Say it with Anthuriums

A heart-shaped flower for Valentine’s Day

The Anthurium is a wonderfully versatile flower, available in many different sizes and styles. The most classic Anthurium is the heart-shaped bloom – you’ll probably recognise it. If you look closely, you’ll see that the flower really does resemble a heart. A bouquet containing Anthuriums therefore carries extra love, making this flower the perfect Valentine’s Day gift.

Longlasting Anthuriums

Anthuriums also symbolise lasting love, as they stay beautiful for an impressively long time. If you change the water weekly and trim about a centimetre off the stems each time, Anthuriums can easily last 2-3 weeks. This is quite different from most other Valentine’s flowers, such as roses. When you gift roses on Valentine’s Day, you know they won’t bloom for more than a week. That’s not the case with Anthuriums! An Anthurium outlasts other flowers and often remains stunning in a vase for weeks on end.

Don’t forget Galentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day isn’t just about romantic relationships – it’s also about friendship. Love goes far beyond your partner; friendships deserve attention too. There’s even an official name for it: Galentine’s Day. A blend of “gal” and “Valentine” – and the perfect excuse to spoil your friends!

Looking for a fun Galentine’s Day activity? Organise an afternoon of flower arranging with your bestie(s). Pick up some lovely vases from a charity shop, buy a selection of beautiful Anthuriums in your favourite colours, and add a few extra flowers and branches for variety. Put out some tasty snacks and drinks, and you’re ready to get creative! Not only will you enjoy a wonderfully cosy time together, but you’ll also go home with beautiful floral arrangements as a keepsake of the day. A Galentine’s Day to remember!
