Which flowers to give for each occasion

Roses, sunflowers, peonies… every flower says something. A quick guide to picking the right bouquet for the moment and the person.

Which flowers to give for each occasion

Giving flowers is always a safe bet, but choosing the right ones turns a lovely gesture into a message. Here's a simple guide to picking a bouquet by occasion.

Love and anniversaries

Red roses remain the classic of love, but a bouquet in blush tones or peonies conveys the same affection more delicately. For an anniversary, playing with the person's favourite colours often moves them more than following tradition.

Gratitude and friendship

Here joy and warmth lead the way: sunflowers, field flowers and wild arrangements. Bright bouquets, perfect for saying thank you or brightening someone's day for no particular reason.

Congratulations and celebrations

For a birthday or good news, go for colour and volume. Lively mixes, lots of variety and a festive touch. Browse our bouquets for inspiration.

Condolences

For delicate moments, choose white and green tones, sober and serene. The elegance lies in restraint.
