Mother's Day is on Sunday, 10 May 2026: the perfect day to show your mother, mother-in-law, grandmother or other special woman in your life how much she means to you! What better way to spoil her than with a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers from the auction? We certainly can't. But which flowers should you choose for that special woman in your life? Read on for our list of the most special flowers for Mother's Day!

1. Roses: Love in every petal

Is there a more romantic gift than a bouquet of beautiful roses? We don't think so! With their velvety petals and rich fragrance, roses have symbolised love and appreciation for centuries. Choose warm colours such as soft pink, coral red or creamy white for a bouquet that will melt her heart.

Our tip: surprise her with a bouquet in her favourite colour and include a personal card explaining exactly why she's the best mum!

2. Peonies: the flowers of the moment!

How fortunate that Mother's Day coincides with the peak of peony season! With their full, rounded shape and subtle fragrance, these spectacular flowers are the epitome of pampering — perfect for a day dedicated to celebrating motherly love. Our florists create beautiful bouquets with these springtime classics, which come in various shades of pink, white and red.

As your mother's peonies slowly open from bud to full bloom, she will be treated to a gift that keeps on giving. An unforgettable gift, time and time again!

3. Lilies: elegant and refined

Want to wow someone with a bouquet that fills the room with a delightful fragrance? Then lilies are the perfect choice! Their graceful shape and enchanting scent make these flowers a real eye-catcher. Whether you choose the striking Stargazer with its pink spots or the pure white Longiflorum, lilies show how special and unique your mother is to you.

Did you know that each opened bud on a lily stem represents a year of happiness? So when you give lilies, you're giving more than just a bouquet of flowers — you're giving a symbol of pure love.

4. Tulips: love in a cheerful package

At De Duinroos, we champion Dutch craftsmanship, and what could be more Dutch than the tulip? This versatile flower comes in so many colours and varieties that you can always create a bouquet that's perfect for your mother. From classic red to striking purple and from subtly striped to spectacular fringed blooms, tulips will always bring a smile to her face.

For a personal touch, choose a mixed tulip bouquet in her favourite colours combined with fresh greenery!

5. Sunflowers: Bring sunshine into your home

Some mothers are like the sun: they radiate warmth and brighten up any room. For these mothers, sunflowers are the obvious choice. With their bold yellow petals and impressive size, they will bring sunshine into your home, just like your mother does.

We love combining sunflowers with blue flowers such as cornflowers or delphiniums to create a vibrant contrast that heralds summer. The perfect bouquet for the mother who always brings sunshine into your life!

6. Orchids: perfect for a mother who deserves the very best

Want to really go all out? Then choose the queen of flowers: the orchid. With their exotic appearance and long vase life, they are the ultimate pampering gift. The best part? Your mother can enjoy these special flowers for weeks! As well as bouquets containing orchids, we also offer orchids as potted plants: a gift she'll enjoy for years to come!

7. Gerbera: Even happier and more cheerful!

Does your mother always see the positive side of things and bring a smile to everyone's face? Then gerbera daisies are the perfect flowers for her! With their striking shape and vibrant colours, these cheerful flowers bring joy to everyone. Here at De Duinroos, we have gerbera in every colour you could possibly want: from soft pink to fiery orange, and from snowy white to deep purple.

Did you know that the gerbera symbolises innocent joy? It's a flower that everyone loves! If you ask a child to draw a flower, chances are their drawing will strongly resemble a gerbera. It's a sweet and cheerful flower that your mother is sure to love too!

8. Spring Bouquet: An ode to fertility

What could be more beautiful than surprising your mother with a lavish bouquet of the most beautiful spring flowers? At this time of year, our specially composed bouquets feature all the stars of spring, including colourful tulips, fragrant daffodils, graceful ranunculus and elegant anemones. All spring arrangements are carefully crafted by our professional florists.

Did you know that spring flowers are renowned for their vibrant colours and invigorating scents? By giving a seasonal bouquet, you'll be giving not only beautiful flowers, but also a generous dose of joy and freshness that will instantly brighten her home! It's the perfect tribute to the woman who is always there for everyone.
