What kind of flowers would you like to be sent?

hey guys, i'd appreciate your opinions on this one. been dating a girl for a coupla months, she just went back across the water to university, i'm visiting in two weeks' time but before then i'd like to send her flowers. i've already decided to include this cool little penguin teddy thing in with them, he has sunglasses and a scarf, i think it'll make her smile cos we saw penguins at the zoo last week and she loved them. anyhoo, i'm stumped. lilies/roses/orchids, somthing simple/cool/what?

thanks in advance, you never let me down!

Hey Soph - any idea what flowers she likes? I'd hate to suggest something then have her think "ugh I don't like those" or be allergic or something.



Anyway, I have a fondness for yellow roses and blue irises together. I know - I'm weird! The yellow in the blue irises complements the yellow roses and the blue of the irises contrasts. I just think they're lovely together.

edit2: awww i love the penguin awww!!!
Reply:I assume you have verified that she is not allergic to flowers and/or scent first . . .



I like your orchid idea. Something simple, all on the same color scheme, can be quite nice as well; for example purple iris, calla lilies and snapdragons.
Reply:Orchids are sophisticated and not as cliche as roses. I love moonflower but it doesn't make good bouquets. I would go with orchids.

Reply:My favorite flower is a daisy. It lasts for a long time and they are beautiful. I think everybody does roses and to me they always followed a fight or something bad. Especially red ones but maybe I'm just jaded. It means a lot to me when someone takes the time to learn what I prefer. Daisies for me. Also i think it goes back to the loves me loves me not thing when I was a little girl...

Reply:I like the Lily of the Valley. It's simple, yet elegant.
Reply:The flowers you chose are stunning and I'm sure the penguin will put a smile on your girlfriends face :)
Reply:You could send a rainbow assortment of roses, one of every different color. I've done that and women love it. If you decide on an orchid send a live plant. They are tough and bloom for a long time, that way every time she sees it she will smile thinking of you. Good luck and have a great trip. I hope this helps.
