Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Tesco is launching Inspiration Stations across its network of stores for stressed sons and daughters hoping to find the perfect gift for their mums.

Tesco Head Florist, Michelle Buck, gives her top tips on how to purchase the perfect floral gift this Mother’s Day.

For the adventurous mum:

1. Fine flowers – Tesco’s finest* Rose Surprise, £30 is the perfect flower choice for any daring mum, filled with Roses, Hydrangeas and Lilies which signify love and Bouvardia which symbolise enthusiasm – this beautiful bouquet is the perfect choice to accompany a day out with mum.

For the mum you’re never sure what to buy:

2. Playing it safe – Flowers are always a safe bet as they can brighten a room instantly. The Seasonal Jug, £12 from Tesco’s Mother’s Day range contains cerise, white and pink stocks, which represent happiness and contentment. The jug also means mum can fill it with flowers again and again.

For the mum who constantly changes her mind:

3. Bouquets – Choose a bouquet that includes flowers which reflect your mum’s personality and the emotions you feel e.g. wanting to indulge her. Spoil her with Tesco’s Pretty in Pink bouquet, £20 which is full of Hydrangeas and vibrant pink Geberas which symbolise cheerfulness or the floral Bird Cage, £12 which include Dianthus, which represent admiration and love.

For the mum who deserves relaxation:

4. Keep flowers fresh – Make sure the blooms you treat your to mum last. If you do not have suitable flower food, a teaspoon of sugar in the water will keep flowers fresher for longer.

For the mum who likes something different:

5. Mix it up – Why not pick a bunch of flowers that’s a little bit unusual? The Blue Posy, £25 from Tesco brings together deep midnight blues, contrasted with vibrant yellows and white foliage. Presented beautifully in a milk churn, they are a stunning and seasonal collection of flowers and a great gift to say thank you to your lovely mum this Mother’s Day.

The Blue Posy is available to purchase instore and online at Tesco.com. All other Mother’s Day bouquets are available to purchase instore ahead of Mothering Sunday.
