Send a personal message to mom through flowers.

Mother’s Day was established to show our respect and appreciation for the wonderful woman all we call Mother. Everyone wants to send their mother a special gift on Mother’s Day, but coming up with unique gifts can be perplexing, overwhelming and time-consuming.

Thankfully, there are ways of taking the stress out of gift giving. Celebrations’ design team creates stunning floral arrangements that include gifts to make life easy for you and at the same time, give you the opportunity to do something really special for the most important woman in your life.

Flowers are the best way to let your mother know you love and respect her. For years, the carnation was the ultimate Mother’s Day flower, symbolising fascination, woman’s love and pride. Still, it can be fun to try something new and different. Unique and special may be words used to describe your mother, so why not find flowers that express that sentiment.

By choosing the right flowers, you are sending a personal message and that makes the occasion all the more special. To help you make your choice, here’s a list of some flowers and their meanings:

Magnolias represent dignity and nobility. No other flower can compare to the dignity and nobility displayed in these beautiful white blooms. They stand proud on the leaves of the majestic magnolia tree and will do the same when placed in a flower arrangement. Sending your mother a magnolia arrangement will make her feel that you think she has the nobility of a queen.

Orchids are a symbol of delicate beauty. The orchid has an undeniable mystique; looks delicate and fragile, but is really a hardy plant that is easy to maintain. Your mother may seem delicate, yet somehow she was always able to chase away the boogieman, scrape you up off the floor when you fell and she stood up for you against all odds. An orchid in an exotic pot will let your mother know that you recognise her inner strength. Other orchid gifts could be: an orchid wrist corsage, orchid stems in a crystal vase or a botanical necklace of orchid blooms.

Tulips epitomise caring (pink) and forgiveness (white). After all, what other flower would emerge during the cold just to keep the end of winter from being so bleak? Sending your mother a pot of pink tulips that she can later plant will let her know she is a caring mother and you a caring child. White tulips arranged in a ginger jar vase say you appreciate her forgiving nature. For a truly unique gift, present your mother with pink and white striped tulips.

Roses are the symbol of purity (white), thankfulness (pink) and remembrance (any tea rose). The elegant rose is always a great gift, but make it a unique Mother’s Day gift by arranging it in a non-traditional way. Express purity with a tussie mussie or nose gay of white roses. Show mom how thankful you are with a sweetheart bouquet of pink roses. Sometimes simple is unique. A single tea rose in her favorite color will let her know you love and remember her.

Finding a unique Mother’s Day gift does not have to be difficult. Simply think of your mother, and talk to one of our talented floral designers about what she means to you. Together, you can find a flower or many flowers that will suit her Your mother will love any gift showing respect and appreciation, but a unique flower arrangement as a Mother’s Day gift, like the ones discussed here, will bring joy to her heart. As for husbands, flowers are a great gift for your mom or wife, they are the gifts that say so much without saying a word! Here at Celebrations, we think it is wonderful to take one day of the year to give thanks and appreciation for one of the most difficult jobs there is, being a mother.
