Step 1
Before buying a bouquet for your girlfriend, find out what kind of flowers she loves. And if you want to surprise, then choose burgundy roses - this is a classic. Just remember to trim the thorns about 2/3 of the stem length. Do not buy flowers outside in winter, otherwise they will not live long and will quickly crumble in a warm room. If you are sending a bouquet with a messenger, attach a business card or postcard with a touching or message. Try to surprise not with the size of the bouquet, but with its originality and beauty. In the spring and summer, pamper your beloved with the first tulips and simple wildflowers.
Step 2
Women are much less likely to give flowers to men. This is usually done on a birthday, on the day of the Soviet Army and when war veterans are congratulated. Stricter bouquets will be appropriate here, and present carnations, lilacs and tulips to veterans.
Step 3
Would you like to present flowers to your favorite artist? Buy a large or unusual bouquet made up of large flowers. After all, the function of the bouquet in this case is to distinguish the artist from the mass of other people.
Step 4
If you are giving flowers to a foreign guest, then first take an interest in the national traditions of his country. In Sweden, they do not like carnations, in Japan, hydrangeas are considered male flowers, and it is better for women to present a bouquet of azaleas, the British consider the combination of maroon and white flowers to be mourning, and the French are prejudiced towards chrysanthemums, especially a wedding bouquet. In Russia, bouquets of yellow flowers are not honored, there is a sign that such a gift symbolizes treason.
Step 5
For a hero of the day, purchase a large bouquet in a beautiful bright package or in a gift basket. For especially festive holidays, bouquets of chrysanthemums, roses, large lilies or gladioli are suitable.

It is better not to bring white flowers to the hospital ward, they will merge with the general background and make the patient feel melancholy. When visiting a patient, make sure that the smell of flowers is not too strong. Take care of the vase in which they will stand. Ask the salesperson in the flower shop to compose a small bouquet of bright flowers so that their cheerful shades cheer up the sick person and instill optimism in him.
