Valentine's Day, a day synonymous with love, is a canvas waiting to be painted with heartfelt gestures and meaningful celebrations. At Patricia's Flowers, we believe that flowers play a pivotal role in expressing emotions, making Valentine's Day a blooming spectacle of love and affection.


The Language of Flowers: Expressing Love with Blooms


Valentine's Day and flowers are a match made in florist heaven. The tradition of gifting flowers on this day has deep-rooted symbolism – each bloom conveying a unique sentiment. Roses, the classic ambassadors of love, dominate the scene with their diverse colours expressing everything from passion to friendship.

Red roses, the epitome of romantic love, are a staple on Valentine's Day. However, the celebration has evolved to include a spectrum of hues. Pink for admiration, white for purity, and even yellow for friendship – there's a rose for every shade of love.
