Valentine's Day Lilies: A Sophisticated Choice for a Heartfelt Gift

Why Choose Lilies for Valentine's Day?

Valentine's Day is a time to express your love and appreciation, and while roses are a classic choice, sometimes you want something a little different, a little more… *you*. If you're like many of us, you want a gift that truly reflects the depth and uniqueness of your relationship. That's where lilies come in. They offer an alternative that is both elegant and meaningful, perfect for showing someone you care in a way that feels personal and sincere.

Lilies symbolize love, devotion, and purity, making them an ideal choice for Valentine's Day. Their striking beauty and captivating fragrance add a touch of sophistication to any bouquet, and there are so many varieties to choose from!

Asiatic Lilies: A Burst of Color

For a vibrant and cheerful expression of love, consider Asiatic lilies. These lilies come in a wide array of colors, from sunny yellows and oranges to fiery reds and pinks. They're also a more budget-conscious option, generally falling in the $65 - $95 range for a beautiful bouquet. If you’re looking for classic roses, we offer many affordable, beautiful options for that too.

The bright hues of Asiatic lilies make them perfect for conveying joy and excitement, especially if your loved one has a vibrant personality. Plus, they don't have a strong fragrance, making them a great option for those sensitive to strong scents.

Stargazer Lilies: Dramatic and Romantic

If you want to make a statement, Stargazer lilies are the way to go. Their large, showy blooms and sweet fragrance exude romance and passion. These lilies are typically pink with crimson spots and feature upward-facing flowers that seem to reach for the stars (hence the name!). Expect to pay a bit more for Stargazers, with bouquets typically ranging from $80-$110.

Stargazers symbolize ambition and dreams, making them a thoughtful choice for someone who inspires you. Keep in mind their strong fragrance, which some may find overpowering.

Oriental Lilies: Elegant and Fragrant

Oriental lilies are known for their exquisite beauty and intoxicating fragrance. These lilies boast large, elegant blooms in shades of white, pink, and red, often with ruffled edges. They represent love, purity, and devotion, making them a classic choice for Valentine's Day, and are priced similarly to Stargazers.

Choose Oriental lilies if you want to convey a sense of timeless romance and sophistication. Be mindful of their strong fragrance, as it may not be suitable for everyone.

Calla Lilies: Sleek and Modern

For a modern and sophisticated touch, consider calla lilies. These lilies feature sleek, trumpet-shaped blooms in a variety of colors, from classic white to deep burgundy. Calla lilies symbolize beauty and refinement and can be a slightly more expensive choice, generally falling in the $90-$120 range.

Calla lilies are perfect for conveying a sense of understated elegance and are a great option for those who appreciate minimalist design. They're also a good choice if you want a flower that lasts a bit longer than other varieties.

Tips for Gifting Lilies on Valentine's Day

To make your lily bouquet even more special, consider these tips:

  • Personalize the arrangement: Add other flowers that your loved one enjoys, such as roses, tulips, or daisies.
  • Include a heartfelt message: Express your love and appreciation in your own words.
  • Present the flowers in a beautiful vase: Choose a vase that complements the lilies and adds to the overall presentation.
  • Consider a surprise delivery: Have the flowers delivered to your loved one's home or office for a special Valentine's Day surprise.

Lily Care Tips to Extend the Romance

To help your lilies last as long as possible, follow these simple care tips:

  • Trim the stems: Upon receiving the flowers, trim the stems at a 45-degree angle.
  • Remove any foliage below the waterline: This will prevent bacterial growth and prolong the life of the flowers.
  • Use a clean vase: Wash the vase thoroughly with soap and water before adding the flowers.
  • Change the water regularly: Change the water every day or two, and add flower food to help nourish the blooms.
  • Keep the flowers out of direct sunlight and heat: These conditions can cause the flowers to wilt more quickly.

By following these tips, you can help your lilies last for up to two weeks, allowing your loved one to enjoy their beauty for days to come.

When to Order Your Valentine's Day Lilies

Valentine's Day is a busy time for florists, so it's best to order your lilies in advance. Aim to place your order at least a week before Valentine's Day to ensure you get the best selection and delivery options. Some florists, like Bloom Boom, even offer same-day delivery in certain locations, but it's always best to plan ahead.

Pro Tip

Florist's trick: To prevent pollen from staining clothing or surfaces, gently pluck the pollen-covered anthers (the little stalks) from the center of the lily once the flower has fully opened. This will also extend the life of the bloom!
