Flower Choosing Guide - Choose Your Flower in 3 Steps
Choosing a gift is not always easy, even an idea that we have in mind must have been thought out beforehand. Otherwise, the choices we make may not make the other party happy and may cause misunderstandings. Choosing flowers also requires delicacy. Time, place, person, purpose, tastes, colors... Variables. The bottom line is that when you say you will buy/send a flower, your favorite color does not mean the other party will like it, or a flower that you are not very sincere about but send to show that you are thinking of them can have very different meanings and cause misunderstandings.
We thought about it too and wanted to make this job even easier. Afterwards, we are sure that both the person sending the flower and the person receiving the flower will be happy :)
Step 1: First of all, the most determining factor is who we will send the flower to and our relationship/closeness with this person.
Sending Flowers to a Lover: Our most beloved, our beloved... The first thing that comes to mind is red roses, if they love you, don't think twice and show your love with the most beautiful, red roses. However, it may not always be that easy, red rose or rose may not be everyone's favorite flower. But of course, she is your lover, you know her favorite flower, color and style, so it is not difficult :) Maybe a daisy bouquet, maybe colorful tulips, maybe orchids that represent nobility and elegance. The choice is yours.
The Most Beautiful, Most Special Flowers for Your Lover
- Sending Flowers to Mother: Our dear, our mother... Just thinking about them is enough. But fragrant flowers also make us happy. Daisy, hyacinth, daffodil, lily. The choice is yours.
Fragrant Flowers for Your Mother
- Sending Flowers to Dad: Fathers say, "My child, why did you need it?" but that moment when the initial surprise gives way to happiness... I think it's worth seeing fathers like that. Although cacti and succulents are the first things that come to mind, you should definitely consider white flowers as well. Lilies, the symbol of eternal love and devotion, or pure white roses will suit your father very well. If you want a more elegant, more serious flower, white orchids can also be your father's favorite flowers.
- Sending Flowers to a Friend: Think about your friend's favorite colors and if you know her favorite flowers... A bouquet with all of them together will make her very happy.
Step 2: Why are we sending flowers, what is our purpose?
We talked about people and the degree of closeness, but these flowers may not always be suitable, maybe we should choose a more showy, more meaningful flower, maybe a simpler one...
Step 3: Where are we sending the flowers? Home, workplace, hospital, etc.
We can make the right choice according to the purpose of sending the flower and the place where we will send it.
For example; we want to send a flower for a sick relative, if our purpose is to get well soon, we should not choose a flower that is allergic to or has a smell that will bother them. (Step 2: Purpose)
We need to consider situations such as whether we will send the flower to the hospital or to the home, whether the flower we will send is accepted by that unit or how long it will stay in the hospital, whether the flower will reach him/her. (Step 3: Where are we sending it)
Anniversary: ??Red, pink and white roses are the most popular. If the person you are sending is a man, you can prefer flower and chocolate designs, plants such as bonsai.
- Birthday: Her favorite flower will be the flower that makes her happiest. Once you learn this, you can choose similar flowers according to the season. You can also make your flower more special and meaningful with a note you will write.
If the person you are sending is a man, you can choose lucky bamboos and bonsai trees. Bonsai trees, which are described as a green staircase reaching to heaven as a religious ritual by Buddhists, symbolize the harmony between earth, heaven, man and nature. Growing bonsai is thought to be an empathy, adaptation and a different way of finding a place in the life cycle (such as birth and development). It will be a different and meaningful gift for a birthday.
- New Job/Promotion: When sending flowers to a family member, spouse/lover or friend who has started a new job or been promoted to a new position/task, it is important to remember that the flower selection, design and note you will write will attract the attention of their new colleagues and manager and will be under their watchful eye. In this regard, you can choose arrangements in vases that are not too large and can be easily placed on their desk. By choosing both flower and chocolate boxes, you can also ensure that they share this moment and create a more comfortable and intimate environment with their manager and colleagues.
- Thank You: Maybe there is someone you want to thank on behalf of the company you work for or maybe individually. Who do you want to thank, why and how? If they have helped you a lot in a very important matter/event and if they are a very important person to you, you can choose carefully selected flowers and plants that are suitable for your home/office and that you can easily care for. The note you add when sending is much more important. If they are going to be sent on behalf of the company, you can choose more serious designs, orchids and small plants.
- Visiting the Patient: You can choose more symbolic, less space-consuming designs for your get-well flowers to be sent to the hospital. For the home, you can also choose different potted plants that suit the atmosphere and decoration of the house. If you cannot be with your loved ones physically during this time, a heartfelt note will make them feel better.
- New Baby/Birth Congratulations: There can be no gift that will make you happier than the arrival of a newborn baby to a family. However, sharing that miraculous moment when all emotions are experienced most intensely with your fragrant flowers, chocolates, and gifts is a completely different feeling. You can choose baskets and boxes decorated with gifts and flowers that you will choose for the newborn baby. Delicately thought-out floral gift boxes with the baby's name and your congratulatory message will be an unforgettable gift.
