So you’d like to send flowers to the love of your life this Valentine’s Day. Great idea – you know she loves them.

But here’s the secret to making an unforgettable impact – It’s all in the delivery.

Here are some tips to help put your Valentine flowers on steroids:

1. First of all, Valentine’s Day falls on Saturday this year. Do not send flowers to her at home. Send them to her at work or any other place where her friends and coworkers can see them delivered to her.
2. Sending Valentine flowers to your wife? Be romantic. Send her the same flowers she carried down the aisle on your wedding day. If you’re not sure what those flowers were (or don’t remember), find a picture and bring it with you to the florist. Make sure you mention something about why you chose those flowers on the enclosure card. She’ll love your thoughtfulness.
3. Want to score some major points? Send two bouquets, one to your Valentine, and a second bouquet to her mother. Thank her mom for bringing the love of your life into the world. Don’t forget the first point – deliver Mom’s flowers to work as well, or wherever others will see them.
4. I usually never recommend sending potted plants for Valentine’s day, but if your Valentine is a gardener, it’s OK. She’ll appreciate her flowers even if the roots are still attached.

Remember, it’s not the flowers you send, but the impact they deliver!
