which they wish to perpetuate.

This Valentine’s Day say “I Love You” with flowers. Here are a few notes we hope you find helpful when choosing the perfect gift this holiday.

Classic Red Roses: A dozen (or more) brilliant red roses is most closely associated with Love more than any other floral gift. More often this gift is reserved for lovers, spouses, life partners and the like.

Gerbera Daisies and Tulips: A youthful floral combination, the gerbera and tulip are available in many striking colors, not least of all red and pink tones in keeping with the holiday. These blooms can be designed in a traditional taller vase or in compact low style cube or cylinder. This is the perfect gift for an early romance, child, parent or other relation.

Orchids: Available in many verities, orchids symbolize fertility and wealth. They are beautiful when designed as a standalone bloom, for instance, a single submerged stem of cymbidium orchids in a taller vessel or as grouping of blooms with grasses and other textures most popularly created with the smaller dendrobium orchid.

Living Plants: If your lover has a green thumb, the beauty of an artfully potted phalaenopsis orchid or red anthurium will make the perfect unique and thoughtful gift. With no two ever alike, these are a lasting gift which will far outstretch the life cycle of cut flowers. Living plants are symbolic of growth and resiliency making them a natural paring for a gift of lasting love.
