Top 7 Romantic Valentines Day Flowers
By Amy Nutt
Valentine’s Day is one of the most romantic days of the year
and the most popular gift to give, among new couples and married
ones, is flowers. Flowers are possibly the most romantic token
of your love and affection! Choosing the perfect flowers for
your loved one can be difficult . . . do you go with traditional
roses or something different? Here are the top seven most
romantic flowers in our book.
1. Roses. Clichéd perhaps, but still very romantic. The color
of rose you select means different things. Red is for passion,
perfect for the hot young couple who is just getting into their
affair, pink is romance, ideal for chaste pairs and married
couples, or anyone who is just in love. Stay away from yellow,
these ones mean friendship and aren’t very romantic at all!
2. Tulips. Tulips traditionally mean “perfect love” and are
really a great alternative to the rose. Tulips come in a variety
of hues, so it is pretty easy to find one that comes in your
lover’s favorite color, even if that’s black. This simple
flower really symbolizes the perfection of your love, with its
sculpted petals and beautiful cup. A simple bouquet of three or
five tulips is ideal to give to your darling this Valentine’s
Day.
3. Lilies. These elegant flowers are stunning when presented
alone or in a cluster and do best when not combined with any
filler. They are come in several colors, including red, white
and yellow and symbolize beauty . . . just right for letting
your girl know how lovely you consider her to be. While
expensive, lilies really do embody beauty and create a very
romantic environment.
4. Lilacs. These amazing flowers are most revered for their
delightful aroma and tiny delicate flowers that grow in
cone-like clusters. They can be picked directly from the bush
and given to your sweetheart as a beautiful Valentine’s Day
gift. Traditionally available in hues ranging from soft lavender
to dark purple, lilacs have now been bred to come in white and
pink as well, all beautiful romantic shades.
5. Carnations. Another fairly traditional flower is the
carnation. They are frilly and feminine and come in hues like
pink, white, and red, as well as more stunning shades of purple,
green and even blue. Some carnations even have dual colors, with
the outer edge of the petals in red or pink while the main
flower is white. They can be quite stunning, but tend to be the
cheaper of the flowers available. These flowers last longer than
most, up to 3 weeks after they’ve been cut.
6. Orchids. The meanings of this delicate flower are many,
including seduction, love, beauty and refinement. Though often
quite pricey, a single orchid can be a lovely way to tell
someone that you care about them and is considered to be quite
romantic. Plus, it’s about as far from the traditional rose as
you can get!
7. Wildflowers. This is more a variety of flower than a specific
kind. There are literally thousands of different wildflowers
growing in fields and yards across the country. What makes this
so romantic is that you have to actually go out and take the
time to select and pick the flowers for your sweetheart. Giving
wildflowers for Valentine’s Day is sure to impress your girl
as it is a very romantic gesture.
In general Valentines Day Flowers are a romantic gift, but these
flowers hold more romantic connotations than others. Whether you
choose to go with the traditional rose or something a little
more unique, you can guarantee that your gesture won’t be
misinterpreted if you give flowers.
