5 Reasons Why Flowers are the Perfect Gift

5 Reasons Why Flowers are the Perfect Gift

Did you know that flowers are the perfect gift? If you’re searching for the best gift for your friends, relatives and loved ones, consider surprising them with a stunning display of premium flowers. This blog will discuss five benefits of gifting flowers and tell you why flowers are the perfect gift. 

  1. They’re the Perfect Centrepiece 

When you’re headed to a dinner party or special celebration hosted by a friend or family member, arriving with flowers in hand is a great gift that serves many purposes. Whether you surprise your host with a generous rose bouquet or an elegant arrangement of classic carnations, any gift of premium blooms is more than a thoughtful token of your appreciation.

Every display of flowers arranged in a vase also makes for an eye-catching centrepiece that is sure to light up the room. Not only will your friend absolutely adore this thoughtful gift, but they will also love the addition to their party decor. 

  1. Express What Words Cannot 

Gifting flowers to the people you care for is a timeless tradition that goes back centuries. In Victorian times it was considered improper to express your feelings out loud, so it became a tradition to let a lovely bouquet say what they could not.

Even though so many years have passed since this time, and we are no longer forbidden from speaking our truths to the people we care for, sometimes there are things that cannot be expressed in words. That’s why we’ve carried on the tradition of gifting flowers. If you’re unable to find the words to tell your sister how proud you are of her academic accomplishments, an elegant display of purple asters can say it for you. If you’re too shy to tell that special someone how you feel, a charming arrangement of pink roses is the perfect way to express new love. 

  1. Perfect for Every Occasion 

From birthday parties, anniversary celebrations, holiday dinners and more, there is no event or a special occasion where an elegant bouquet of carnations or generous tulip display would be an unwelcome gift. With so many different varieties of luxury flowers to choose from, you’re always guaranteed to be able to find the perfect posy for any upcoming event. 

  1. A Gift of Happiness and Cheer 

Did you know that studies show that flowers actually make people happier? With their bright shades, cheery blooms and delightful scents, people actually feel happier and calmer when looking at a lovely display of florals. That’s why gifting flowers to your loved ones is more than just a generous gesture and a thoughtful gift, it’s actually proven to make them happy. What could be a better present than that?

  1. Available Wherever You Are 

No matter where you’re located, it’s easy to visit My Basket's online flower shop. Whether you’re on the go or staying at home, you can have access to all our incredible floral collections online with just a few clicks. Send flowers to your loved ones from the comfort of your home or surprise them with a gift you ordered when you were across the ocean enjoying a vacation. Our online flower shop makes it so easy to show your loved ones you’re thinking of them as they enjoy special moments in their lives.

Even if you’re unable to be with them during special occasions, our fast flower delivery in Toronto and the GTA makes it easy to send flowers right to their home. You can have a premium display of peonies or a lovely daisy arrangement arriving at their door the very same day you place the order with our simple-to-use same-day flower delivery service. Just ensure your order is placed before 11:00 AM and we take of everything else.

Happy Birthday Combo (Includes Flowers)
A lovely bunch & gift combo

A U.K. customer used an AI agent to find local florists in Kitchener and Waterloo, (Canada), and My Baskets was recommended. Ordering was easy, and delivery was on time. The recipient loved the gift and was pleasantly surprised. They video called the sender and showed them the combo - the sender was very happy with the purchase.

The recipient suggested that delivery to include a knock or notification, as the gift was left at the door. Also in addition to this combo, recommend offering gift combinations with a slightly more savoury option.
