Flower bouquets have a history stretching back thousands of years and a cultural significance that spans every corner of the world. Whether you're choosing a bouquet for a birthday, an anniversary, or a quiet just-because moment, understanding a little more about them helps you choose better.
Symbolism and the language of flowers
Different flowers carry different meanings. Red roses speak of love and passion; white lilies of purity and peace; sunflowers of warmth and friendship. During the Victorian era, this "language of flowers" — known as floriography — became a formalised system, allowing people to send coded messages through their floral choices. That tradition still influences how we think about flowers today. Explore our flower bouquets to find the right bloom for your occasion.
Types of bouquets
Bouquets come in distinct styles. A hand-tied bouquet is the most classic: stems gathered by hand, wrapped in paper or ribbon. A round bouquet clusters blooms into a dome shape, popular for weddings. A cascading bouquet — sometimes called a waterfall — trails downward and suits grand occasions. A nosegay is small and tightly arranged, ideal as a thoughtful compact gift.
Roses, the perennial favourite
Among all cut flowers, roses remain the most requested worldwide. A classic dozen red roses is timeless, but modern bouquets expand on that — mixing colours, adding texture with baby's breath or eucalyptus, or scaling up to 101 red roses for the grandest gestures. Browse our rose bouquet collection to see the full range.
Seasonal availability
While hothouse growing makes most flowers available year-round, seasonal choices tend to be fresher, more fragrant and better value. In Dubai, our florists source fresh stock daily to ensure every bouquet meets the same standard regardless of the time of year.
Preserving a bouquet
Bouquets can be preserved as keepsakes through drying, pressing or resin encapsulation. A pressed flower from a meaningful bouquet can last decades. For cut flowers at home, trim stems at an angle, change water daily and keep them away from direct sunlight to maximise their life.
