How to choose the best Mother’s Day flowers (and alternative ideas too!)

We all have someone we love who ‘mums’.

Whether it’s your mother, your partner, your gran or someone else in your life who’s stepped into the role, showing them how much we care and appreciate their efforts is important.

Flowers are an easy and thoughtful gift that can raise a smile for weeks at a time. Plus, there are plenty of suppliers to choose from whether you’re ordering weeks in advance or need next-day delivery.

While flowers can fit a variety of budgets, the most beautiful bouquets can also come with a hefty price tag, which is why we’re here to help you make your money go further and save on the best Mother’s Day flower arrangements.

The most popular flowers for Mother’s Day

Back in the day, flowers were said to hold all sorts of meanings which often still influence the most popular flower choices today.

Whether you’re declaring your love, admiration and respect, the most popular Mother’s Day flowers (according to Rose and Blossom) are:

• Roses – A timeless classic; pink, yellow, and white roses are a perfect way to say, ‘I love you’.

• Lilies – These fragrant florals last ages and are a wonderful symbol of motherhood.

• Peonies – The densely layered petals of this ‘queen of flowers’ are a stunning choice.

• Sunflowers – Raise a smile and spread some joy with these sunny, yellow blooms.
