Mum’s the word: beautiful flowers for beautiful people

At Fleur by DK, we’re not just florists in Christchurch; we’re storytellers, helping our clients articulate their feelings and emotions through the timeless language of flowers. Our expertise in floral design and our commitment to quality ensure that every bouquet we create is a work of art, filled with meaning and emotion. Giving flowers is a simple gesture that speaks volumes, bridging the gap between cultures and generations. In a world that’s rapidly changing, the tradition of giving flowers on Mother’s Day has endured as a classic way to demonstrate love and appreciation, and wholly deserves the very best of our creative team’s skills. We invite you to continue this beautiful tradition with us. Whether you’re looking for classic elegance, contemporary sophistication, or a flower arrangement bespoke and personal, our Christchurch florists at Fleur by DK are here to help you express your love and gratitude in the most exquisite way possible to the incredible women in your life. The history behind Mother’s Day flowers in Christchurch The tradition of giving flowers on Mother’s Day has deep historical roots. In ancient times, the Greeks and Romans dedicated floral offerings to goddesses associated with motherhood. The custom evolved into a religious observance into ‘Mothering Sunday’ where families would return to their “mother church” and present flowers to their own mothers as a token of love. The modern Mother’s Day of today was popularised by Anna Jarvis in the early 20th century. Her choice of flower - the carnation - became the emblem of a mother’s undying love. Since then, flowers have remained at the heart of Mother’s Day celebrations worldwide, symbolising gratitude, admiration, and devotion. 

Petals with purpose: creating soulful flower designs

Flowers have an extraordinary ability to evoke emotion. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, expressing sympathy, or simply brightening someone's day, a beautiful bouquet of flowers speaks volumes. At Fleur by DK, our award-winning florists based in the heart of Merivale in Christchurch, we believe in the magic of flowers. Our displays and flower arrangements are testament to the transformative power of nature's artistry, bringing joy and connection to every occasion with vibrant colours and exquisite designs that leave a lasting impression. Receiving flowers is always a pleasure, but how can you make a flower delivery feel extraordinary for the recipient? At Fleur by DK our flower design philosophy is shaped by storytelling – every flower bouquet representing a heartfelt message. We celebrate that flowers mark life’s most significant moments. Discover flowers to suit the recipient’s personality and preferences A key element in successfully gifting flowers lies in recognising the recipient's distinct personality and preferences. Before you order flowers online or visit Fleur by DK’s Merivale flower shop, think about the intended message you are conveying through the language of flowers. Do they have a favourite flower that brings them joy? Is there significance for them associated with a specific flower? What’s their personal style? Are they captivated by bold, vibrant hues , or do they lean towards more subtle and muted shades? People tend to exclusively focus on the colours for a flower delivery, but texture also plays a vital role in conveying sentiments and personalising a flower arrangement. Smooth, sleek blooms like tulips and calla lilies offer a modern elegance, whereas the ruffled petals of peonies or daisies bring a more romantic and whimsical feel. Combining various textures in arrangements , such as the contrast of soft roses with spiky thistles, adds depth and interest to the arrangement. Understanding these nuances allows you to select a flower arrangement that resonates with their individual style but also creates a memorable connection through the language of flowers and makes the gesture more meaningful.
