If You Have Questions Concerning What Type of Flowers to Buy, Your Gold Coast Florist Can Help

Flower shopping online is both easy and convenient. Flowers make lovely gifts for just about everyone. Whether it is a special occasion like a graduation or the birth of a baby, or a holiday like Easter or Christmas, flowers bring smiles to the faces of those who receive them. Before ordering your flowers, here are a few items that may be of interest to you. 

If you want to give somebody flowers just because you think they are a fabulous person, jasmine flowers are the perfect choice. Orchids symbolize beauty and refinement, they are ideal as a gift to those celebrating a birthday or as a thank you present. Lilies represent simplicity and are associated with spiritual and symbolic occasions. The flower that best represents romance is the rose; white roses are for love, red roses are for passion, yellow roses are for friendship and when honoring a person or showing gratitude, give them a pink rose.

In the Classical Antiquity period, Roman brides and grooms would wear flowers as a representation of new life and fertility. Favorite wedding flowers include the traditionally white arum lily, roses in shades of pink and white, lily of the valley with its fabulous scent, bright colored freesias and trailing plants like ivy and jasmine.

As a funeral flower, there is nothing as beautiful as a rose. Chrysanthemums are traditional funeral flowers for many countries and signify truth and honesty. When a red base is required, red carnations are used as they have long stems and are long lasting flowers.
