FAQs about flowers for best friends

What flowers mean friendship?
If your looking for flowers for a friend or best friend, you actually have lots of choice! Yellow roses are probably the most commonly known flower that symbolises friendship, but any pale roses also hold this meaning. Irises have a very specific meaning: 'your friendship means so much to me' - you couldn't ask for a better flower! In the winter, arrangements like wreaths and centrepieces made with fir is a great choice to enhance any feelings of close friendship, as the short and flat-needled conifer also has friendship as a symbol. Another fragrant plant that can mean friendship, and is also commonly used in wedding bouquets, is rosemary!
Are there any plants that mean friendship?
The Crassula, aka the money plant, has symbolism in friendship. Gifting someone a Crassula is therefore believed to bring about not only prosperity but also strengthened companionship.
What colour means friendship?
It may come as no surprise to know that the colour that most symbolises friendship is yellow!
When will my flower order be delivered?
Our delivery window is between 8am – 7pm, our courier will send you tracking details and an estimated time of delivery on the morning of your delivery, they also offer in-flight options to manage the delivery, if the recipient is not going to be in, the flowers can be placed in a safely designated place or with a neighbour.
