2016 is officially underway, and we have some fantastic gift ideas for all of the January birthdays in your life.

One fantastic way to celebrate January birthdays is by sending a bouquet that is thematic of garnet, the month’s birthstone. Our Glow of Garnet bouquet features roses, tulips, hydrangea, and lilies arranged together in a cube with red decor. The symbolism of garnet makes this a perfect bouquet to give to a friend because it represents eternal friendship, loyalty and sincerity.

As the official birth flower of January, it is entirely appropriate to send carnations to all of your loved ones celebrating this month! Because of their many colors, carnations are exceptionally festive and make for cheerful and fun bouquets ready to brighten up the party. We should also note that the carnation is in charge of another “first” – as the flower chosen to represent first anniversaries, it holds a special place in honoring couples.

The significance of carnations doesn’t end with January birthdays – not even close! Carnations are also closely associated with both mothers and babies – pink carnations make up the classic Mother’s Day bouquet, and often appear in new baby arrangements as well. It makes sense, as a pink carnation signifies a mother’s pure love and affection. For both new arrivals and for the May holiday, carnations are the flowers of choice.
