The Mother’s Day bouquet

A bouquet with meaning

For the special occasion of Mother’s Day, we want to help inspire your gift-giving. This year, we’ve chosen the Alstroemeria as our top recommendation. It is a flower that perfectly balances beauty, symbolic meaning, and a remarkably long vase life.

The Flower of "The Six Qualities"

The Alstroemeria (or Peruvian Lily) is a traditional symbol of devotion, appreciation and friendship. This makes the flower a thoughtful gift for your mother as it reminds us of the unconditional love she’s given her children.
What makes it truly unique are its six petals, each representing a different quality:

Understanding, Humour, Patience, Compassion, Dedication, Respect

Ultimately, a bouquet of Alstroemeria is a gift with a story.
It’s a practical choice for its endurance, but an intentional one for the six-fold tribute it pays to all the wonderful mothers.

Alstroemeria: A perfect choice for a mono-style bouquet

On its own: A mono-bouquet of Alstroemeria is clean and modern. Because each stem has multiple flowers, just a few stems can easily fill a vase.

Alstroemeria: The perfect choice for a mixed bouquet.

In a mix: Alstroemeria is also a perfect "blend-in" variety. It adds great volume and texture to mixed bouquets, beautifully complementing other flowers.

A Gift That Keeps on Giving

Beyond the message, Alstroemeria is a practical, high-quality choice for a busy household:

14-Day Beauty: While many flowers fade quickly, Alstroemeria stays vibrant for up to two weeks, serving as a long-lasting reminder of your gesture.
An Allergy-free Choice: If she suffers from allergies, look for the Florinca series. These are pollen-free spray Alstroemerias. Florinca Jade comes in natural green, whereas Florinca Joy Ride is characterised by soft pink petals, both excellent choices for fragrance-sensitive homes.

Vibrant Variety: From the multi-layered hot pink of Fashionista Sofiena to bold yellows, reds and purples, there is a shade to match her unique personality.

Simple Care Tips for our moms

To keep the blooms looking their best, share these three quick tips:

Trim the stems: Cut 2-3 cm at an angle with a sharp knife.
Clean water: Refresh the vase water if it begins to look cloudy.
Use flower food: This helps the buds retain their intense colour and keeps the leaves a healthy, strong green.
