Best Flowers To Give Your Mum On Mother's Day

Flowers are one of the most popular Mother's Day gifts around the Globe. And since you may not know which flowers are your mum's favourite, Hooray Heroes compiled a list to help you match your Mother's Day bouquet with your mum's character.

MDAY GIFT IDEAS

Carnation

While red carnations are in some countries usually associated with International Women's Day, pink carnations symbolize gratitude and are thus the perfect Mother's Day flower for all mums who love tradition. White carnations are a symbol of purity and unconditional love and are also a good choice for Mother's Day.

TIP: Use both pink and white carnations for a gentle and feminine combination your mum will love.

Hydrangea

Just like a white carnation, the blue hydrangea also symbolizes gratitude, the prevailing emotion we feel for our mums.

With their elegantly shaped petals and round flowers, they also represent grace and beauty. Opt for 3, 6, or 9 flowers on long stems if your mum is the most elegant person you know.

Peony

Peonies are getting more and more popular all over the World, especially with brides.

Traditionally they are considered symbols of love and romance and are believed to be omens of a good marriage. In Japan, they stand for bravery, honour, and respect, which makes them the ideal Mother's Day flower for all hip and trendy mums.

Tulip

No flower says spring as the tulip does.

And since we celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday in May, the tulip is your go-to flower for a colorful Mother's Day bouquet. Tulip is a favourite of all cheerful and optimistic mums.

Chamomile

Modest, gentle, nature-loving mums will love their chamomile Mother's Day bouquet.

Not all florist shops will have it, but chamomile is a lovely flower to give on Mother's Day since it symbolizes peace and says: "May all your wishes come true" like no other flower. They work best alone or mixed with wildflowers.

Anthurium

This exotic-looking flower symbolizes hospitality and is a popular gift for hostesses.

The heart-shaped part of the flower is not a flower, but a leaf that comes in a variety of colors. Anthurium is a good Mother's Day choice for your classy, minimalism-loving mum.

Lisianthus

Lisianthus symbolizes purity, spirituality, and a life-long bond and makes a fantastic Mother's Day flower.

Usually used as a supporting flower in different kinds of bouquets, lisianthus is just as beautiful alone. Is your mum a fun-loving and outgoing person? Get your mum a lisianthus Mother's Day bouquet.

Sunflowers

Remember the San Francisco song? Sunflowers are the top pick for all free-spirited, bohemian types of mums.

1 or a whole bouquet, of sunflowers, will bring sunshine into your mum's home and remind her of the warmth you brought into her life.

Roses

Roses, especially red, are considered romantic flowers, but they can also make a great Mother's Day bouquet. Opt for light pink or white ones.

They are most suitable for dreamers, idealists, and romantics. Add a few stems of Baby's Breath and you'll get a lovely Mother's Day bouquet for a young mum. 

Iris

Blue Iris has always been associated with royalty and nobility.

The deep blue color is also linked to wisdom, valor, and fairness, making the iris the right Mother's Day flower for all mature and experienced mums.
