Father’s Day is more than a date on the calendar—it’s a heartfelt reminder to honor the quiet strength, sacrifices, and love of the father figures who’ve shaped our lives. While gadgets and tools are classic go-to gifts, this year, why not celebrate Dad with something unexpected yet deeply meaningful: flowers.
Yes—flowers for Father’s Day.
Not sure if flowers are a good gift for Dad? You’re not alone. But just like no two dads are alike, not all blooms are soft and frilly. Many flowers symbolize strength, gratitude, resilience, and integrity—perfect traits to celebrate this Father’s Day.
1. Orchids: For the Dad Who Embodies Quiet Strength
Orchids are more than just a pretty plant—they represent grace, strength, and enduring love. Their strong stems and long-lasting blooms make them a fitting tribute to dads who stand tall through life’s challenges. The Phalaenopsis variety, with its clean lines and soft petals, exudes sophistication and quiet power. For something more dramatic, the Cymbidium orchid adds a tropical touch while maintaining elegance.
These blooms are especially well-loved in Singapore, where orchids are a national icon. Gifting an orchid arrangement feels rooted in local pride while still being unique and personal. It’s a way to honour a dad who may not speak much but always shows up.
2. Sunflowers: For the Warm, Outgoing Dad
Sunflowers are the life of the party—just like that dad who’s always cracking jokes or showing up with food in hand. These cheerful, sun-soaked blooms are a symbol of loyalty, positivity, and admiration. Their bold yellow petals radiate happiness and energy, making them a natural choice for dads who lift everyone’s spirits.
Whether you’re celebrating with a family brunch or a cosy dinner at home, a bouquet of sunflowers sets the tone. It’s a loud and proud way of saying: “Thanks for being our sunshine, always.”
Looking to brighten up Dad’s space? Choose one of our fresh flower bouquets that centre on sunflowers. Their large blooms and vibrant tones stand beautifully on their own or mixed with greens for a more balanced feel.
3. Carnations: For the Steadfast, Traditional Dad
If your father is the quiet provider, the one who leads by example and upholds old-school values, carnations are a fitting tribute. While often associated with Mother's Day, carnations—especially in deep red or pristine white—symbolise love, admiration, and pure dedication. They’re long-lasting and deeply rooted in meaning, just like the lessons he’s passed on.
Red carnations are perfect if you want to express respect and strength, while white carnations speak of pure, unconditional love. Their ruffled texture adds dimension to any bouquet, giving it volume without being too flashy.
Pair them with greens or other neutrals for a masculine, timeless arrangement. Our occasion bouquets often feature carnations as foundational blooms—they're affordable, elegant, and full of heart.
4. Hydrangeas: For the Dad Who Listens and Understands
Hydrangeas may look delicate, but they’re emotionally rich in symbolism. These blooms represent gratitude, heartfelt emotion, and deep understanding. They’re perfect for that dad who always lends a listening ear, who seems to know what you need before you even ask.
In soft shades of blue, purple, or white, hydrangeas bring a gentle beauty to any arrangement without feeling overly feminine. Their fullness also adds a luxurious touch—ideal if you're gifting flowers as a centrepiece or decorative piece.
If your dad is the emotionally intelligent type—calm, kind, and intuitive—this flower honours that quiet strength. Consider our signature floral wraps that pair hydrangeas with clean greenery for a message that’s deeply felt without saying too much.
5. Eucalyptus: For the Calm, Grounded Dad
Eucalyptus might not be a flower, but it deserves a spot on this list. Known for its silvery leaves and clean, herbal scent, eucalyptus symbolises healing, clarity, and peace. It’s ideal for dads who are steady, grounded, and bring calm wherever they go—think of him as your in-house therapist, handyman, and meditation guide rolled into one.
This foliage adds structure and balance to floral arrangements, giving them a natural, minimalist aesthetic. Its cooling tones also give a masculine edge to any bouquet, especially when paired with neutral florals or dried elements.
You’ll often find eucalyptus in our preserved arrangements—it keeps well and looks chic for months. It’s a beautiful way to say, “Thanks for being my rock.”
6. Roses: For the Dad Who Deserves Classic Appreciation
Roses aren’t just for romance—they’re a universal symbol of appreciation. When chosen in the right colours, they become a heartfelt tribute to fatherhood. White roses stand for reverence and respect, while yellow roses convey friendship, joy, and warmth. Even peach roses, with their gentle hue, express gratitude and sincerity.
For a dad who’s always been a strong, reliable presence in your life, a bouquet of non-red roses can be a surprisingly emotional gift. It’s also great for expressing your appreciation if words don’t come easily—let the flowers speak for you.
At Windflower Florist, we’ve curated several Father’s Day-appropriate rose bouquets that tone down the romance and turn up the sentiment. It’s a classic flower—just reimagined for the man who’s always been there.
7. Daisies: For the Cheerful, Supportive Dad
Daisies may appear simple at first glance, but their enduring charm lies in their symbolism of loyalty, innocence, and steady support—just like many father figures who quietly show up, day in and day out. These unassuming blooms are perfect for dads who have a warm, approachable nature and always bring a sense of calm and comfort to those around them.
Whether you choose classic white daisies or opt for brighter Gerbera varieties, they add a touch of sincerity and joy to any Father’s Day bouquet. Their cheerful appearance suits the ever-reliable, always-encouraging dad who lifts your spirits without needing the spotlight. A fresh arrangement with daisies is a heartfelt way to honour his quiet strength and positive presence.
8. Lilies: For the Wise, Reflective Dad
Lilies are timeless flowers that symbolise wisdom, integrity, and deep respect—making them a fitting tribute to dads who lead with thoughtfulness and moral grounding. Their clean lines and strong presence evoke a calm dignity, ideal for father figures who are more introspective, measured, or spiritual.
Available in a range of colours, from pure white to deep orange and vibrant yellow, lilies can be tailored to reflect your dad’s personality and your relationship. When paired with soft greens or structured foliage, they create an elegant, masculine arrangement that feels both modern and meaningful. A bouquet with lilies is a refined way to say, “Thank you for your guidance and strength.”
