This is the Conversation Forum for Anniversaries - An Excuse to Celebrate << Surprises Ideas for 50th? >> Subject: Flower warnings Posted Jan 23, 2003 by Mikey the Humming Mouse - A3938628 Learn More About the Edited Guide!   Posting 1 If you are going to give flowers as an anniversary present (or as a Valentine's or Birthday, or any other kind of present intended to be romantic), it is especially important to check and make sure that the flowers truly are fresh. Getting a dozen roses for your first anniversary is lovely, but it can be a bit of a bad omen if they're all dead and withered by the next morning....

If your partner gets chronic hay fever ask the florist for flowers with a low pollen count and whatever you do don’t give them lilies!

Fantasy flowers are made from uninflated latex balloons and can come in a wide range of sizes, colours, and designs. They will last a long time and no hayfever.
