15 Things To Keep In Mind While Gifting Flowers
1)Is someone ill or has got off a physically or mentally trying moment
? Gift them Lilies (They denote peace)2)Looking for flower delivery in india? Think roses and lilies (They are the best suited flowers according to Indian sensibilities)
3)The first thing recipients do when they receive a bouquet is hurriedly look for the card and the message which accompanies it. Make sure that the card colour is a complimenting colour with that of flowers.
4)Make the fonts clean, clear and crisp. A shabbily wriiten card is a huge turn off
5)If you are coupling your bouquet with a cake, make sure that the underlying layers of emotions are the same. For example when you are ordering roses, couple it with a chocolate cake (Both denote passion). Likewise, if you are ordering lilies, couple them with a vanilla based cake (Both denote serenity and purity)
6)When sending lilies, make sure you ask your florist to wrap a leaf sheath around the bouquet. It lends an added touch of grace to the arrangement.

7)While chocolates make for a great combo with flowers, make sure you ditch the norm and send a different variant than the regular ones. Try a rich milk bar the next time.
8)Do not add perfumes in the gift. They go way too far and seem overindulgent
9)When trimming stems, make sure that you cut out at least 2 inches from the base. Most of the stems are 4 inches and that is way too long for an arrangement
10)When gifting flowers to your fiance, opt for orchids. They are harbingers of bounty and signify good times ahead.
11)When gifting to your relatives and family, think plants. Money plants are hugely used in homes and they last longer if taken, good care of. Also, they are favourites for the elderly.
12) Blue roses signify mystery. If you are mesmerized by someone you would like to know further, go for them
13)Writing messages for funeral flowers can be a daunting task. Use the following as a template for reference
Dear XYZ,
Assuring you of our presence, in all ways, with you in these trying moments.
Condolences,
14)This Valentines, instead of sending roses, send a bunch of carnations. Roses are too popular and sometimes dont let you stand apart.

15)When surprising your loved ones, send the exact opposite of what their likes are. For example, if they like roses, send them orchids. If they like a chocolate cake, send them a pineapple cake. This way, the surprise lingers on and the mystery deepens with each passing second, as they are not able to think of the person who sent it. We have seen this work like a charm.
