Mother’s Day is just around the corner and what better gift than to go back to basics by gifting them flowers? Being a mother can be tiring since there are many responsibilities to uphold. To show some appreciation for your hardworking mothers, here are some recommendations for flowers for Mother’s Day!
Tulips
Tulips have a variety of meanings which varies according to the color you select. Purple is associated with royalty whereas red is often associated with love. Pink is usually connected with love, whereas white can be used to represent joy or regret. Tulips are available in a broad range of colors, styles, and sizes, including French and lily-fringed. Just like how special and unique each mother is, tulips are the ultimate spring flower that will bring a smile to your mother’s face no matter what type or color you choose!
Carnations
If you didn’t know, carnations are the flower that started Mother’s Day. Anna Jarvis, the founder of Mother’s Day, had delivered 500 white carnations to every mother in the West Virginia congregation on the anniversary of her mother’s death back in 1907. Just like how there are different colors, there are different meanings to them. White carnations represent unconditional love and good luck, whereas pink carnations represent a mother’s affection. These two colors are a suitable choice when gifting carnations to your mother. They are also one of the long-lasting cut flowers available, which means that your present will most likely last.
Peonies
Peonies come in a variety of colors, including pink, red, white, and even purple. This burst of colors makes it a lovely flower arrangement for your mother. These flowers are symbolic of a range of things from good fortune to happy marriages, they are the ideal gift for your lovely mother. Peonies can also grow to be rather enormous, so a bouquet of these is sure to be a show-stopper. They also have a strong and lovely aroma!
Orchids
The orchid is a must-get for mothers who are fashionable and trendy. They are definitely the flower to get for women who enjoy new styles, exotic fashion, and bright hues. Orchids are the most ‘evolved’ of flowering plants and they come in a wide range of sizes and colors. They are also a simple and easy houseplant to maintain, which is perfect for mothers who want to keep it in their homes. If you’re wondering which color to get, choose pink as it symbolizes elegance, femininity, and poise.
Roses
Go back to basic with roses! Roses are a classic gift for almost any celebration which makes them an excellent present for traditional mothers. Instead of a red rose, choose pink as it stands for appreciation, love, and gratitude. White roses are also a good choice since they represent purity while cream-colored roses represent thoughtfulness.
