Holidays That Flowers Are a Great Gift For

Flowers are a great gift for any occasion. These works of nature come in many species, colors, and scents. According to The Right Flowers, orchids are a beloved flower to give since they're versatile and last a long time. Whether you buy orchids, gardenias, roses, or sunflowers, you have reasons to visit a flower shop for a holiday gift. Here are the best holidays to buy a floral gift for.

Valentine's Day

On February 14th, couples celebrate a day devoted to romance. As you're trying to call every restaurant in town to see if they still have any reservations open, remember to place your order for red long-stem roses at your local flower shop. Did you know over 250 million roses were produced for Valentine's Day in 2019? Don't worry, you have permission to get a different type of flower that day, but roses are almost as much a part of the holiday as a box of chocolate is!

Mother's Day

What better way to show gratitude to the woman who gave you life than by giving her a beautiful symbol of life and nature with flowers? The blooms you get for your mom can start with her favorite ones. If you don't remember her favorite floral species, aim for flowers in her favorite color. Does she love purple? Get a bouquet with a generous amount of lavender mixed in.

Easter

Easter is also a popular holiday in the spring season, meaning flowers can be a great idea to gift to a family member. You often see beautiful trumpet-shaped lilies at the flower shop, in homes, and in churches during this time. Based on Christian beliefs, these blooms were present in the garden that Jesus prayed in before his crucifixion, according to the Farmer's Almanac.

Christmas

You know Christmas has arrived when you see those large red Poinsettia leaves around. They dominate holiday displays after Thanksgiving ends (and sometimes beforehand!). The good thing about this plant is you can keep it for another year to rebloom if you care for it properly.

Flowers are a beautiful gift year-round, but some holidays have a special association with them. So if you want to give the right holiday gift, it's best to prepare now. Contact Rose & Blossom today and a professional florist would be glad to assist you!
