Our Favorite Summer Bouquets To Send Mom

Sending your mother, grandmother, or wife a bouquet of flowers for Mother’s Day is the perfect way to say “thank you” and “I love you.” Mother’s Day is all about giving, and each act of love is in appreciation of the mothers and maternal figures who have helped shape and guide us into the people we are today. 

I was fortunate enough to have a grandmother who loved tending to her own garden as a child. We would spend our Sundays at a local nursery. Taking our time to browse through the greenery and fresh flowers, eager to take a colorful plant home with us. Once home, my grandmother and I would spend the afternoon in the garden, preparing the soil, digging holes, and getting our hands dirty. We would laugh together and enjoy the unexplainable bond shared between a grandparent and grandchild. These are the memories that I hold dear to my heart. Looking back, it must be the reason why I love flowers and plants so much!

Father’s Day Plants & Flowers Dad Will Love

If I were tasked with mentioning all the reasons that make fathers so special and worth celebrating internationally, we would need thousands of scrolls, dozens of durable feathers, and gallons of ink to pen down all the things that pop up when I think of all that fathers represent, hence Father’s Day. Father’s Day rolls by yearly and celebrates fathers in all their glory! Making now the perfect time to learn about the perfect Father’s Day plants to surprise dad!

Fathers do much more than fixing broken cabinets and unclogging congested waste pipes that no one else would dare touch. Their value goes beyond anything you can measure. Good fathers are a rock who fill a variety of roles. Just like there’s no perfect way to be a father, there’s no perfect gift for a dad either. Over time, I’ve seen how a traditional African father’s role grew from traditional decision-maker and breadwinner, to equally involved in the running of the household. With that came a realization that fathers also appreciate ‘soft’ and overly sentimental gifts. Like flowers that were previously only appreciated by women. You can only guess how excited I was to find this little detail out.
