Telefloras Be Bright Bouquet
VIA MERCHANT VIA MERCHANT

For the New Mom

Be Bright Bouquet

If shopping for a new or soon-to-be mom, pay attention to how your blooms will arrive. Many services package bouquets in a cardboard box where the recipient then has to cut stems and assemble them. Which, truthfully, can be pretty fun! But it’s also another task on a new mom’s never-ending to-do list.

Teleflora is different. This traditional Mother’s Day flower delivery uses a network of local florists to deliver pre-arranged bouquets. In testing, we were most awed by Teleflora’s fresh roses, and this punchy Be Bright arrangement tucked inside a reusable pitcher vase has a bounty of ’em! Choose from standard, deluxe or premium sizes.

FAQ

Arranging
Emiko Franzen For Taste Of Home

What is the Mother’s Day flower?

Yes, flowers have meanings! White carnations are the closest thing to an “official” Mother’s Day flower, but don’t feel like that’s what you have to order. A wide array of blooms are popular for the holiday, including tulips, peonies, roses, lilies and orchids.

When should I order Mother’s Day flowers 2025?

Mother’s Day falls on Sunday, May 11, so we recommend placing your holiday flower delivery no later than May 4. The earlier you order, the better the selection. You’ll also have your pick of the best delivery dates. Many florists don’t deliver on Sundays, so you’ll want to schedule for Saturday, May 10, to ensure her blooms arrive on time.

Does Amazon do flower delivery?

Yes! You can find select Mother’s Day flower delivery options, like editor-tested Benchmark Bouquets, on Amazon.

Do you tip on flower delivery?

There’s no expectation for a recipient to tip on flower delivery—especially if the blooms arrive in a box like any other package. That said, if hand-delivered by a local florist, it’s always a welcome option.
