Deciding what flowers to give someone for a specific occasion can be difficult. Certain flowers pair well with different occasions, and it may be hard to know which flowers to get someone. If you have ever been to a flower shop just aimlessly wandering the store wondering what to get someone, this guide is for you.
What I love about flowers is that they are such an easy and timeless gift, that anyone will love and appreciate. You can buy someone flowers for almost any occasion and they will always be loved.
Mother's Day
I love getting my mom flowers every year because it allows me to show my appreciation for my mother on mother’s day by getting her a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
- Tulips are one of my favorite flowers to get my mom, they are a representation of spring, and their bright colors are always so happy.
- Lilies are also very beautiful and can look very elegant, and like tulips their bright colors can light up a room.
Anniversary
Buying your significant other flowers on your anniversary to show your continuous love for them, will always be a very thoughtful gift.
- Red Roses are a symbol of love and romance and are a classic flower to get someone for your anniversary.
Get Well Soon
This is to show that you are there for someone and that you care about them.
- Chrysanthemums or carnations are always so beautiful with their bright colors and if the person is sick these flowers are great because their pollen is inside the flower and not exposed.
- Yellow Roses will help cheer their spirits and will show that you wish them a speedy recovery.
Birthday
Getting someone flowers for their birthday when maybe you don’t know what else to get them, is always a great go- to gift that anyone will love.
- If you know their favorite color, getting them a bouquet that is their favorite color could be a great birthday gift.
