Say it with a gift

Once you’ve crafted the perfect Valentine’s Day message for your loved one, it’s time to choose a gift to go alongside it. There’s no better way to say I love you than with flowers. Choose their favourite blossoms or opt for something unusual and exotic. Flowers have their own individual meanings, so send a bouquet packed with sentiment and show how much you truly care. The red rose is the traditional way to say I love you, but there are many other flowers that symbolise love and affection.

  • The sunflower represents loyalty, adoration and longevity – ideal for letting a friend know how much you care
  • Daisies are often sent to express happiness at a new beginning and offer joy and good fortune, so they are perfect for that brand-new love
  • Hydrangeas symbolise familial love and make an ideal Valentine for a spouse or even as a loving tribute to a parent
  • The exotic orchid represents strength and beauty as well as love – a unique gift for that uniquely special someone in your life.
