Flowers and What They Mean: Which Flowers to Send for Every Occasion

Flowers say what words sometimes cannot. A single colour can mean love, thanks or comfort, so it helps to know what each flower says before you send it. Here is a simple guide to the flowers we deliver in Lebanon, and the occasions they suit best.

Red roses: love and romance

Red roses are the classic flower of love. Send them for anniversaries, engagements, Valentine's Day, or an apology that needs to be taken seriously. For a bigger gesture, see our love flowers and anniversary flowers.

Pink roses: affection and appreciation

Pink is softer and warmer. It suits birthdays, friendships, mothers and sisters, and a gentle thank-you. Browse all rose bouquets.

White flowers and lilies: peace and sympathy

White flowers are calm and respectful, which is why they are the usual choice for condolences. They also suit new beginnings. See our sympathy flowers and our guide to sympathy flowers in Lebanon.

Sunflowers and bright mixed bouquets: joy and thanks

Bright colours are made for cheering someone up or saying thank you. Mixed bouquets in seasonal blooms work for birthdays, congratulations and surprises. Explore thank you flowers and mixed flower bouquets.

Orchids: elegance that lasts

Potted orchids stay beautiful for weeks, which makes them a refined gift for new homes, thank-yous, get-well wishes and new babies. Browse our orchids.

Flower boxes: a modern way to give

Flowers arranged in a gift box arrive beautifully presented and ready to enjoy. They suit anniversaries, birthdays and thank-yous. See flower boxes.

How to choose when you are not sure

Think about the person first, then the moment. If they love colour, go bright. If they prefer calm and classic, choose roses or orchids. If the moment is serious, keep to white and green. When in doubt, message us on WhatsApp and tell us who it is for.
