Are flowers a good Christmas gift?

There are many reasons why people love to give flowers for Christmas. Flowers help to express joy, appreciation, thoughtfulness and love. Plus, they are also great for people who are particularly hard to shop for.

Our 8 favourite Christmas flowers

Roses

Red roses are perfect for every occasion - especially Christmas! They match beautifully with the bright red and green colours of the holiday season, and these stunning flowers work well to brighten up any space during Christmas time. To spice up your bouquet of roses, simply add some pinecones, green berries and rosemary!

Holly

Recognised as the universal symbol for the Christmas season, holly features sharp dark green leaves with brightly coloured red berries. They instantly make any bright flower arrangement look more festive. Holly can also be used as a base for your Christmas wreath and to decorate your Christmas pudding.

Orchids

These beautifully unique flowers make for the perfect Christmas gift. They come in a variety of different colours including white, purple and shades of pink. These flowers will certainly add a pop of colour to anyone's home. We recommend placing them somewhere with plenty of light so they can last all season long!

Anthurium

These stunning flowers provide a great aesthetic to any space for the Christmas season. These unique flowers feature shiny, heart-shaped leaves that are bright in colour. We recommend choosing red anthuriums to deliver the Christmas spirit, and make sure to leave these in a warm and moist location. You can also ask the team at BloomBar to add these to any neutral flower arrangement for a pop of colour! If you’re looking for a custom bouquet, BloomBar will be happy to take your order in store or over the phone.

Hydrangea

Hydrangeas are often popular flowers during the spring season, however their bright colours and full blooms are perfect for Christmas time. Symbolising beauty, gratitude and grace, these are bound to brighten up your friends and family members' mood this festive season. They are available in a range of vibrant colours, however we recommend opting for red hydrangeas to complement the colours of Christmas.

Natives

Let your friends and family enjoy the holiday cheer with a wild and wonderful native flower arrangement. Many native flowers are brightly coloured featuring many red and green tones, perfect for the Christmas season.

Carnation

Similar to a rose, carnations are a popular choice for gifts as they feature double layered loose petals that are available in a variety of vibrant colours. For Christmas time, we recommend choosing red, white or multi-coloured carnations and pairing them with other vibrant blooms in a bright flower arrangement. Carnations symbolise deep love, affection, purity and luck.

Viburnum Berry

Viburnum berries make the perfect foliage to add to any festive bouquet. They are diverse berries that come in a range of colours, most commonly red, purple and green. They can also be used as decoration on Christmas wreaths and trees.
