Common fresh flower questions and answers

Florists are often faced with a number of questions. Particularly from first time customers. Here are some of the most commonly asked flower questions and answers to help you choose the best floral gifts.

Can women send flowers to men?

Yes! There is no rule against women buying flowers for men. The only thing you need to keep in mind is that men tend to prefer arrangements with stronger, bolder colours and lines. In other words, you should opt for bright colours rather than pastels and perhaps something with a minimalistic appearance.

What flowers should I send as a romantic gift?

Red roses are the number one choice when it comes to romantic flowers. This is why they are so popular for occasions like Valentine’s Day. That said, red roses are not your only option. You can also send any other red flower like red tulips or red carnations. You can even send a mixed red bouquet if you prefer. Pink flowers send a romantic message although they are a bit more on the sweet side rather than deep passion like red blooms. Never underestimate the romantic power of a bunch of their favourite blooms. The thoughtful aspect of the gift is what makes it the most romantic of all.

How to choose the right flowers for every occasion?

Different occasions call for different kinds of flowers. Fortunately, when shopping at your online florist, you will notice that it’s all super easy thanks to the various categories. Simply click on the Birthday, Thank You, Sympathy, or any other occasion you need. In this section, you will find all the best floral gifts for the particular occasion.

Should I order flowers in advance?

If you know that a certain occasion is coming up, it’s best to place your flower order in advance and schedule the delivery date. This is to ensure that you get what you want at the price you want. This is especially important when it comes to busy days like Valentine’s Day. Of course, sometimes you need to place an order in a hurry, like when somebody passes away, and this obviously means that you cannot order in advance. Florists allow for this by offering next day and same day flower delivery.
