Funeral Flowers

PICK OF THE BUNCH

June 21, 2010, 5:32 am

Whether it's a child's offering of a few mismatched and squashed leaves or a stunning professionally created masterpiece, fresh flowers are the ultimate gift. 
Flowers can really take the place of words, from apologies to love, birthday blessings to good luck, gratitude to sympathy, there's no better way.   And while seasonal availability and personal choice will always influence a decision, certain types of flowers are more suitable for various occasions. 
It's a good idea to consult your local florist who will have professional advice and guidance on what flowers are best suited to the ocasion.There's no right way and there's no wrong way of doing things.  It’s the thought that really counts. 
On Valentine's Day, the world's best-known symbol of love, the red rose, is the most popular bloom.And if you want to express your love in a different way, there's nothing unromantic about stunning lilies, tulips or orchids.Increasingly, people are adding extras such as chocolates to their floral gifts, and as we know, those sweet treats are hard to resist ?
Pink flowers are the most popular for Mothers’ Day, with pink carnations always in demand.  Other feminine flowers, such as lilies, daffodils, roses, tulips, hyacinths and orchids are also lovely.When it comes to Christmas, the green and red of the pointsettia has made it a very popular plant.For festive fun, the green spiky leaves of holly with red berries or red and white flowers make a great combination.
When it comes to funeral flowers, lilies and chrysanthemums are the traditional choices in many countries around the world.To convey a message of sympathy, white flowers are usually the best choice as they bring peace.  Irises, orchids and roses are also suitable funeral flowers, whilst yellow ones are generally considered inappropriate.
And if we're talking about babies, gender-appropriate arrangements such as pink for girls and blue or yellow for boys are always popular.Flowers that have tiny blossoms are also very popular when it comes to celebrating a tiny, new life.Gypsophila is a very popular flower type in floral tributes for a new arrival as it has hundreds of tiny delicate, white flowers.For baby showers, daisies are becoming more and more popular in floral arrangements as they symbolise the new arrival's purity and innocence.
Gift hampers for baby showers are also growing in popularity, with Perth florist, Ennis Flowers, reporting a huge increase in demand for hampers containing flowers as well as appropriate gifts like teddy bears and toys.There are lots of innovative ideas out there such as baby socks arranged in silicon cupcake moulds to look like a cute cupcake.
For people recovering from an illness or an accident, bright and cheery arrangements can really lift the spirits.Another suitable variety to signify healing and recovery are orchids.
And if you simply can't decide what to do for a birthday, why not send flowers that represent the month of the birthday.You can always check online for lists of birthday flowers, for example April is the month for sweetpeas.    
The beauty and scent of fresh flowers is matchless.Everyone loves getting flowers - whatever the occasion - and the florist in Perth will always make your floral gift one to remember.
