Valentine's Day is an excellent opportunity to remind your loved one of your affection. The giving of flowers is a tradition that perfectly expresses your feelings. It can be difficult to know exactly what type of flowers to buy, however. The staff at Northgate Greenhouses in Cincinnati, OH, grows beautiful blooms perfect for any time of year, and they share their top options for your valentine.

Flowers to Give for Valentine's Day

1. Roses

Roses speak of romance and undying love. They are perfect for your significant other when wishing to go for a classic and timeless statement. Available in a number of colors, including red, white, pink, and yellow, they offer beautiful variety. In fact, these flowers are so well-loved that over 250 million are produced for Valentine's Day.

2. Lillies

For a less common option, consider going for lilies. Symbolic of both humility and devotion, they are the perfect gift for someone you want to spend your life with. They, too, come in a number of romantic colors. While red is most translated into passion, pink can symbolize prosperity and yellow means thankfulness. All of these choices will appropriately express your feelings for your significant other.

3. Tulips

Tulips have long been used as a symbol of worthiness. Thus, when you give this flower, you are declaring your special someone is worthy of adoration. Tulips also live longer than many flowers, which can symbolize your lifelong love for your valentine. Choose between red, purple, yellow, pink, and orange petals, or combine multiple colors for a stunning bouquet.
