Think that Valentine’s is just for the youngsters? It might surprise you to know that while Millennials are known for splashing the cash around 14th February, Baby Boomers are also happy to spend an average £25.47 on their partner or love interest.

So, how do you select the perfect Valentine's gift for the special person in your life?

Flowers & Cards Are Top Valentine’s Favourites

In a recent YouGov survey, 27% of women would prefer a card, while the same percentage put flowers as their top pick. Perhaps surprisingly, both these choices beat jewellery (17%) and a voucher for a spa or massage (15%). So, why not put both of these together into a - you’ve guessed it - a Flowercard! By combining the beauty of fresh flowers with the thoughtful nature of a handpicked card, you’re bound to please the lady - or man, in your life.

We understand that simplicity, quality and sustainability are of key importance to you - and that’s where Flowercard can help.
