Flowers are great gifts for practically any occasion, but there are some basic rules of flower etiquette. With the popularity of ordering flower delivery online, some buyers may not get the sound advice they'd get from a local florist. This guide presents the real meaning behind different flower types, and when they are best used.
Red Roses: Red roses are always a great gift for a lover for practically any occasion or for no occasion at all. Indeed the power of "I love you" behind long stemmed red roses given to a significant other is a winner for any occasion, and is especially powerful when given for no occasion at all. The red rose signifies "romantic love", so it may be a bit much in some cases. However, most will find that red roses are a consistent winner.
Yellow Roses: Yellow roses are the flower of friendship. They are a perfect gift for a co-worker or sibling. However, they might be too timid to express romantic interest. They do not express the romanticism of the red rose.
Pink Roses: Pink roses are the flowers of secret love. They are a perfect medium between the friendship of a yellow rose, and the romantic love of the red rose. They express a secret love, and should not be mistaken purely as a friendship gift like the yellow rose.
White Roses: White roses are the flowers of innocent love. They are ideal for family members and family occasions, even funerals.
Carnations: Carnations are the flower of fascination. They are an ideal flower to give to a romantic interest that has not yet blossomed into a relationship.
Orchids: Orchids are the flowers of love and beauty. They can be given for practically any occasion to practically anybody. Orchids are universally appealing flowers that do not carry significant meaning for most occasions.
Daisy: Daisies are the flowers of loyal love. They are a perfect flower to give to a mother on Mother's Day, or for any occasion. Picking Daisies for Mom practically goes along with Apple Pie.
Lily: The Lily is the flower of purity and sweetness. It is an ideal flower to give to a niece or daughter.
Chrysanthemum: The Chrysanthemum is a flower of friendship, so it will go well on any occasion, but may not be ideal for expressing romantic interest.
Flowers are great gifts, and it is difficult to do too much wrong when getting flowers for anybody. But if you follow the etiquette noted above, you will be able to express yourself better with flowers.
