A Christmas bouquet as a gift for a festive meal
People like to give flowers at Christmas when they are invited to a festive meal with family or friends. A bouquet of flowers is the classic gift to thank someone for an invitation. It is not only an excellent decoration for the recipient. The scent of Christmas is enhanced by the right choice of flowers. This allows the recipient to experience the festive season with all their senses.
Send flowers at Christmas to say, ‘I'm thinking of you’
It is not always possible to spend Christmas with all your loved ones. In this case, you can choose to send flowers at Christmas to surprise a relative who lives far away. A lonely neighbour, good friend or loved one in a nursing home will be particularly delighted to receive flowers at Christmas.
Typical Christmas flowers besides poinsettias
The air is filled with the scent of pine cones, incense, Christmas cookies... and soon Christmas flowers too! But first, you are spoilt for choice between potted plants and Christmas bouquets. In addition to the recipient's favourite flowers, the following winter flowers and plants are also suitable:
- Poinsettia
The classic Christmas flower is the red poinsettia. During the Christmas season, it is said to symbolise the Star of Bethlehem, which showed the way to the manger with the Christ Child. There are many stories surrounding the Christmas or Advent star, which originates from South America. According to one legend, its striking red leaves were created because of the unrequited love of an Aztec goddess, whose heart bled and stained the leaves red.
- Roses
As an ‘all-rounder’, roses are a popular choice for Christmas bouquets. Red is the typical Christmas colour, which is why a bouquet of red roses is a popular choice for Christmas. Roses also look great in combination with other flowers, such as lilies or gerberas.
- Gerbera & germini
A gerbera in a bouquet makes everything much more beautiful. In red, it stands for love, in orange or yellow for cheerfulness. In general, it expresses great admiration for the recipient. In a Christmas bouquet, it provides a colourful eye-catcher depending on its colour. If you want to send colourful flowers for Christmas, choose a bouquet with gerberas.
- Amaryllis
The amaryllis symbolises admiration, friendship and respect. Its red colour makes it one of the most popular Christmas flowers. It is a typical pot plant that can easily survive cold days. Its big moment comes in winter, when the amaryllis bursts out of its bulb to brighten up the Christmas season.
