Forget searching for the perfect words—say it with flowers! Whether it’s a Mother’s or Father’s Day cheers to your parents, a Grandparent’s Day celebration, or a fun delivery for your siblings and chosen family (because they always deserve some love), sending the perfect stems translates your feelings loud and clear. (Don’t worry, we didn’t forget about the furry family members!) At Julia’s Florist, the premier flower shop in Wilmington, our blooming guide is bursting with tips on selecting colorful, fresh stems that celebrate every member of your fantastic family.

Pink Petals for Moms & Grandmoms

Think of pink flowers as the cozy blanket you never want to leave—warm, comforting, and full of love. From peonies that symbolize good fortune and prosperity to roses that represent admiration, appreciation, and joy and even carnations that signify a mother’s love, pink blooms are your go-to for saying “Thank for everything, Mom!” or “Love you lots, Grandma!” It’s a no-brainer for Mother’s Day, Grandparents’ Day, or a special surprise for any ordinary day “just because.”

Purple Blooms for Dads & Granddads

Roll out the purple carpet this Father’s Day with flowers that are as regal as your dad or grandad. Whether it’s the sophisticated purple orchids, the charming lilacs, or the noble irises, these flowers add a touch of royal beauty to his space and symbolize respect and admiration. Give a nod to his kingly status in the family with a bouquet fit for a monarch!

Green & Blue Flowers for Brothers & Honorary Bros

For the brothers and honorary bros who’ve always had your back, pick blooms that are as cool and dependable as they are. Blue hydrangeas bring the calm, but it’s the green chrysanthemums, with their vibes of resilience, optimism, and friendship, that really show your bros how much you appreciate them. Throw in edgy blue thistles to keep things unique—like your bond.

Peach Stems for Sisters & Honorary Sis

If peach flowers were a text message, they’d be all heart emojis and exclamation points! They’re just the thing for your sister or that friend who’s basically family – warm, joyful, nurturing, and trendy (hello, 2024 Pantone Color of the Year)! Surprise your sis with a bunch of ranunculus, alstroemeria, or tulips; she’ll feel the love pouring out from each peachy petal.

Orange & White Flowers for Your Furry Fam

Cheer on your furry family members with orange and white blooms, the perfect symbols of excitement, innocence, joy, and purity—everything your adorable pet is! When crafting this vibrant bouquet, prioritize pet safety by choosing non-toxic flowers. Bright orange gerbera daisies are a great choice and add a pop of color, and when paired with white snapdragons, they create a look that’s as joyful as your furry friend’s personality.

At Julia’s Florist, flowers are more than just a splash of color—they’re a full-on celebration in every bouquet! Pick the perfect arrangement that pops and perfectly captures the personal vibes you want to send.
