THE MEANING OF FLOWERS

When you order flowers there are some important things to think about: Who is the recipient and what is your relationship to that person? Will you be sending flowers to someone's home or to their workplace? What flower captures the occasion and your sentiment perfectly?

For example if your intent is to send something to a friend who has been ill or just needs cheering up, an arrangement of all yellow flowers such as yellow roses, snapdragons, or sunflowers is a great choice for making people smile. If your gift should send a romantic message, red roses or a bouquet of calla lilies are elegant choices that will sweep her off her feet.
