Making mistakes in relationships is unavoidable, so managing conflict in a correct way is crucial. And flowers are a great way of toning down the pressure and bringing back those positive vibes and tender feelings towards each other. But what kind of flowers will do the job? Let's find the perfect apology bouquet.
Why flowers?
The act of giving flowers is a sign that you care about somebody. You care enough to spend your time and money on getting a bouquet, which already speaks for itself. But the choice of flowers can also be expressive and add to your apology since the flower language is sometimes more persuasive than words!
What kind of flowers?
While there are no rules in flower giving, there are some aspects and flower meanings you might want to take into account when choosing your present after a conflict:
-
aim for a composition of the person's favorite flowers or colors if you know what those are;
-
don't tie yourself to thinking that the size or cost of the bouquet is to correspond with how bad the situation is - you don't want to make the person think you're trying to buy their forgiveness;
-
feel free to experiment with what the bouquet consists of: include sweets, fruit or other non-floral details if you think that can make the person smile;
-
add a cute card with some words from the bottom of your heart, a candle, a fluffy toy or a ticket to their favorite performance to add warmth to your present - rely on the person's preferences;
-
luxurious roses, calla lilies and orchids will definitely please the person, emphasizing the lush desire for forgiveness and rebuilding that trust;
-
bright gerberas, sunflowers and peonies generously illustrate the strong energy of the sun, hence the birth of life and bloom, which will undoubtedly replace the gloom and offence;
-
lovely and touching spring flowers, such as tulips, daffodils and snowdrops remind of the approaching spring, the awakening of nature and the excitement that all living creatures experience so they will warm the person's soul with hope for a brighter future in your relationships.
Probably the most important thing to keep in mind when you're making an apology is to ensure that it's sincere and honest. It's not the flowers that are going to express how sorry you are to experience a negative situation with the person, nor the words you say. It's all in your eyes.
The point of getting apology flowers is to make a gesture with your gift to let the person know that you are still there for them regardless of the troubles you two go through and whose fault it is.
