Everything You Need to Know About Choosing Get Well Soon Flowers

Do you know the best way to cheer up a sick friend or loved one? Show them you care by surprising them with some Get Well Soon flowers! Flowers can surely lift their spirits in a time when they are feeling low. However, with so many options available, getting the right flowers that enable you to convey the right messages can be difficult. Not to mention, there are many other factors to consider when choosing one.  

That is why we have compiled a handy list of things you need to know before you pick out a bouquet for your recipient. Read on to find out.

What to Consider When Choosing Get Well Soon Flowers

Colour

Make sure to choose bouquets with a burst of bright colours - such as yellow, red or orange - because these colours can bring about an instant mood lift. Believe it or not – the rich pops of colour can bring out an entirely different mood and offer a breakthrough for your dear friend who is overwhelmed with negative emotions.

Thankfully, Mother Nature has provided no shortage of brightly coloured blooms – so you will have no trouble finding one at all! From sunflower to tulips and more, finding a flower that ticks the box is as easy as pie.

Scent

When choosing Get Well Soon flowers, it's best to go for ones with lighter scents. Something too overpowering or fragrant might not be apt – especially if your friend is susceptible to allergies. Luckily, there are a number of flowers that are specifically hypoallergenic – these include roses, hydrangeas, tulips and more! Alternatively, you could also look into getting preserved flowers – which neither give off too strong scents nor do they require any sort of care at all!

Size

While we may want to shower our recovering loved ones with affection and cheer, buying too large a bouquet might pose some problems. There might be space constraints either in their home or wherever they are recuperating – so having a huge arrangement will naturally get into the way of much-needed items. And contrary to popular belief, you don’t actually need a big bouquet to make a big statement. Buying a medium-sized one can, too, convey your well wishes flawlessly.

Maintenance

Flowers are uplifting, and will no doubt bring a little brightness into your dear recipient’s life. However, it is important to remember that these flowers are meant to cheer your loved ones up while they recover – be sure to choose flowers that require little to no maintenance so they can focus on their journey to recovery.

Just Flowers or Something More?

Sure, a bouquet of flowers is great – but if you want to provide your friend with a holistic wellness experience, why not consider a hamper or a fruit basket? These curated gifts incorporate everything from stunning floral arrangements to nourishing foods – what better way to support your friend through their recovery?

What Get Well Soon Flowers Should You Get?
