What Do Purple Flowers Mean?
Purple flowers represent royalty, as well as being enchanted with your lover. Purple bouquets are the perfect option to show your loved one just how much they mean to you on anniversaries or even Valentine's Day without choosing a classic colour palette such as red and white. The varying shades of purple our flowers come in when combined will create a beautiful, rich statement for your loved one and show them how valued and special they really are. When it comes to purple bouquets, we have the perfect option for you.
The Splendid Day Bouquet combines rich, dark purples with understated lilac selections to create an elegant, lush effect making it the perfect option for a surprise anniversary dinner outdoors or even as a "just because" surprise for any day of the year!

What Do White Flowers Mean?
White flowers have long been a symbol of purity and innocence. Traditionally you will see white floral bouquets being used in wedding ceremonies by the bride while she is walking down the aisle. Here at Ottawa Flowers, we have dozens of bouquet arrangements to choose from, but here is our favourite option for a white bridal bouquet.

Pink flowers, similar to red flowers represent love. However, pink flowers are frequently used in women's funeral processions to represent calmness, affection for the person who has moved on, and subtle, elegant femininity. We have dozens of options for pink floral arrangements and easels, but this is our magnum opus.
The Lovely Tribute Bouquet is a gorgeous, elegant floral bouquet to express your love, and respect for a loved one.

Order the Lovely Tribute Bouquet to make a beautiful, respectful statement.
What Do Black Flowers Mean?
Black flowers have been seen as a symbol of mourning for a very long time, however, more recently people have "rebranded" black flowers' significance to be a symbol of modern luxury. You will often see black flower arrangements used at charity events and even weddings hosted by affluent members of our community. The chic contrast from traditional floral arrangements provides a sense of individuality and regality. We offer many floral arrangements here at Ottawa Flowers, however, our black floral offering has been rising in popularity by the day!
