Fail proof birthday flowers

Birthdays are happy occasions always worth celebrating. On your birthday, there's nothing better than feeling like the centre of attention with everyone spoiling you all day. So, if this is what you enjoy on your special day, it should go without saying that your friends and loved ones will appreciate the same kind of treatment. Cake, gifts, and fun times together are just what you need to create the most amazing memories. While most aspects of a birthday can be quite simple to plan and organise, choosing the perfect gift can be tricky. So, the next time you struggle to find the right birthday present, consider the following fail proof flower options.

A bouquet of red roses are fantastic if you plan on sending them to your partner or spouse. You should, however, not send this kind of romantic bouquet to a co-worker, friend, or anyone you are not romantically attracted to. If you're not sure about sending just roses, you can have your florist include other flowers to create a more friendly and less romantic theme.

Another option is to choose pink flowers instead of red ones. A pink bouquet is perfectly feminine but not as romantic as a red flower arrangement. A wide variety of flowers can be combined including roses, carnations, and stargazer lilies, to name just a few. Feel free to add some green and white to help the pink tones stand out even more.

If you want to send a bouquet with a more calming feel, you should opt for shades of violet and blue. Many different flowers are available in different shades of purple. These include orchids, agapanthus, asters, freesia, and irises to name a few. These can be sent on their own, combined and you can add some bright yellow blooms to help the purple shades really stand out.

Lilies are another option. They are available in a wide variety of colours, shapes and sizes. They can be displayed all on their own or along with other types of flowers if preferred. Ask your florist to show you some ideas before choosing the combination you like the most. Don't be afraid of combining different colours too. It will make the arrangement that much more festive.

While freesias are great for including in mixed bouquets, they also look wonderful all on their own. They are also known for their amazing scent which means that they will always make every lucky recipient smile.
