Sending flowers is like sending a little piece of sunshine to brighten up someone’s day. Think about the smile that will spread across your mom’s face when she receives a bouquet of her favorite blooms on Mother’s Day. Or imagine the look of surprise and appreciation in your dad’s eyes when he finds a cheerful arrangement just for him on Father’s Day. At Eastern Floral, the premier florist in Grand Rapids, we’re passionate about helping you express your love and gratitude through the language of flowers. So, dive in with us as we explore the best blooms for every person in your family.

Honor Your Matriarchs with Roses and Ranunculus

Show appreciation for the matriarchs in your life with a thoughtful arrangement of roses and ranunculus. Each color of the rose has its own story – yellow roses echo the warmth of friendship, while pinks herald grace, joy, and thankfulness. Complemented by the delicate swirls of ranunculus, which signify gratitude, these blooms come together to form a heartfelt tribute that enhances the beauty of any home or occasion, from Mother’s Day and Grandparents’ Day to average Mondays.

Acknowledge Patriarchs with Birds of Paradise and Orchids

When it comes to celebrating the patriarch of your family—be it your grandfather, dad, or uncle—Birds of Paradise and Orchids are the ultimate gifts. Birds of Paradise, with their bold, tropical vibe, scream joy and good times, perfect for brightening up his space. On the other hand, Orchids bring a splash of color with meanings that hit all the right notes: yellow for friendship, green for prosperity, and purple for respect and admiration. Whether it’s Father’s Day, their birthday, or just because, these tropical blooms say, “you’re the real MVP.”

Salute Your Siblings with Dahlias & Aster

Mark the joys of siblinghood with a colorful bouquet of dahlias and asters. Dahlias reflect the excitement and resilience of your bond (what didn’t kill you made you stronger, right?). For your sisters, include asters to celebrate the essence of sisterhood. National Sibling Day or otherwise, these blooms are a tribute to the joys and journeys of growing up together.

Show Your Extended Family Love with Hydrangea & Peonies

Your extended family is probably amazing—acting as your fun alternate parents, trusted confidants, and the most incredible bonus siblings. There is no better way to express your admiration and love for them than with a stunning mix of peonies and hydrangeas! As symbols of good luck, peonies also represent the deep love you share, and hydrangeas convey your heartfelt gratitude for their constant support and friendship.

Spoil Your Precious Pets with Gerbera Daisy & Sunflowers

Express your gratitude for your pet’s endless loyalty and innocent love with a thoughtful arrangement of Gerbera daisies and sunflowers. These flowers are safe for pets and filled with paw-fect symbolism. Gerbera daisies represent their cheerful innocence, and sunflowers reflect the boundless positivity, happiness, and love they provide.

Sometimes words aren’t enough, but flowers can fill the gaps perfectly. At Eastern Floral, we believe in the magic of petals and stems to show love and gratitude. Let’s create some unforgettable family moments.
