What are the perfect flowers for April birthdays?
April is the month of two beautiful Spring flowers, the sweet pea and the daisy. Wonderfully paired together, bouquets of daisies and sweet peas are ideal for perfect flowers for April birthday gifts!
Daisies
In Latin, daisy literally means pretty and daisies are symbolic of many things. They can convey loyal love, innocence, purity, sympathy and cheerfulness.
There are five common types of daisies with petals ranging in colour from white to pink, around a bold yellow centre. They most commonly grow in yellow or white, but can be found in pinks, purples and reds.
Top Tip: Daisies should last approximately 5 to 7 days if properly cared for. Keep your flowers in a cool location, away from drafts and heat sources. To keep your daisies looking fresh, you should re-cut stems and add warm water and plant food to their vase every other day.
Sweet Peas
Sweet peas are known for their sweet fragrance. They have delicate thin petals, soft to the touch and come in shades of violet, fuchsia and pink. In the language of flowers, the sweet pea is symbolic of blissful pleasure, yet on the other hand they are also used to say good-bye.
Top Tip: Place your vase of flowers out of direct sunlight and away from drafts, and add water as necessary to keep the vase full. Occasional misting will keep your Sweet Pea flowers looking fresh.
A bouquet of daisies and sweet peas are the perfect flowers for April birthdays and are perfect for any occasion, both in April and throughout Spring!
