How to choose the best blooming Mother’s Day flowers

30 April 2025
At Fleur by DK, we believe giving flowers is never just a formality - it’s a moment of connection. A way to say, “thank you” “I love you,” and “you matter” without uttering a single word. On Mother’s Day, this gesture carries even more weight. It’s a celebration of the nurturing, strength, and grace of the women who shape our lives. Whether you’ve been planning for weeks or are sending a bouquet of Mother’s Day flowers at the last minute, the secret to making them feel truly special lies in how they're chosen, styled, and delivered. It’s not just a bouquet—it’s a message from the heart In the flurry of a busy life, it can be tempting to grab flowers on the go. But there’s a vast difference between a last-minute bunch and a floral arrangement designed with meaning, intention, and expert care. Our creative team at Fleur by DK in the heart of Merivale are here to help you create something that speaks volumes. Whether you choose delicate pastel posies , lush seasonal blooms, or a bold and contemporary design, we craft each arrangement as a personal tribute. We ask our clients about their mother’s favourite colours, the flowers that make her smile, and the overall feeling you want to convey. This often-overlooked step transforms a standard bouquet into a deeply personal gift; we’re not just a flower shop in Christchurch - we’re designers of memory-filled moments punctuated by nature’s best. If you are looking for inspiration to make the flower arrangement extraordinary, consider these additions our Christchurch wedding flowers specialists often recommend: · Native New Zealand botanicals that celebrate our heritage. · Unusual foliage that adds texture and dimension. · Aromatic herbs like lavender or rosemary that engage multiple senses.  · Elegant branches or sculptural elements that create visual interest.

We invite you to continue this beautiful tradition with us. Whether you’re looking for classic elegance, contemporary sophistication, or a flower arrangement bespoke and personal, our Christchurch florists at Fleur by DK are here to help you express your love and gratitude in the most exquisite way possible to the incredible women in your life. The history behind Mother’s Day flowers in Christchurch The tradition of giving flowers on Mother’s Day has deep historical roots. In ancient times, the Greeks and Romans dedicated floral offerings to goddesses associated with motherhood. The custom evolved into a religious observance into ‘Mothering Sunday’ where families would return to their “mother church” and present flowers to their own mothers as a token of love. The modern Mother’s Day of today was popularised by Anna Jarvis in the early 20th century. Her choice of flower - the carnation - became the emblem of a mother’s undying love. Since then, flowers have remained at the heart of Mother’s Day celebrations worldwide, symbolising gratitude, admiration, and devotion.
