Send flowers to loved ones you might not be able to see this Christmas

2020 has been a difficult year for everybody, and it looks like Christmas is going to be a very different experience for most of us this year. But just because you can't see your family in person, that doesn't mean that you can't still make this holiday season as special as possible. Flowers are always a welcome gift for many people, but this year, in particular, your loved ones are sure to appreciate a gift that will brighten up their homes and their lives.

You will find a range of Christmas bouquets and arrangements in our store, but before you order, here are a few things to consider.

Choosing the right flowers

Choosing the right flowers to celebrate Christmas can be tricky. When most people think of Christmas, they think of Christmas trees, holly and mistletoe. However, there are some fantastic festive flowers out there if you are willing to look.

For example, poinsettias are an ever-popular choice thanks to their vibrant cherry red and deep emerald green colouring. The bright leaves resemble flower petals, but poinsettias are actually plants, not flowers. There is a persistent myth in some gardening circles that poinsettias are poisonous, but this isn't true. However, they are mildly toxic to some animals, so be careful if the recipient has pets.

If you aren't familiar with flowers and you don't have much experience with buying them for yourself or other people, you will find plenty of options in our store. You don't need to know a great deal about flowers to be able to pick out an attractive arrangement from our catalogue. We have an array of bougets, baskets, wreaths and more. If you want to really push the boat out, combine one of our Christmas floral arrangements with chocolates, champagne or one of the other special gift options we have available.

Choose your colours carefully

Red is a very effective colour with which to accent floral arrangements. Something as simple as a few miniature roses or parrot tulips can make an enormous difference to floral displays, especially when they are set against bright or neutral colours. Red is also an excellent colour to use in conjunction with porcelain vases; they complement white china brilliantly.

Of course, red is also a classic Christmas colour. If you're looking for flowers that will evoke the festive spirit, roses are always a popular choice.

Another popular choice for Christmas is amaryllis. These flowering plants offer a unique, dramatic red coupled with elegant green. Amaryllis look incredible atop any fireplace.

If you want to make a lasting impression on your recipient, our opulent orchid vase combines pink cymbidium orchids with a beautiful red glass vase and chrysanthemums to create a festive arrangement for any home.

Think about the vase

Our Christmas flowers and arrangements are all paired with the perfect display vessel. When you're browsing our selection for something that will work with your loved ones' decor, remember to consider the vase as well as the flowers themselves.

If your loved one is already a flower fanatic, they may well have a collection of jugs and vases on hand that they can use. But no matter what their preferences are, we're confident we have something in our store that will truly wow them.

Why you should choose Memento Flowers

Regardless of the types of flower you are looking to order, finding a reliable supplier is essential. Not only do you want to be certain that you will get what you pay for, but receiving your flowers promptly is also important. Any delays in getting your flowers, bulbs, or seeds delivered can throw your schedule off and cause issues with your timing.

Memento Flowers provides an exceptionally reliable service, including same-day flower delivery in London. There are plenty of companies offering flower delivery in London, but only a small portion of them can deliver to you the same day that you order. We pride ourselves on our commitment to delivering a first-rate service throughout the year. But Christmas is special, and if there's one time of year when you want to be absolutely certain that your flower delivery will arrive on time, this is it.

If you aren't able to see your family in person this Christmas, you can still brighten up their holidays with the right flowers. You won't just brighten up their home and their mood; you'll give them something beautiful to show off in the background of their Zoom calls.

We have a wide selection of Christmas flowers available in our store. 2020 has been an unusual year in many ways; most of us will be glad to see the back of it. But that doesn't mean you can't make your loved ones' Christmas as special as possible. Check out our store today to see what we have to offer.
