Why Flowers Are Always a Win on Mother’s Day

A Timeless Tradition


Gifting flowers for Mother’s Day has stood the test of time. From carnations to chrysanthemums, it’s a gesture that’s always been rooted in appreciation. At Herbivore, we like to elevate this tradition with a fresh, modern take—think lush seasonal bouquets, textured native arrangements, and plenty of Melbourne flair.


They’re Personal (Without Being Complicated)


Flowers have a magical way of saying “I love you”, “thank you”, and “you mean the world to me”—without needing the perfect words. Plus, we make it easy. Whether you’re nearby or halfway across the country, you can send Mum something gorgeous with just a few clicks.

Our Top Picks for Mother’s Day Flowers


Not sure what to choose? Here are some of our favourite blooms for Mother’s Day this year, all available through Herbivore’s Melbourne flower delivery service:


Seasonal Pastels
Soft pinks, lilacs, peaches and whites—our pastel bouquets are gentle, elegant, and full of love. They’re our most popular pick for mums who love the classics with a modern twist


Native Beauties
For something long-lasting and uniquely Australian, our native bunches are a standout. Think banksias, proteas, and eucalyptus, styled in our signature Herbivore way—textural, wild, and bold.
