Top 5 Flowers That Make the Perfect Romantic Gift

Romance is an emotion best expressed with elegance, sincerity, and a touch of timeless beauty. Throughout the ages, flowers have served as the perfect symbol of love—each bloom speaking its own silent language of affection, admiration, or deep emotional connection.

At Plaza Hollandi, we believe that romantic gestures deserve more than clichés—they deserve artistry. Whether you’re planning an anniversary surprise, a heartfelt apology, or a spontaneous gift just because, choosing the right flower can elevate your message into something unforgettable. Here are the top five flowers that make the perfect romantic gift—each carefully chosen for its symbolism, visual beauty, and emotional resonance.

1. Red Roses – A Timeless Declaration

If romance were a flower, it would undoubtedly be the red rose. A symbol of deep love and passion, red roses are the ultimate classic. Their rich hue, velvety petals, and captivating fragrance make them an unforgettable gesture of love and desire.

At Plaza Hollandi, we offer premium Dutch red roses that are hand-selected for their perfection. Our floral designers craft them into lush arrangements wrapped in luxurious textures or presented in elegant vases. Whether it’s a single stem or a full bouquet of 50, a red rose arrangement never fails to make a statement.

Perfect for: Anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, bold romantic confessions
Pair with: One of our artisan candles or a bilingual message card (English/Arabic) for added intimacy

2. Orchids – The Bloom of Elegant Love

Exotic and alluring, orchids are for the romantics who appreciate mystery, grace, and quiet strength. These flowers symbolize rare beauty and long-lasting admiration—ideal for expressing a love that is sophisticated and enduring.

Phalaenopsis orchids, one of our customer favourites, are known for their longevity and serene appearance. We often pair them with sculptural vases and minimalist planters that match their modern elegance. They’re also perfect for indoor gifting, adding a sense of tranquility and luxury to any space.

Perfect for: Refined love, new beginnings, elegant home surprises
Pair with: A glass vase from our curated collection or a scented home accessory

3. Peonies – Romantic and Rare

Peonies bloom briefly, but their impact lasts forever. These soft, round blossoms symbolize bashful romance, prosperity, and the sweet anticipation of a future together. Their delicate ruffles and pastel tones make them a favourite for weddings, proposals, and intimate gifting.

As a seasonal flower, peonies are considered a luxury—and at Plaza Hollandi, we make sure every peony bouquet we offer is of impeccable quality. Soft pinks, creamy whites, and coral hues are carefully arranged to create an atmosphere of dreamy affection.

Perfect for: Proposals, new relationships, or celebrating emotional growth
Pair with: A velvet ribbon or a pastel-toned wrap for a feminine, refined touch

4. Tulips – A Whisper of True Love

Simple, understated, and full of meaning, tulips are one of the most versatile romantic flowers. Symbolizing deep, perfect love, tulips speak of honesty and comfort—ideal for long-term partners or anyone who prefers a more modern, minimal gesture.

Available in a wide variety of colours, each tulip sends a different message: red for passion, yellow for cheerful love, pink for admiration. We source our tulips directly from Holland and arrange them in bold mono-colour bouquets or mixed spring-inspired styles.

Perfect for: Birthdays, casual romantic surprises, cultural holidays
Pair with: A sleek wrap or paired in a gift box with chocolate and candles

5. Hydrangeas – The Flower of Deep Emotion

Hydrangeas are lush, voluminous blooms that represent heartfelt emotion, gratitude, and the depth of understanding in love. Their large, cloud-like appearance is both romantic and comforting, making them a perfect gift for someone who has stood by your side through thick and thin.

Our hydrangea arrangements are often paired with greenery, complementary flowers, and high-end textures to create depth and sophistication. Choose blue for calm devotion, pink for heartfelt emotion, or white for sincerity and grace.

Perfect for: Long-term relationships, saying thank you, or reconnecting emotionally
Pair with: A handwritten letter or a statement ceramic vase
