<\/figure>\n\n\n\n2nd Anniversary \u2013 Cosmos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Cosmos flowers represent harmony, beauty, resilience, kindness and infinity, which makes them a wonderful option for a 2nd anniversary bouquet. These pretty blooms come in shades of pink, crimson, rose, lavender and purple and even though they look delicate and fragile they are surprisingly hardy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3rd Anniversary \u2013 Sunflower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Standing tall and strong, with dazzling yellow petals, the sunflower signifies optimism, loyalty and happiness<\/a> \u2013 so what could be more appropriate to mark your 3rd anniversary? These cheery blooms brighten up any room and always put a smile on people\u2019s faces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Geraniums are the traditional flowers to mark 4 years together. Why? Because they represent the positive things in life, like happiness, friendship and good health \u2013 exactly what every couple hopes for. With their vibrant colours, aromatic scent and longevity, they will add the finishing touch to your anniversary bouquet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Simple and classy, daisies symbolise fidelity and true love. In days gone by they were referred to as \u201cday\u2019s eyes\u201d because their petals close over the centre at night and open again in the morning \u2013 which is where the phrase \u201cas fresh as a daisy\u201d came from. These days they are often used in bridal bouquets as well as for 5th anniversaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The gorgeous calla lily is a symbol of love so no wonder it features so frequently in wedding bouquets. With their long, elegant petals and arrow shaped leaves these blooms are also known as traditional 6th wedding anniversary flowers. We can\u2019t think of a more suitable bouquet to express your love after 6 years together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Fragrant freesias come in a host of eye-catching hues \u2013 white, cream, yellow, orange, red, pink, mauve, lavender and purple \u2013 and each colour has a different meaning. Yellow symbolises friendship<\/a> and optimism, red represents love and passion and pink signifies femininity and love \u2013 perfect for a 7th anniversary gift for your other half. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The clematis has more than 300 species of clematis of different shapes and sizes, all with different meanings. Pink clematis is associated with happiness, gentleness, joy and love while purple clematis symbolises success, admiration, loyalty and elegance but there are a range of other colours too. By your 8th year together you\u2019ll know exactly which colour your partner likes best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After 9 years you\u2019ll want to reflect on your time as a couple and look forward to the future. Poppies, with their bright red petals, are commonly associated with the First and Second World Wars but they also represent hope and imagination, making them the ideal flowers for a 9th anniversary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A decade together is definitely something to celebrate. As well as being the national flower of Wales, the daffodil is the 10th wedding anniversary flower. With their sunny yellow petals and long stems, daffodils symbolise rebirth and hope<\/a> and always put us in an upbeat mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now you\u2019re into your next decade as a couple you\u2019ll want to celebrate in style. The morning glory flower represents undying love, which makes it a fitting choice for an 11th anniversary celebration. Incidentally, its memorable name comes from the way its pretty purple, pink or white flowers unfurl in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sweet scented and soft petalled, the peony represents 12 years together as a duo. This elegant and graceful flower symbolises romance, prosperity, good fortune and a happy marriage<\/a> so it\u2019s a brilliant bloom to show the apple of your eye how much you love them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chrysanthemums are popular the world over \u2013 and we\u2019re not surprised. Symbolising longevity, fidelity, joy and optimism, these stunning flowers will delight your loved one on your 13th anniversary. The fact that they last for up to three weeks in a vase<\/a> is a bonus. With their jewel-like colours and pretty petals, what\u2019s not to like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dahlias are commonly associated with commitment and kindness \u2013 key ingredients of a happy partnership, we reckon. Distinctive and dashing, they come in a multitude of vivid colours. From the palest pink to deep purple to bright orange, they always stand out from the crowd. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Roses are red<\/a>, violets are blue, sugar is sweet \u2013 and so are you. No flower represents love and passion<\/a> more than the classic red rose. Fifteen years is a very special milestone so you can\u2019t go wrong with a magnificent bouquet of roses. If you\u2019re after a romantic way to show your love, look no further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Asters signify patience, faith, love and wisdom \u2013 the kind of traits that make for a successful romantic partnership. Twenty years together is no mean feat so giving the love of your life a bouquet that features these delicate, star-shaped blooms will demonstrate how much you care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It probably seems no time at all since you first met and now you\u2019re celebrating a quarter of a century together. The iris symbolises strength, courage and admiration so these tall, striking flowers are the ideal way to express your enduring love for each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As well as signifying pride and devotion<\/a>, lilies represent the 30 years you have spent as a twosome \u2013 from the passion of first love to the contentment of growing older together. These statuesque blooms, with their flamboyant flowers, always look and smell divine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Forty years as a happy couple is an incredible achievement so it\u2019s important to celebrate in style. Gladioli originate from South Africa and are said to symbolise strength, integrity and generosity but we love them for their bold, clashing colours and trumpet-like heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we say anything else, loads of congratulations on celebrating a half-century together. Not surprisingly, golden weddings are traditionally associated with yellow or golden flowers so yellow roses<\/a>, which represent the enduring power of your relationship, are perfect. Some lovebirds combine yellow roses and violets to make a striking arrangement. Yellow and violet represent a long and happy relationship and look wonderful as part of a bouquet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking for the perfect flowers for your anniversary?
