March 8th is the one day a year when celebrating the women around you feels even more special than usual. Whether it's your mam, your best friend, a colleague who always has your back, or a partner who deserves a little extra love — flowers are a simple, beautiful way to say: I see you, and I'm glad you're in my life. 

We've put together this guide to help you choose the right bouquet for everyone you're celebrating. Browse our International Women's Day Flowers to get started. 

The Right Flowers for Every Woman in Your Life 

For Mam — Timeless Blooms That Say Everything 

Mams often put everyone else first, which makes Women's Day a lovely excuse to put her front and centre. She doesn't need anything elaborate — just something that shows you were thinking of her. Soft pinks, creams, and warm blush tones work beautifully here; classic, elegant, and quietly loving. 

Best picks: Soft pink rose bouquets, pastel mixed arrangements, or a classic lily and rose combination. 

For Sisters — Bold, Bright, and a Little Bit Extra 

Your sister knows you better than almost anyone, which means you can skip the subtle and go straight to the joyful. Think vibrant colours, full bouquets, and flowers that make her laugh or gasp when they arrive at the door. This is one relationship where bold flowers feel exactly right. 

Best picks: Colourful mixed bouquets, rainbow tulips, or a big seasonal spring arrangement. 

For Partners — Romantic Without Being Predictable 

Women's Day gives you the chance to show your partner she's appreciated beyond anniversaries and Valentine's. The best choice here isn't necessarily the most romantic-looking — it's the one that feels considered. Soft pinks, peach tones, or an elegant vase arrangement all strike the right balance between heartfelt and refined. 

Best picks: Peach or pink rose bouquets, mixed rose and lily arrangements, or a styled vase display. 

For Friends — Flowers That Feel Like a Hug 

The friends who check in on you, celebrate your wins, and show up when things go wrong deserve more than a text on March 8th. A cheerful bouquet delivered to their door is the kind of surprise that actually means something. Go bright, go fun, and don't overthink it — the gesture itself does the talking. 

Best picks: Bright mixed bouquets, gerberas, tulips, or anything in sunflower yellow or coral. 

For Colleagues & Teachers — Warm, Considered, Professional 

Recognising someone in a professional setting calls for flowers that feel respectful and warm without being overly personal. A neat pastel bouquet or a simple white rose arrangement shows appreciation clearly, without overstepping. It's a small gesture that tends to leave a lasting impression. 

Best picks: White roses, soft pastel arrangements, or a minimalist vase bouquet. 

What Do the Colours Mean? 

If you want your bouquet to carry a little extra meaning, colour is a good place to start. For Women's Day in particular, a few shades stand out: 

• Purple — dignity, strength, and equality (the original colour of Women's Day) 

• Pink — admiration, care, and gratitude 

• White — respect, sincerity, and quiet elegance 

• Yellow — joy, warmth, and friendship

Not Sure Where to Start? A Few Simple Tips 

Choosing flowers doesn't need to be complicated. If you're still deciding, here's what tends to work: 

• Think about her favourite colour or flower first — that alone will narrow things down. 

• Seasonal blooms are always fresh and tend to look more vibrant in arrangements. 

• A handwritten note tucked in with the flowers makes any bouquet feel more personal. 

• When in doubt, a classic rose bouquet in a soft colour is rarely wrong.
