Quick answer

Soft, classic arrangements — roses, lilies or a seasonal mixed bunch — are the most popular Mother's Day choices. Book a few days ahead where possible, since it is one of our busiest periods of the year.

Mother's Day brings a similar surge in demand to Valentine's Day, so a little planning goes a long way toward getting exactly what you want delivered on time.

Popular choices

Soft, classic arrangements tend to suit Mother's Day best — think roses, lilies, ranunculus or a seasonal mixed bunch in gentle colours. A potted plant is also a popular choice for mothers who enjoy gardening or want something longer-lasting.

Personalising the gift

Pairing flowers with a small, specific gift — a favourite treat, a thoughtful note referencing something personal — tends to land better than flowers alone, without needing a large budget.

Booking ahead

As with Valentine's Day, we recommend booking a few days ahead of Mother's Day itself, since demand is high and delivery slots can fill up on the day.
