Tired of always sending Roses to your Sweetie for Valentines Day? Here are some options for consideration:
1. Flowers don't have to be Red. While Red says I Love You, Blue, Green and lavender flowers are soothing and relaxing to the senses.
2. Bouquets don't have to be HUGE. Sometimes, less is more. Choose a pretty bunch of tulips or something fragarant like freesia, or a few stems of lush dendrobium orchids to embrace your sweetheart and remind her how unique she is.
3. Remind her of a special past date by incorporating a few blossoms into a wine bottle, or a seashell---something you both shared in the past. She'll love your sentimentality.
4. Other popular flowers for Valentine's Day include: Tulips, Gerbera Daisies (fun, festive and funky), Lilies (a very classic choice), Iris, Callas (Modern and trendy) and Bells of Ireland (a truly green alternative to red roses).
5, If you are on a tight budget, look for shorter stemmed roses; choose only 6 roses instead of the usual dozen; Maybe select just 1 perfect rose or flower. Go for a mixed colorful bouquet;
6. Popular color combinations this year include:
Red with orange; Shades of pink and purple together; Hot, Hot pinks with oranges and an accent of lime green; red and hot pink intertwined; classy all white; purple and reds together or mango.
