Alternative Flower Gift Ideas for Valentine’s Day

January 20, 2015

What is the first thing that you think of when giving flowers on Valentines Day?  Roses.  It’s the classic flower that everyone gives…and boring.  Stand out from the rest by giving her something a little different and unique.  Here are a few alternative flower gift ideas that are all under $60 (before shipping).

Orchids

Teleflora - Zen Artistry

With purple dendrobium orchids, green carnations, dark pink Sweet William, an emerald palm leaf and other tropical greens, this arrangement is unique.  This is perfect for anyone who wants to add some Zen to any room, and the orchids will last a very long time.

Having had orchids in the past, I suggest picking up some orchid food to go along with it.  They are very picking, and need to be in a well lit area.
Teleflora – Zen Artistry – $47.66, 14.95 shipping – Available at FlowerShopping.com

 

Cactus

Teleflora - Merry Christmas Cactus

This particular cactus, the Christmas Cactus, is normally giving during the holiday season.  However, it’s beautiful blooms make it perfect for Valentine’s Day.

Plus, it will last as long as it’s cared for, it will bloom for many years.

Sunflowers

Teleflora - A Pot of Sunflowers

This arrangement has sunflowers, chrysanthemums, and yellow roses.  It’s bright, cheery, and instantly makes you think of summertime…which during this time of year isn’t a bad thing, especially if you live in an area where you are getting snow.
Teleflora – A Pot of Sunflowers – $54.86, 14.95 shipping – Available at FlowerShopping.com

 

Sunflower Bouquet

Wholesale - Sunflower Bouquet

This sunflower arrangement is just as bright as the previous, but it has a simple elegance that anyone will love.
