Flowers for Women Who Love Traditional Blooms


If you are selecting a bouquet for a woman who adores traditional flowers consider the occasion and buy accordingly:


1. flowers for romance
When gifting flowers to your partner on an anniversary, or just because you want them to know just how much you are, roses are a perfect choice. Red roses signify passionate love, whereas pink roses symbolise a softer, sweeter love. If you are on a restricted budget, carnations are ideal as they are still romantic, but not as expensive as roses. To really show how thoughtful you can be, consider buying the same flowers that you had at your wedding as your partner will appreciate the consideration that has gone into this romantic floral gift.


2. flowers for friendship
If you are looking for a bouquet for a female friend, yellow roses symbolise friendship and so are a cheerful, thoughtful option.


3. flowers for the mother figure in your life
Tulips are the popular flower to give on Mother’s Day as they symbolise comfort and happiness. Pink tulips mean affection and caring, whereas yellow tulips say, “you bring sunshine to my life”.
