Valentine's Day Flowers to Say 'I Miss You'

Missing Her This Valentine's Day? Say It With Flowers

Valentine's Day is a celebration of love, but what if you can't be with the one you love? Whether it's due to distance, circumstances, or anything in between, being apart on Valentine's Day can be tough. But don't let the distance diminish your feelings. You can still make her feel cherished and remembered with a thoughtful bouquet.

Choosing the right flowers can speak volumes when you can't be there in person. They're a tangible reminder of your affection and can bridge the gap when miles keep you apart. The key is selecting blooms that convey the sentiment of 'I miss you' in a way that's both heartfelt and appropriate for Valentine's Day.

Here are some top flower choices to express your longing this Valentine's Day:

Classic Red Roses: The Ultimate Symbol of Love

You can never go wrong with red roses. They're the quintessential symbol of love and passion. A bouquet of long-stemmed red roses makes a powerful statement about your deep affection. If you're missing her, a single, perfectly formed red rose can be just as impactful, symbolizing your unwavering focus on her, even from afar. Elevate the gesture by opting for premium varieties known for their velvety petals and captivating fragrance.

Elegant Lilies: Beauty and Grace

Lilies are another excellent choice for Valentine's Day. Their elegant appearance and sweet fragrance add a touch of sophistication to any arrangement. Stargazer lilies, with their bold pink hues and striking appearance, symbolize ambition and prosperity – a wish for a bright future together. White lilies, on the other hand, represent purity and devotion. Consider her style and personality when choosing the right lily variety.

Exotic Orchids: A Long-Lasting Reminder

For a gift that lasts beyond Valentine's Day, consider orchids. These exotic blooms symbolize love, beauty, and thoughtfulness. A potted orchid is a lasting reminder of your affection, and its delicate beauty will brighten her space for weeks to come. Choose a Phalaenopsis orchid for its graceful, cascading blooms, or a Dendrobium orchid for its unique and eye-catching appearance. You can explore options here.

Cheerful Tulips: Hope and New Beginnings

If you want to convey a sense of hope and optimism, tulips are an excellent choice. These cheerful blooms symbolize perfect love and are associated with new beginnings. Choose a mix of colors for a vibrant and playful arrangement, or opt for her favorite color for a more personalized touch. Red tulips, in particular, are a declaration of love, while yellow tulips represent cheerful thoughts.

Sweet Forget-Me-Nots: A Promise to Remember

True to their name, forget-me-nots are the perfect way to say, 'I'm thinking of you' this Valentine's Day. These delicate, sky-blue flowers symbolize remembrance and enduring love. While they may not be as showy as roses or lilies, their understated beauty and sentimental meaning make them a truly special gift. Consider adding a small bunch of forget-me-nots to a larger arrangement for a touch of heartfelt charm.

Beyond the Bouquet: Extra Touches That Matter

While the flowers themselves are important, it's the extra touches that truly elevate your Valentine's Day gift. Here are a few ideas to make your gesture even more special:

  • Personalized Card: A handwritten card expressing your feelings is a must. Tell her how much you miss her and why you can't wait to be together again.
  • Favorite Treats: Add a box of her favorite chocolates, a selection of gourmet snacks, or a bottle of wine to complement the flowers.
  • Cozy Comforts: Include a soft blanket, a scented candle, or a plush toy for her to snuggle up with while she's missing you.
  • Virtual Date Night: Schedule a virtual date night and enjoy a meal together online. You can even watch a movie or play a game to make it feel like you're actually together.

Timing is Everything: When to Order

Valentine's Day is one of the busiest times of the year for florists, so it's essential to plan ahead. To ensure your flowers arrive on time, place your order as early as possible. Most florists offer same-day delivery, but ordering in advance guarantees availability and gives you more options to choose from. Check out more information on when to order your blooms.

Caring for Your Valentine's Day Flowers

To help your flowers last as long as possible, include a care card with instructions on how to keep them fresh. Remind her to trim the stems, change the water regularly, and keep them away from direct sunlight and heat. You can also find helpful tips on how to care for your blooms.

Make This Valentine's Day Unforgettable

Even though you can't be together in person, you can still make this Valentine's Day special. By choosing the right flowers and adding a personal touch, you can show her how much you care and bridge the gap between you. And when you're ready to create that perfect arrangement, shop our rose collection at Bloom Boom for quality flowers that speak from the heart. Let your love bloom, no matter the distance.

Pro Tip

To make your flowers last longer, add a packet of flower food to the water. Most florists include this with their arrangements, but if you don't have any, you can make your own by mixing a teaspoon of sugar and a few drops of bleach into the water. The sugar provides nourishment, while the bleach helps to prevent bacterial growth.
