Too busy to choose (or read this full blog)? Pick your floral path below:
- Best Overall: XOXO (classic, not basic)
- Not a roses person: Cupid Coded or Red Lip Classic
- Traditionalist: Left on Red (traditional red roses)
- Budget-Conscious Gifter: Meet Cute | Light Hearted | Ojos Así

Roses are red… unless your partner prefers blush and ranunculus. According to our 2026 Valentine's Day Survey, the best flowers aren’t the most traditional - they’re the most thoughtful. In fact, 87% of women surveyed said they'd prefer something chosen with them in mind, not just what the calendar dictates.
So let’s talk about how to do Valentine’s Day right—whether you’re sending love to your sweetheart, your best friend, or (praise be) yourself. From romantic bouquets to cute add-ons and options that won’t break the bank, this guide is here to help you gift with heart.
After all, our bouquets have been on the news lately, so if you don’t trust our taste, feel free to take a peek at what editors from Oprah Daily, Forbes, and even CNN are saying, here.
Best Overall: When in Doubt, Go with a Classic (That Isn’t Basic)
First up, if you’re short on time but still want to knock it out of the park, our pick for Best Overall Valentine’s Day gift is XOXO, a burlap-wrapped beauty with 20+ stems of vibrant flowers, featuring roses, spray roses, tulips, stock, lisianthus and more in heart-warming hues of burgundies, pinks, and reds.
It’s heartfelt without being overdone. Feels elegant, special, and most importantly, it’s one gorgeous bouquet that’s also available in many sizes! Think of it as the little black dress of bouquets, always appropriate, always stunning.
How to Choose the Right Valentine’s Day Flowers
Now, for those who have a bit more time and want to dive into the art of flower gifting with us, here’s how we would do it.
Step 1: Know Thy Valentine (or Thyself!)
Let’s kick things off with the big one: How do I even begin to choose?
Here’s your answer: start with them. Our 2026 Valentine’s Day Report showed us that what women really want is something personal, emotionally attuned, and timed with care.
Red roses are traditionally romantic (and we have gorgeous ones if that’s their thing), but love isn’t one-size-fits-all. Love can be bold or soft, quiet or loud. It can be for your partner, your best friend, your grandma - or yes, for yourself.
So here’s how to find the flowers that feel right:
Do you know their favorite flower?
If you do, that’s gold. Go with that! We only offer flowers that are truly in season, so you’ll be sending farm-fresh stems that will last.
Here are a few of our seasonal stars:
- Roses & Garden Roses: Classic and gorgeous. (Psst—Garden Roses are our CEO Christina’s favorite!)
- Tulips: Symbol of perfect love, and they just keep getting better as they open.
- Ranunculus: A fan-fave with layer upon layer of beauty.
- Sunflowers: Yes, even in February. Bright, bold, and full of good vibes.
Find all our in-season options, here.
Step 2: If You Know Their Favorite Color…
Color is personal—and powerful. Studies show it’s tied to identity and emotion. If you know what shade they love, you’re halfway to gifting genius.
Browse bouquets by color:
- White – “White Specialty Ranunculus” – Clean, classic, minimal-chic.
- Yellow – “Gold Status” – Bright, bold, full of joy.
- Orange – “Extra Hop” – Peachy tones with personality.
- Neutrals – “Soft Focus” – Cozy, calming, and chic.
- Pink – “Cupid Coded” – A true showstopper.
- Red – “Left on Red” – Three dozen deep red roses. (Mic drop.)
- Blue – “Más Ojos Así” – 40 stems of blue anemones = statement made.
- Purple – “Lindy Hop” – Lavender and lilac perfection.
Don’t know their fave color? That’s okay, skip to the next section.
Step 3: If You Don’t Know Their Favorite Anything (That’s Okay!)
Real talk: this is where most people land. You want to send something beautiful, but you're not 100% sure what they like. We’ve absolutely been there.
So here’s the safe-but-still-thoughtful choice: Our Pink and Reds Collection. These bouquets are seasonally stunning, romantic without being cliché, and way more modern than the dozen red roses + baby’s breath combo of yesteryear.
Bouquets like:
- “To Have and to Hold” – Pink and red roses, beautifully designed.
- “XOXO” – 20+ stems of wrapped, hand-selected blooms.
- “Red Lip Classic” – Red anemones + ranunculus? Yes, please.
Valentine’s Day Picks by Person (and Budget)
Because the best bouquet depends on who you’re gifting (and the vibe you’re going for).
For the Traditionalist (Red Rose Loyalists, This One’s for You)
For the 10% who really mean it when they say “don’t change a thing,” we see you—and we’ve got you.
- “Left on Red” – Three dozen classic red roses.
- “Mad Romance” – A rose-heavy stunner with modern flair.
- “Redder Velvet” – Drama, but make it floral.
When it's for the traditionalist, the key is to do it really well!

Love doesn’t have to come with sticker shock. Our under-$100 bouquet faves:

- “Meet Cute” – $75, sweet and stylish.
- “Light Hearted” – $89, soft + versatile.
- “Ojos Así” – $55 for 20 blue anemones, aka a total steal.
For Your Galentine
Send love to the ones who hype you up, keep your secrets, and text you “home safe?” every night out.
Top picks for your non-soulmate soulmate:
- “Shape of My Heart Wreath” – Because love comes in all forms (especially heart-shaped).
- “Embraceable You” – A bouquet with big best-friend-energy.
- “Heart Hair Clips” or “Valentine’s Heart Socks” – Cute, cozy, and under $20.

Remember: add-ons vary by delivery location, so double-check what’s available in your recipient’s zip!
For You (Yes, You!)
Because self-love is always in season. Treat yourself to:
- “Springamajig” – A wild, pastel bouquet that screams “main character energy.”
- “Adore Bath Bomb” + Ojai Lavender Candle – For peak at-home spa vibes.
- “California Gummy Bears” + a glass of rosé – No notes, just yes.
You deserve beauty, too, but a little sweet something and a spa-at-home treat just make everything better!
Our Final Thoughts: The Most Romantic Gesture? Thoughtfulness.
Whether you’re going classic or modern, gifting a partner or pampering yourself, the goal is the same: choose with intention. Because what our survey made crystal clear is this—people don’t just want to feel loved. They want to feel seen.
Let’s make this Valentine’s Day a little less performative and a lot more personal.
