Do people have floral counterparts? A look that matches personality type to a tee? Absolutely. In
shop talk, it’s called a floral signature. And, to professional florists, the art of customizing floral gifts
to match personalities is a natural talent. For gifts of a perfect fit, start with these descriptors:
Romantics are dreamers – generous, spontaneous, sometimes extravagant – and are drawn to
bouquets of soft colors, light fragrances and accents of lace or ribbon.
The Traditional personality is trustworthy, family-oriented, prefers classic styles and appreciates
lush arrangements with a great variety of flowers.
Dramatic personalities are impulsive, cutting-edge trendsetters who relish bold floral
arrangements with strong color statements and contemporary containers.
Creative and expressive, someone who delights in the arts and the unconventional, the Artistic
personality enjoys exotic flowers and unusual combinations of shape, color and texture.
Natural types are casual, earthy and prefer the outdoors… naturally. Flowering or green plants,
meadow flowers and woodsy accents suit this personality best.
Nothing reflects the spirit of individuality like flowers. Stop by or call us today for floral gifts that
blossom with personality.
