Choosing the Perfect Valentine’s Day Sentiment

Gifts for Your Father or Grandfather

When we were children, our fathers and grandfathers made for some of our favorite valentines, showering us with hugs, love, candy, and flowers. Now, as adults, it’s our turn to return the favor! Sending the men that we love flowers is a thoughtful gesture that they not only appreciate but enjoy. Everyone, even guys, can’t resist the beauty of Mother Nature. So, this Valentine’s Day, gift your dad and grandad bold blooms like hydrangeas, sunflowers, chrysanthemums, or gerbera daisies, and watch their hearts melt.

Gifts for Your Mother or Grandmother

One of the best blooms to gift your mom, grandma, or even mother-in-law is the carnation since it symbolizes a mother’s love. However, on Valentine’s Day, you may be searching for some thoughtful roses for your mom that aren’t as romantic as the passionate red ones they may be receiving from their partner. White roses, pink roses, and lavender roses represent things like elegance, refinement, admiration, gentleness, perfection, and thoughtfulness, all ideal for the lovely maternal women in your life.

Gifts for Your Brother

With arguing, competition, and teasing out of love also comes bear hugs, nuggets of wisdom, and a partner in crime. Brotherly love is precious and irreplaceable. This Valentine’s Day, don’t miss your opportunity to send a reminder of your love and support to your brother through a fresh, uplifting, and energizing botanical. Tropical plants like birds of paradise or orchids are exceptional for a burst of positivity and enthusiasm, while succulents are easy to care for and make any space look put together – even your brother’s bedroom.

Gifts for Your Sister

Sisters are always there to guide us, like brothers. They have your best interest at heart and are always looking out for you, whether you realize it or not. Celebrating your sisterly bond can start with her favorite flowers or color. While alstroemeria, daisies, anemones, and roses are great places to start, personalize your message through yellow or peach-colored petals that represent friendship, gratitude, lightheartedness, sweetness, and positivity.

Gifts for Your Partner

The heroes of Valentine’s Day, bold, passionate red roses are the ultimate expression of romance and love. Whether sent to your significant other at work, handed to them as they arrive for dinner, or accompanied by a thoughtful gift to match, floral bouquets for the love of your life will always “wow” them. If you are looking to switch up a classic arrangement or incorporate more romantic stems, consider lilies or white roses. These blooms are just as romantic, symbolizing passion, loyalty, elegance, grace, longing, and love.

Fresh stems are a fantastic way to spread love to your entire family. From their favorite colors to the perfect symbolism, you are sure to find the best collection of Valentine’s Day blooms here at Mission Viejo Florist.
