So, you are invited for a birthday party and as usual you are struggling to find out that perfect birthday gift. On top of that you do not have enough time to go and choose that unique birthday gift.


If this is the case, you should give them as flower as birth day gift. Giving flowers has been a tradition that dates back centuries. Flowers are still the safest and perhaps most graceful gifts – you cannot go wrong.

Top 5 reasons for birthday flower gifts

1. Flowers are beautiful and can be chosen to fit the recipient. Even guys will enjoy receiving a more masculine potted flowering plant.

2. You can always buy flowers, even last minute.

3. There are online florists who will allow you to order online for delivery in another state or even country.

4. Flowers go with everything. You can pair a bouquet of flowers with a box of chocolates for a romantic gift, tickets to a soccer game for a sports fanatic, or with a stuffed animal as a cute gift for a child.

5. Most people don’t think to give flowers as a birthday gift, so chances are, your present will be quite unique.

How to choose flower?

For January, give white flowers. Carnations arranged in casual baskets are perfect. February’s color is violet, so send a bouquet of violets and add a balloon! The color of March yellow is yellow, so send the celebrant some fresh jonquils.

April celebrants should receive pink flowers. Sweet peas would be great. If your recipient is a May celebrant, bring him or her some lilies of the valley. June celebrants mostly like the color red, so this is the time to give roses. Larkspurs, on the other hand, are perfect for July celebrants.

Yellow is back in for August. Gladiolus arranged beautifully will show your August celebrant that you care. Purple asters are perfect for September celebrants. October’s color is feisty orange, so give the celebrant some calendulas. November celebrants, on the other hand, will surely appreciate a basket of chrysanthemums, and December celebrants will love a narcissus.

Things to Consider When Choosing Flowers as birthday gift

Preferred flowers: Do you know what the favorite flower of the recipient is? Rather than buying generic roses, you’ll find your gift is far more appreciated when you bring a bunch of flowers . . . the birthday girl’s favorites!

Do you know you can pass secret messages also?

In Victorian times, flowers were used to send messages. Each flower has a specific meaning and together, they can be used to form a secret, one-of-a-kind message. For example, baby’s breathe means “festivity”, gardenias mean “joy”, and orange blossoms stand for “fertility”. By combining select flowers and providing a key, you can give a very special birthday message.

You can make birthday gift truly unique by adding other accessories like forget-me-nots in a teacup, gourmet coffee gift basket, hand painted vase with their favorite flowers inside
