This International Women’s Day – let us celebrate this important day by sending the special women in your life special celebratory flowers. Women have come a really long way from the year 1956, when 20 000 brave women descended on the Union Building in protest of the awful pass laws that were enforced in the days when apartheid was live and well and still in existence.
Flowers especially for women

Certain types of flowers carry special meanings, which make a perfect addition to any bouquet of flowers for Women's Day. Blooms symbolizing what women are – whether it is strength, kindness, beauty, joy, courage or devotion. Flowers always make a very meaningful gift. Here are some ideas what to send when putting that special bouquet together:
Gladioli are brightly coloured flowers which are symbolic of strength of character.
Tiny rosebuds are traditional and symbolize purity and loveliness. A pink rose represents grace and happiness.
Sunflowers, with their happy, bright faces are a token of adoration.
Bright blooms of a yellow Alstroemeria are symbolic of wealth, prosperity and fortune.
To delight the women who are special in your life, why not surprise them on women’s day with a special bouquet of a variety of flowers with traditional meanings? This is both thoughtful and memorable, whether this is for a colleague, your mother, your partner, girlfriend, aunt or sister.

Sending a flower gift with a variety of flowers with traditional meanings is a thoughtful gesture
which any woman would love and appreciate.
