What Flowers Should I Give my Spouse on our Anniversary?

Your anniversary is coming up and you want to right flower to get your spouse. Read this and you’re all set.

Here at Hidden Botanics a lot of the dried floral arrangements we do are for weddings, be they bouquets, flower crowns, or something else entirely. We cater to any needs a bride may have on her special day.

However, the wedding day is not the last opportunity to display your love for your partner with flowers! The most obvious anniversary associations are those we are all familiar with: the 1st is paper, the 10th is tin, 15th is crystal, all the way up to 50th being gold, and 60th being your diamond anniversary. However, these aren’t all there is to it. Each anniversary also has a flower (or sometimes multiple flowers) attached to it. Give your partner the romantic gift they deserve by giving them the flower that commemorates your years together.

Many of the flowers below are available as part of Hidden Botanics dried or artificial floral arrangements, browse our stop and see if anything perfect for your partner (or yourself, we won’t tell) catches your eye!
