Romantic flowers are a beautiful way of sending a message to show you care about someone and are thinking about them. When words are not enough to say, ‘I love you’ or, ‘I’m sorry’, a floral bouquet – especially a bouquet of red roses - can bring surprise and happiness to your sweetheart. The flower you choose could be one that has special significance in your romance – it could be her favourite, the first flower you picked for her or one which was in her wedding bouquet. It will be your unique way of saying that she is in your thoughts and that your memory of that special occasion is alive in your heart.
Whether you chose a single flower such as a rose or a larger bouquet of spray orchids, your online florist will guide you but you may want a more personal touch by selecting a flower which has a symbolic meaning.
The language of flowers can express your love in a sensitive and thoughtful way without the need for words. A red rose is a specially romantic flower. When it comes to choosing roses, there is more than the colour to think of – there is the number. A single stem rose carries the universal message, ‘I love you’ while a dozen red roses carry the message, ‘Thinking of you twelve months of the year’ and have become a symbol of perfect and true love largely due to the significance of the number twelve itself.
Tulips also carry messages of love and can be used to express your feelings by the use of colour –
- Red Tulip – You are a perfect lover
- Variegated Tulip – You have beautiful eyes
- Yellow Tulip – I’m hopelessly in love
A deep red carnation will convey the message, ‘My heart aches for you’ or, ‘I admire you’.
It is said that the path of true love does not run smoothly and sometimes it is important to say, ‘Sorry’ or to try to ask your loved one to forgive you. The gift of a flower can act as a means of gaining forgiveness. In the ancient
language of flowers, a purple hyacinth means, ‘I’m sorry, please forgive me’.
Yours might be a secret love that is known only in your own heart. If so, there is no need to wait for Valentine’s Day to send a valentine’s flower. A gardenia can relay the message, ‘My love for you is secret’ and can create an air of mystery and expectation before you declare your romantic interest. If you win your love, a gardenia would then become your special romantic flower for special occasions or for use in her wedding bouquet when you are both planning wedding flowers.
A visit to your online florist is easy – no traffic jams, no queues – as close as the keyboard of your pc or laptop. From the variety of floral bouquets available, you are sure to find a beautiful bouquet of romantic flowers to send.
