A bespoke, premium, handpicked bouquet for the incredible woman who raised you sounds perfect to wow her, isn’t it? The classic Mother’s Day flowers are glorious to give her a surprise and make her smile ear to ear. Here are our top picks for classic Mother’s Day flowers:
Mother’s Day customs vary from country to country, for most, carnations are the quintessential choice as classic Mother’s Day flowers, but in Australia, chrysanthemums steal the show. Tulips, roses, and lilies are also quite popular around the globe when it comes to picking flowers for Mum.
Go classic with Carnations: Carnations work as the symbol of eternal love that a mother has for her child, each color of carnations represents something unique – pink is for motherhood and gratitude, light red represents admiration, white is for purity and remembrance, and dark red carnations express love and affection.
Cherish her with Chrysanthemums: Springing into life, vibrant with their hues, cheerful chrysanthemums hold warmth, love, and gratitude for mums. Each color symbolizes something special, pink is for honest love, red is for motherly love and gratitude, white represents honesty and loyalty, and violet graciously conveys “get well soon”
Evergreen Tulips: Tulips with their enchanting colors and vibrancy stand as a contemporary choice for Mother’s Day flowers; their colors also represent unique qualities, for example, pink tulips are for happiness which is ideal for celebrating motherhood, yellow tulips denote hope and cheerfulness, purple ones are for admiration, and the red tulips represent deep love.
Go Regal with Lilies: Lilies for Mom is such a classic, nobody can deny their royal charm. White lilies represent modesty and purity, pink is for prosperity, yellow lilies represent gratitude, red is for love and passion, orange is for pride and confidence.
Love her in Roses: Traditionally associated with passionate love, roses are also quite popular as Mother’s Day flowers. Just like the other blooms, different colors symbolize different things – whilst red roses are for passionate love, pink is more on the softer side of it, yellow stands for friendship, celebrations, and cheerfulness, orange stands for pride, and lavender represents enchantment, majesty, gracefulness.
Mother’s Day isn’t just for mums, it’s also the day we celebrate the just-like-moms; a handcrafted bouquet of premium flowers can speak louder than words, however, we do recommend sending a personalized note alongside for the added warmth and affection.
