What are the best flowers for spring?

Spring is finally here, and with it comes longer days, warmer weather, and nature bursting back into life. What better way to celebrate the season of renewal than with a bouquet of fresh, vibrant flowers? Whether you’re looking for the perfect gift, wedding flowers, or a cheerful arrangement for your home, spring offers an abundance of stunning blooms of the best flowers.

At Hosanna Floral, we love helping our customers in Montrose, Ridgway, Ouray, Telluride, Gunnison, and Crested Butte pick the best seasonal flowers to brighten their homes and special occasions. In this guide, we’ll share the best spring flowers, their meanings, and how to care for them so you can enjoy their beauty for as long as possible!

Why Spring Flowers Are So Special

Spring is the season of fresh starts, and flowers represent that beautifully. After months of cold weather, nature awakens with colorful blooms, fresh scents, and lush greenery. Whether you're celebrating a wedding, Mother's Day, Easter, or a spring birthday, there's a perfect flower for every occasion.

Why choose spring flowers?
They are fresher and longer-lasting than out-of-season flowers.
They are often more affordable because they’re naturally in bloom.
They bring vibrant colors and uplifting scents into your home.

One of our favorite parts of spring at Hosanna Floral is seeing the joy on our customers’ faces when they receive a fresh bouquet of tulips, daffodils, and peonies. There's something magical about welcoming spring with flowers!

The Best Spring Flowers to Choose From

Spring is the perfect time to enjoy a wide variety of fresh flowers that aren't always available year-round. Here are some of our top picks:

Tulips – A Springtime Classic

Tulips are one of the most iconic spring flowers, symbolizing love and new beginnings. Available in a rainbow of colors, tulips can suit any occasion:

Yellow Tulips – Perfect for friendship and happiness.
Pink Tulips – Represent admiration and affection.
Red Tulips – A bold expression of love.

Best for: Mother’s Day, Easter celebrations, spring weddings, and birthday bouquets.

A customer from Ouray recently told us how tulips brightened her entire home for Easter! She placed a bouquet in her entryway, and every guest who walked in commented on how fresh and vibrant they looked.

Daffodils – The First Sign of Spring

Daffodils symbolize renewal and happiness, making them one of the best flowers to welcome spring. Their bright yellow petals bring a burst of sunshine into any room!

Best for: Spring birthdays, Easter centerpieces, and seasonal bouquets.

Fun Fact: In many cultures, daffodils are believed to bring good luck and prosperity—so they make a wonderful gift!

Cherry Blossoms – Delicate & Elegant

Cherry blossoms symbolize beauty, renewal, and the fleeting nature of life. While they don’t last long, their soft pink petals and subtle fragrance make them a beautiful addition to floral arrangements.

Best for: Romantic gifts, spring weddings, and elegant floral décor.

One of our brides in Telluride requested a cherry blossom bouquet for her wedding, and the result was breathtaking. Combined with roses and hydrangeas, it created a soft, dreamy aesthetic perfect for a springtime ceremony.

Hyacinths – Fragrant & Colorful

Hyacinths add a pop of color and an intoxicating scent to any bouquet. Available in purple, pink, white, and blue, they symbolize peace, joy, and sincerity.

Best for: Home décor, birthday gifts, and "thinking of you" bouquets.

Pro Tip: Hyacinths have a strong fragrance, so if you’re placing them indoors, keep them in a well-ventilated area to avoid overpowering smaller rooms.

Ranunculus – Elegant & Whimsical

With their delicate, layered petals, ranunculus flowers bring a soft, romantic touch to any arrangement. They are popular in wedding bouquets and look stunning in spring floral centerpieces.

Best for: Wedding bouquets, anniversary gifts, and luxury floral arrangements.

One of our customers from Gunnison recently ordered a ranunculus bouquet mixed with tulips and hydrangeas for her engagement party, and it was absolutely stunning!

How to Care for Spring Flowers & Make Them Last Longer

Nothing is worse than wilting flowers too soon. Here’s how to keep your spring bouquets fresh for as long as possible:

Trim the Stems: Cut each stem at a 45-degree angle before placing it in a vase.
Change Water Regularly: Replace the water every 2 days to prevent bacteria growth.
Keep Away from Heat & Sunlight: Avoid placing flowers in direct sunlight or near heating vents.
Use Flower Food: Add the provided floral preservative or a DIY mix of sugar, lemon juice, and a drop of bleach to the water.
