Valentine's
Day Flowers

YaoFlowers knows just what women want. How? Because we asked them! And now we're sharing our findings with you!

Given the hundreds of choices, how are you supposed to know which flowers are best for your Valentine? You must consider her tastes, as well as the message your gift can convey (e.g., blenders and vacuums may not convey the best Valentine's Day message).

Gifts are personal gestures that can express a range of sentiments, and there is no gift more popular on Valentine's Day than flowers. But, what kind of flowers will she like? What do they mean? We’ve learned the answers to these questions and more, and are here to help you!

In a poll that asked women, "What Valentine's Day Flowers do you really want?" the clear favorite was still the holiday's classic flower—the rose—BUT, women often wanted roses in colors other than the traditional red. Instead, they cooed over the "fragrant peach," "favorite yellow," and "elegant lavender" varieties.

Roses come in a range of colors, so if you decide to go the traditional route, the rule of thumb is to consider your Valentine's tastes. You can also refer to our Valentine's Rose Guide for more information on the meanings of these popular flowers.

Lilies came in a close second. "Lilies in Valentine's colors are a great choice because they smell wonderful and they're so very beautiful when they bloom day after day. They're a slow blooming flower, so that means they last that much longer," said one respondent. And another chimed in saying, "I love stargazers! The sweet aroma is wonderful!!!"

There are a number of varieties of lilies to choose from. Stargazers are fragrantly sweet, while Asiatic lilies have a touch of elegance. You can find more information on the meanings of different lily types in our Flower Meanings Guide.

The remaining respondents chose flower varieties ranging from daises to Chinese mums to orchids. Their reasons for choosing these types of flowers varied, but were perfectly summed up by one respondent when she said, "…it shows that he knows what my favorite flower is AND he took that into consideration."

So just where does your Valentine fit into this mix? Take our Valentine's Flower Quiz, and choose the right bouquet for your leading lady.
