In Miami, flowers are more than just decoration or a holiday gift. They’re a way to express emotions, showcase style, and even tell a story. At Flower House Miami, we’ve noticed which flowers our customers love most — and what each bloom means.

1. Orchid — Exotic Elegance of Miami

Orchids are a top favorite in Miami. These stunning flowers symbolize luxury, refinement, and passion.

• Perfect for anniversaries, elegant home décor, or to show deep admiration.
• White orchids represent purity and harmony, purple — respect and strength, pink — love and sophistication.

2. Rose — The Queen of Emotions

Nothing says “I love you” like a red rose. But in Miami, other shades are just as popular:

• Pink — for gratitude and sweetness
• White — innocence and new beginnings
• Orange — energy and enthusiasm

Roses are versatile and work for any occasion, from romantic gestures to professional arrangements.

3. Lily — Purity and Respect

Lilies are often chosen for weddings, formal events, or to convey deep respect.

• White lilies represent sincerity and calm
• Orange lilies inspire creativity
• Pink lilies symbolize femininity and compassion

4. Sunflower — Sunshine in a Vase

Especially loved in the summer, sunflowers bring joy, warmth, and positivity.

• Popular for celebrations, housewarmings, and birthdays
• A symbol of loyalty, optimism, and inner strength

5. Alstroemeria — Friendship and Loyalty

These charming, long-lasting flowers symbolize strong bonds and support.

• A great gift for friends, coworkers, or anyone you appreciate
• Often used to add volume and contrast to bouquets

When you give or receive a bouquet, you want it to stay beautiful as long as possible. But without proper care, even the most luxurious flowers can wilt in just a few days. At Flower House Miami, we’ve put together a simple guide to help your flowers stay vibrant and fresh — especially in the warm climate of South Florida.

1. Use a clean vase and cool water

• Wash the vase with soap before placing flowers inside. Any leftover bacteria can cause flowers to deteriorate quickly.
• Fill with cool water — it helps keep stems firm and fresh, especially in the Miami heat.

2. Trim the stems at an angle

• Use a sharp knife or floral shears.
• Cut stems at about a 45° angle to increase water absorption.
• Re-trim every 2–3 days for best results.

3. Remove any leaves below the waterline

• Leaves submerged in water will rot and produce bacteria.
• Strip lower leaves, leaving only the top ones for decoration.

4. Add flower food or DIY alternatives

• All of our bouquets include a packet of flower food — just mix it into the water.
• No packet? No problem. Use:
• 1 teaspoon of sugar (for nourishment)
• 1 teaspoon of vinegar or lemon juice (to reduce bacteria and balance pH)

5. Change the water daily

• Even if it looks clean, water accumulates bacteria quickly.
• Rinse the vase thoroughly each time you refresh it.

6. Keep flowers out of direct sunlight and heat

• Sunlight and heat speed up the wilting process.
• The best place is a cool room with indirect light.

7. Keep flowers away from fruit

• Fruits (especially bananas and apples) emit ethylene gas, which accelerates flower aging.

Long-Lasting Flower Types:

• Chrysanthemums, carnations, alstroemeria, orchids, and lilies.
• If you want a bouquet that lasts, just let us know — we’ll pick the freshest, most durable blooms!

Final Thoughts:

Cut flowers bring beauty and emotion into your space. With a few simple care steps, you can enjoy your bouquet for days longer and keep the atmosphere in your home feeling joyful and alive.
