Sending flowers by post is a wonderful way to express feelings when a visit to friends or family is not possible. A wide variety of different bouquets and floral arrangements,Flowers by Post to Show You Care Articles all made with fresh flowers and foliages, in different colour combinations provide suitable flowers for people of all ages. 

Bright vibrant hand tied bunch of fragrant freesias, interspersed with subtle touches of foliage, are the ideal flowers to send for any occasion. These dainty flowers will fill a room with their delicate fragrance and look appealing when displayed in a simple vase and placed on a table or shelving. Due to their daintiness a hand tied bunch of multi-coloured freesias are the perfect flowers for small rooms in both modern and traditional style homes. Freesias, particularly white, are historically a symbol of friendship which make them the ideal choice for sending to say a heartfelt ‘thank you’ or simply to let a friend far away know that you are thinking of them. Freesias are renowned for their long lasting vase life, with buds busting open regularly to emit their sweet smelling scent into a room. They remain a firm favorite and one of the most sold cut flowers within the UK.

Bouquets of pastel shades of carnations, injected with touches of deep red blooms and dark foliage are extremely popular choices of bouquets and floral arrangements which have been appreciated for many years. Carnations are one of the world’s oldest cut flowers which is particularly appreciated by older generations. With its ruffled appearance and sweet scent the carnation became the official flower for Mothers Day in the early part of the twentieth century. Pink carnations are believed to symbolise gratitude, and a mother’s undying love, the paler shades of red admiration with darker reds symbolising deep affection and love, making them the perfect gift when sending flowers by post on Mothers Day.

Carnations are also the flower which is associated with the birth flower for January, therefore a bouquet of carnations sent as flowers by post in this month are a very apt birthday gift. Sending a large hand ties bouquet of carnations of all one shade of pink, yellow, cream or red will undoubtedly bring joy to the recipient as carnations are one of the easiest flowers to arrange in a vase of any shape or size. Their strong stems enable them to be randomly placed in a vase and still look elegant and effective, if the water is topped up regularly the display life of can be prolonged for a considerable amount of time. Contemporary floral displays include a single carnation bloom placed in three or five identical small vases and placed in a horizontal line on a shelve or mantle piece, this design concept is very easy to achieve by using blooms from the bouquet. Alternatively a modern display which cuts the stems shorter than usual and packs the blooms into a short square shaped vase looks trendy and chic when displayed off centre on a coffee or occasional table.
