Brighten up a loved one’s day with a beautiful floral arrangement under $150. We have a few suggestions to make your online shopping a lot more convenient.

Flowers have always been a part of social customs and gift giving. Europeans kept the tradition strong historically, and even in modern day social situations, as admirers present bouquets of flowers to the Queen and the Royal Family during royal visits.

Brides carry flowers to signify life and fertility on their wedding day, and flowers are laid on the graves of the dead to commemorate their life and spirit. In modern ideals, flowers are associated with peace and love, and the giving of flowers has extended beyond the traditional exchange between a man and a woman it has become quite normal that a woman can give a bouquet to a man if she so chooses.

How to pick beautiful flowers online

There are a few things to consider while buying flowers online. The following points are important to keep in mind while making the purchase:

Check first with the floral company, or do your own research, to find out which flowers will be in season. Flowers that are in season are generally less expensive than exotic flowers or blooms that are not in season. This is much like purchasing exotic fruits or produce that are out of season.

Research what the flower and the desired colour of the flower mean. Hydrangeas, for example, signify friendship and devotion and often come in a deep blue colour, which commonly symbolises friendship, trust, and peace.

Ask the person, or their family and friends, what their favourite flower is. Many people have a preference for a specific kind of flower so there is always a chance that the type of bloom that you choose may not be a favourite of the recipient.

Buying flowers online also gives you the opportunity to set a specific day for the bouquet to be delivered. If the flowers are to be delivered for the recipient’s birthday in a few weeks, you can set the delivery date to that particular day. This way, you will not have to worry about having time to drive to the floral shop on the recipient’s special day.

Check the florist’s recommendations. The shop’s website will often indicate certain bouquets, arrangements, or flowers for specific occasions. Some florists will allow you to create custom arrangements online by picking a certain design and specific flower types.

Make sure that the recipient is not allergic to any of the flowers! Sometimes, some people have sensitivities to pollen. If you don’t want to give your gift idea away, ask the recipient’s family or friends about any possible allergies.

Compare retail and shipping prices. Check a few different florists’ websites and check prices for the same flowers or similar arrangements. Compare shipping costs from different companies, too. Some companies include complimentary vases or floral blocks to extend the life of the bouquet or arrangement. Check delivery policies from these companies as well and ask how you can confirm that your purchase was safely delivered to the recipient.

The history of flowers

The historic connotations of giving flowers can be traced back to ancient times. Roman goddesses often wore flowers in their hair. The coming of Spring flowers was often associated with Venus, the goddess of fertility. During the Middle Ages and the Victorian era, when expressing sentiments in words was considered socially unacceptable, bouquets of flowers were exchanged to express these sentiments.

The presentation of such bouquets, like those of red roses, mattered greatly. Giving an upside down bouquet signified anger, whereas presenting them right-side up signified love. Meanwhile, different flowers in various colours held different meanings Yellow daisies were whimsical and inexpensive, and represented friendship. White flowers, often roses, were used during wedding ceremonies to symbolise purity and youth, and pink roses indicated femininity.

Consequently, books were written about the proper presentation and selection of flowers. Though these books would seem antiquated now, selecting the proper bouquet is crucial and largely dependent on the recipient. Fortunately, online florists make choosing the right type of flower to make your loved one smile convenient and easy, allowing you to select the perfect arrangement or bouquet, and then have it delivered right to the recipient’s door.
