There is no definitive rule about the best flower bouquet for retirement, but many decent options are available. Of course, you’ll also want to consider your recipient’s favourite bloom or colour.

With that in mind, here is a short list of retirement flowers that can suit your recipient:

• Sunflowers: these have been popular the world over. They represent life and longevity with the Native Americans and good fortune/good luck in Asian cultures. The yellow flowers represent rebirth, making them an appropriate gift for new retirees.
• Chrysanthemums: also referred to as mums, these beautiful flowers symbolise long-lasting friendships. They also represent optimistic feelings. If your recipient is a close family member or friend, mums are an excellent choice.
• Freesia: a more out-of-the-box choice that some may appreciate, freesia represents trust and renewal. They compliment other flowers in a retirement bouquet well.
• Daffodils, calla lilies, daisies: a popular choice in a retirement flower bouquet. When these popular flowers bloom, they represent new beginnings, making them the classic choice for people entering retirement.
