Flowers are used in a wide range of settings or to portray different emotions and having the right ones at the right time really can just set things off perfectly. While some people just grab anything that is there others put a lot more thought into what different varieties or colours represent so there really is a lot more to it than at first meets the eye.

You need to be aware of what different flowers can do as sometimes just a few are all that is needed to really set the scene. For example certain varieties are much stronger smelling than others so you do not want them to completely dominate the room so you only need a few instead of a large bunch in order to get it across that they are there.

Others such as some types of lilies are best when there are just a few due to their more dramatic nature and they can often be found in long vases leaving a much more dramatic impression. Clearly the opposite then has to be true with smaller stems looking much better in tight bunches making them appear much busier.

We are all aware of the impact of red roses at Valentines day where we use them to express our love for someone but there is a whole list of flowers that mean different things. Quite often the colour white signifies a much more pure tone while pink in certain varieties can indicate a mothers love.

It is certainly worth your while either looking into the meanings of colours or varieties of flowers for certain occasions or you can even ask a florist direct as they have a much greater understanding of it all due to their training. It does then show the person you have put a lot more thought into the entire process rather than just picked up what was there.

Having a lot of greenery in your bouquet may indicate it is much cheaper as it does mean that there are less flowers in it and the greenery is much cheaper for the florist therefore lowering the price. But it can also really help set it off if you have some in it and not just a burst of all the colour as it gives it a much more natural feel to it which in some cases is the look you should be going for.

It is a case though that you shall get what you pay for. If you go for cheap then you shall get that whilst if you splash out you are going to get a much more luxurious bouquet that does set the tone of being much more classy so do put a lot of thought into the budget side of things.

When you are buying for certain occasions try and find out what others have done for the same occasion before settling on your flowers. You can add your own twist to it to make it yours but getting inspiration from others who have been in the same situation can always help you to really decide on what to buy.
