It’s tradition on Valentine’s Day to present your loved one with flowers, but such a heartfelt gesture only lasts so long before fresh flowers wilt. At Floralsilk, we specialise in realistic imitation flowers, meaning your sentimental present can last as long as your love does. We’ve assembled some of our favourites for Valentine’s Day gifts and flowers this year, plus a few tips for something a little unique…
1. Valentine’s Day Single Red Roses
The classic rose is a Valentine’s Day standard, and you can hardly imagine the celebration of it without them. Gifting a rose is a clear symbol of intent, a message of love, and one that is made all the more important by when it’s given. As a result, we’ve got four different red roses, so that your choice can be as unique as your loved one.
Our Faux Gemma Rose has been a best seller year after year, a classic single bloom with a few leaves to contrast the colour. Our Faux Abeba Rose feels like it’s been plucked from an English garden, offering five flower heads for a bigger, if more unusual, single piece. Our Velvet Rose is our most luxurious and romantic, with a beautiful feel and full look.
And lastly, new in this year is our faux rose stem, with beautifully realistic petals in a full bloom, making it absolutely perfect to provide a little romance, coming in dark pink.
However you gift your rose, they will say the words for you.
2. Valentine’s Day Bouquet
A bunch of flowers is quintessentially a heartfelt gift, and our faux flower bouquets arrive with you delicately hand-wrapped as if they’d been picked up from the florist. Though any of our bouquets make a fantastic choice, and you’ll find more on this list as we go on, this year we’ve introduced the perfect Valentine’s Bouquet in the With Love Bouquet. Adding a mixture of romantic blooms with on-trend seasonal styles, it’s a modern gift that you can guarantee they won’t have received before.
3. Valentine’s Orchid
Did you know that orchids are one of our oldest documented floral gifts in history? Orchids have been gifted for centuries, becoming symbols of respect, warmth, and enduring relationships. However, gifting fresh orchids comes with the responsibility to care for them, with particular conditions, maintenance, and sunlight requirements. Whilst we love Orchids as a gift, we love even more a gift that looks after itself, and so we have a fantastic range of Artificial Orchids that are lifelike in looks, beautifully styled in a range of pots, and available in different sizes and colours.
4. A Hand-Selected Bouquet of their Favourite Flowers
If your loved one loves flowers, but perhaps doesn’t want roses, we’ve got a huge range of different flowers to pick from – and the benefit, of course, being that you’re no longer limited by season. Perhaps your loved one loves a Peony, a winter stem, or even a favourite colour. We have a range of bouquets that were assembled in-house by our experts, so you can rest knowing they’ll look fantastic.
5. Valentine’s Day Tulips
Years of expertise in faux flowers means that we are at the forefront of what people are looking to purchase, and in more recent years, we’ve seen Tulips becoming a favourite for Valentine’s Day gifts. The bright flower is a lovely symbol of spring, and after a gloomy winter, we love to see the first colours of them appear – though for the fresh version, they aren’t always available in time for Valentine’s Day.
Of course, with artificial flowers, they’re available when you need them, and we need never see them wilt away. We have a wide range of colours available in tulips, so you can choose from a single colour, or mix and match as you please, or we also have potted or arrangements in vases, that require no further effort than placing them in their new home.
6. Unique Valentine’s Day Bouquet of Faux Flowers
If you know their favourite flower or want to recreate a bouquet from a past occasion or perhaps even a wedding, it’s easy enough to do so by combining faux stems. You can even add in new colours or styles for your own gifting flair. Alternatively, if you’re not confident in assembling a whole bouquet, but still want to add your own unique touch to it, check out our inspiration bouquet page, which shows which flowers have gone into each bouquet, and make your changes from there. We’ve also got tips on how best to arrange it.
7. A Beautiful Valentine's Day Floral Arrangement
An alternative to a bouquet is to go a step further and gift an artificial flower arrangement. These come in a vase, with most set in resin so that they remain as beautifully arranged when they get to you and are placed, as when our experts assembled them. These come in a range of flowers and sizes, with different vases to suit your home, meaning it’s never been easier to pick the perfect gift.
Why Faux Flowers are Perfect Valentine's Day Gifts
A love that lasts deserves flowers that do the same. But for even more reasons:
- Completely Pet Friendly: Freshly-picked flowers can be hazardous to cats and dogs (and other small animals), but artificial alternatives remove that issue.
- Allergy Friendly: Avoid the impact of pollen or the mess of it with faux
- Maintenance-free: No watering needed, no specific placements, no disposal, just a quick wipe for dust here and there.
- Always look their best: Our artificial flowers are wired, making them much easier to move into the perfect position – and to stay there too!
- Valentine's Day Delivery: Don’t stress about leaving ordering to the last minute for fresh flowers to remain fresh – order your flowers in advance, and they’ll look just as perfect when they’re delivered as when you gift them.
- Cost-Effective: Gifts that last a lifetime.
