What Your Valentine’s Day Flowers Say About You

Valentine's Day is Saturday. If you don't want your loved one to be as cold as the temperatures on Saturday then plan ahead. That's right, do something different this year. If it's flowers that you have in mind, you want to send the right message.

It could be the difference between "oh yeah" and "oh no." So here's my help.

'Oh yeah!' - Flowers to send and what it means.

• Red tulips: Declaration of love
• Dalila: Elegance/Dignity
• Blue violet: Faithfulness 
• Roses: Love (or these are the flowers I think you want)

'Oh no' - Here are flowers you may want to avoid (unless this is what you really want to say).

• Daffodil: Uncertainty 
• White carnation: Disdain 
• Mint: Suspicion 
• Lavender: Mistrust  
• Black Poppy: Hatred or Farewell 
• Dead Flowers: Whoops, I forgot I had these.

Be on the safe side and get her a gift certificate from a floral shop. That says, "I took the time to go to a flower place but I know I'm going to get the wrong kind of flowers for you."

So Happy Valentine's Day and good luck!
