A Guide to Receiving “Just Because” Flowers from Your Partner
While there are many ways that your partner can make you feel loved and appreciated, there is something truly special about receiving a bouquet of fresh flowers that caters to your individual preferences. No matter the type of flower, whether a symbolic bloom or your favorite stem, they’re good for your health, they showcase the elegant beauty of nature, and they infuse your space with bright colors and delicate fragrances. That’s on top of upping the romance factor in your relationship, preserving the magic you felt from the very beginning.
Although this is not uncommon on occasions like Valentine’s Day – the mother of all romantic holidays – sometimes getting beautiful blooms with a sweet card message “just because” can feel even more special. Let the floral experts at Al’s Florist, the top flower shop in Hollywood, FL, help you manifest your flower desires.

How to Drop Hints
Comment on someone else’s flowers
Educate them on flowers in your favorite local shop
Talk about your favorite flowers/point them out at your local florist. Say, “If you’re looking to buy me flowers, these have always been my favorite(s).”
Just tell them, “I would really love some fresh flowers in the house.” You have a 50% chance of getting the hint across.
Try again and make sure they hear you this time. Stare them in the eyes, and tell them with a serious face, “Surprises and receiving flowers are important to me, and it would make me happy to get at least one floral arrangement a month. I have set a reminder on your calendar with a list of my favorite seasonal blooms for you to use as a guide.”
