1. Think About Her Favorite Flowers and Colors

If you know what kind of flowers or colors your mom loves — go with that! It shows you’ve paid attention to the little things, and she’ll feel truly seen.

Some popular picks include:

• Peonies – represent love and tenderness

• Soft-colored Roses – elegance and appreciation

• Lilies – purity and respect

• Hydrangeas – gratitude and grace

2. Ask Your Florist About Flower Meanings

Flowers speak their own language. For example:

• Pink carnations – the traditional Mother’s Day flower (they symbolize a mother’s love)

• Lavender – calm, care, and healing

• Tulips – warmth and affection

A florist can help you create a bouquet that tells your mom a story — without saying a word.

3. Consider the Size and Style of the Arrangement

If your mom loves simplicity, go for a chic, minimalist bouquet. If she loves a “wow” moment — choose a lush arrangement or a floral box.

Here’s a breakdown of our bouquet sizes to fit every vibe and budget:

• S ($125) – elegant and meaningful

• M ($165) – the perfect balance

• L ($200) – bold and beautiful

• XL ($260) – a luxurious statement

4. Choose a Color Palette That Feels Like Her

When ordering, you can request a custom color scheme:

• Pastels – softness and love

• Brights – energy and joy

• Neutrals – freshness and calm

• Classic white & pink – timeless motherly beauty

Let the colors tell her story.

5. Don’t Forget a Personal Note

A handwritten card adds a personal touch that means the world. Just a few heartfelt words can make her day extra special.

Remember: Even if she says she doesn’t want anything, flowers always speak to the heart.

Let her feel celebrated, cherished, and loved — because she truly deserves.
