This is a florist’s confession about the sweet, the awkward, and the downright unexpected messages we've been asked to write on flower cards over the years. Messages to Remember—some for their charm, some for their humor, and some for reasons we still can’t quite explain! We thought it would be fun to share some of the most memorable ones with you. Alongside these messages, we’re also showing you the flowers that were ordered for the recipients. While the messages themselves remain unedited, we’ve spared the senders and recipients by keeping their names a mystery.
THE ULTIMATE BIRTHDAY MESSAGE
Despite only knowing you for a chapter of our life, we already considered you a close friend and together we've achieved a lot in a short period of time. Perhaps the finest achievement is all turning 40 together. We're told life begins at 40 so how lucky we are to be all starting it together, no matter what winding roads it takes us. Have the best of milestones. Love, XXX

MESSAGES OF LOVE
Happy Valentine’s Day! I was going to get you something amazing, but then I remembered …. you already have ME! Love you my dear, CU soon. Your Valentine

You are the reason I wake up with a smile every morning. I love every second we are together. I knew right away when I met you that what we have is so special. You hold my heart. Through the happiest and most difficult moments in my life, all I need is you in my life. I can’t wait to settle down one day. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love you ❤️

To my dearest Devil and all his devilish friends, Congratulations on your opening! I am so happy for all of you! I cant be there because the world is fucked, but it doesn't mean the human spirit is dampened! May your opening be filled with blessings and love from the great spirit of Bali and beyond. I love you, I love you, I love you my dragon. With love, Mosquito

Every petal of these sunflowers is a reminder of the countless moments of sunshine you've brought into my life. Hoping they bring a smile to your face as you always do to mine.

My love for you so light, but steady in the wind of change. My heart for you so black, but ready beats for sweet long-range.

The last bouquet was taken by some psycho. Here's a new one for you and for your smile :)

An astutely wise and bearded man once said, “The Moon is imperfect yet every night millions gaze at it reflecting all the light shone upon it for all of us to see. It grounds the earth, it carries us through it's cycles, it's sung about in poems and penned down in the most loving of letters.” Like the Moon you are imperfect but you are someone's light, their grounding, their rhythm, their poem, their love letter. Keep being yourself. Happy Birthday!

MESSAGES OF SORRY
❤ saya merindukan anda ❤ Sorry, I acted like a fool, white chicks do that sometimes when they have a crush at a yellow man 😬

I am sorry a thousand times to infinity … Love you, sorry for being a hot head

MESSAGES FOR MOM OR MOTHER'S DAY
Happy Mother's Day! I miss you both very much and hope to finally see each of you at some point this year. The Orchid bundle is for Oma and the sunflowers and candle is for Mama. Share the chocolates and make sure XXXX and XXXX get some!

Happy Mother's Day mama! Thank you for everything you have done for us, we want you to know how much we appreciate all the hardships you faced to keep us happy and strong. We miss you and cannot wait to see you soon.

Dear Mom, I'm writing this letter to tell you how things are going and that I miss you a lot ..... As I bought flowers for her, the florist said that blue doesn't grow in nature and that purple is nature's blue. Is that true? ..... Everytime I see a flower over here I wonder what you might think about it, and those thoughts will only become more frequent with the coming spring. Thank you for all your support and love, mom. I Love You.

More messages shall be added ...
