Occasion Flowers

Complimenting Every Occasion with Flowers

Sending flowers is a centuries-old tradition. The Victorians carefully crafted their bouquets, assigning a meaning to every flower to deliver the intended message. Today, giving flowers is still a trendy choice, even with so many other gifting options available. With so many beautiful choices, we can complement our message of love and care on any occasion with flowers.

Giving the Gift of Flowers

There is something memorable about receiving hand-delivered flowers from someone special. Whether it is for a birthday, Mother’s day, to say thank you or to sympathise, there are endless good reasons to give flowers as a gift. Ordering a bouquet at Stem by Stem couldn’t be easier if you are short of time and can’t personally visit and deliver your flower selection. Flowers will probably also last a bit longer than a box of chocolates, so the joy in the flower gift will endure for days or even longer than a week.

• Flowers are a way of sending an emotional message. A bouquet might say I love you today, or well done, or good job at another time. Different flowers have different meanings, so work with your florist to create the perfect arrangement to carry your message. Irises, for example, express faith and hope, while Carnations express love and appreciation.
• Flowers are known to boost your mood. They are gifted for happy occasions, but they can also express sympathy in mourning or illness recovery. There’s no equal to flowers when you want to elevate someone’s mood or help improve their emotions.
• We are not limited to any particular flower or arrangement when gifting flowers. We can customise your flower bouquet to suit you. There are many ways to create a flower arrangement with different flower varieties. With our bright blooms and indigenous flower options, you are bound to find a bouquet with the perfect flowers for your loved one.

There is as much fun and joy in creating the perfect flower gift as the heart-warming whoop of joy when the bouquet arrives.

Any Occasion is a Flower Occasion

Whatever the occasion or the emotion, flowers can help you express it most vividly. Perhaps you want to send birthday flowers or newborn flowers, or a beautiful vase of flowers for Mother’s Day or even Valentine’s Day. You can even send sympathy flowers or thank you flowers; we have the ultimate bouquet for every occasion. A flower gift symbolises refinement, thoughtfulness and mature charm and is indicative of bonds of affection.  Here are a few pearls of wisdom about the messages and meanings of different flowers.

• Carnations are a symbol of pride and beauty. A pink carnation symbolises the love of a woman or a mother, while a red carnation represents romantic love, pride and admiration. When you send a white carnation, it symbolises innocence and pure love, and a purple flower is for capriciousness.
• A daisy conveys loyal love, as it symbolises innocence and purity.
• An orchid is the symbol of exotic beauty. It symbolises pride and glorious femininity, mature affection, refinement and thoughtfulness.

We are sure you can imagine that roses are a busy bunch! There are so many beautiful coloured roses, each with its own emotion and meaning attached. We all know that red roses are an undisputed expression of love. They convey deep emotions of love, desire, and longing and respect. However, have you ever heard of a  rose bouquet delivering a message from an admirer who is not yet sure of his intentions in a relationship? A marvellously quirky arrangement of different coloured roses says, ‘I’m not sure what my feelings for you are yet, but I like you enough to send you roses.’

The gifting of flowers is a thoughtful way to express sentiment on any occasion. There are no rules when it comes to giving a bouquet. For some people, a specific flower or its colour has a personal meaning or memory attached. In contrast, for others, any flower arrangement is welcome, regardless of any attached meaning.
