On March 8th, we will celebrate International Women’s Day. This annual event, which became official in 1946, commemorates the achievements of women and raises awareness of the challenges women still face today. Traditionally, bouquets of mimosas are given to women on International Women’s Day to honor women, but flowers of any kind will do as long as their meaning is sincere. Whether you want to deliver a lovely bouquet of hand-tied fresh stems, orchids, or potted plants, we have the right gift for this special day.
When you gift a flower or plant to a woman on March 8th, you are honoring her because she has inspired you through her character, strength, and many achievements — whether they are social, political, economic, or professional. Giving flowers to women on International Women’s Day shows that you stand in solidarity on the holiday’s entire platform. You also express your unwavering support for her success and continued growth in a world that has many unwritten biases hidden in the fabric of culture.

If you want to give a traditional bouquet, get something in yellow like the mimosa. When you take a look at the mimosa, you will notice its plentiful small, fluffy orbs of yellow flowers and needle-like leaves. As they grow, they cascade over balconies and brighten up the streets like rays of sunshine. This flowering shrub is named after the ancient Greek “mimos,” which means “to act or resemble.” It was chosen because it blooms plentifully this time of year in Italy and has a cheerful color and fragrance. This isn’t a romantic flower, but one that expresses triumph, honor, and friendship.
Need some quick picks that give off that gorgeous mimosa vibe? Check out the Yellow Calla Lily Bouquet, a bold and cheery bouquet of golden yellow calla lilies with fragrant eucalyptus accents. It will brighten up the room just like the plentiful puffs of yellow mimosa blooms.
