A Monthly Guide for Picking Perfect Birthday Flowers

By Natalie Aranda

Flowers are the preferred birthday gift of most individuals because they are beautiful, cheerful and natural. Different months of the year have corresponding flowers, much like birthstones. This monthly guide is a great way to surprise the birthday girl or boy with a beautiful bouquet of flowers especially for the month of their birth.

January is the snowdrop and carnation; February the primrose and violet; March the violet and jonquil; April flowers are the daisy and sweet pea; May represents lily of the valley and hawthorn; June is the rose and honeysuckle; July the water lily and larkspur; August represents the gladiolus and poppy; September the Morning Glory and Aster; October the Marigold; November, chrysanthemum; and December birthday's the Poinsettia and Holly.

Remember, the monthly guide to flowers provides a basis for picking out flowers for a man or a woman, but other flowers are appropriate as well depending on whether you are buying them for a family member or the love of your life.

It was my mom's birthday back in summer 1998. I was in London and she was in Birmingham. I decided to head to the internet. Typing in "flowers London", then "florists Birmingham", I found the perfect flowers for her birthday. The flowers can be ordered online from London and sent to Birmingham, and would arrive early next morning.

Regardless of whose birthday it is whether man or woman, son or daughter, husband or wife, girlfriend or boyfriend, flowers are always an appropriate and thoughtful gift that will be appreciated immensely.
