Celebrities And Their Favorite Flower Finds

Copyright © 2007-2008 Wesley Berry, AAF


While we all have our own choices of favorite flowers, the top picks for the latest flower trends and bouquets take more than a trip to the local florist. Celebrities and the fortunately famous spend a considerable amount of time meeting with florists and designers to find the best fit for an upcoming event. From exotic flower bouquets to understated elegant picks, there is no short supply of choice for finding the right mix. Creating a unique bouquet can be cause for exploration itself; whether you are celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or just need some cheering up. Tracking down your favorite flower might take some research; or just some inspiration!

While Britney Spears affirms that white roses are her favorite flower of choice, other stars such as Angelina Jolie are intent on tracking down the classic orchid. White roses are considered to be a sign of courage, and the rose is the provincial flower of Yorkshire in England. Signifying elegance and mystery, the white rose grown is a luxury item that few people can afford.

Angelina Jolie's pick for the orchid is a common one, and many people choose this exotic-looking flower for celebrations and special occasions. Orchids have a distinct bloom and are available in a variety of colors and forms. They may have three to four large petals and extra long stems that require special vases. Orchids are grown in different tropical areas around the world, and contain more species than any other types of plants. Orchids are commonly found in two main forms, where they are either monopodial or sympodial. Monopodial orchids have long stems that grow indefinitely, while the sympodial orchids are known to have limited growth but a variety of colors. They are considered to be one of the world's most beautiful flowers.

Drew Barrymore is often seen wearing a sunflower or daisy in her hair, and this fits with her playful and young personality and style. While Drew Barrymore picks many youthful looks and characters on screen, her personality still shins through with her love for daffodils, sunflowers, and daisies. Sunflowers are native to American soil, and are famous for their oversized flowering head and striking yellow color. The flowers grow best in sunlight and are an attractive choice for spring and summer. The sunflower is often considered a symbol of green ideology, offering peace and tranquility. In addition, it is the symbol of the Vegan Society.



Daisies are a Eurasian plant, and tend to grow in standard lawns and gardens with little cultivation. Daisies are not always yellow and white in color; variations include a large assortment of pinks, magentas, orange, and even purple. As part of a bouquet or gift basket, they can be a vibrant addition to the display.

Daffodils are a popular springtime flower in Europe, and continue to pop up in the U.S. during the early spring season. Daffodils are famous for their cheerful yellow and white flower heads, and are often sent to people as a 'Get Well' gift or 'Thank You' token of appreciation.

While Paris Hilton proudly proclaims that pink is her color of choice, it's easy to understand why pink carnations and pink roses might be her favorite flowers. Pink carnations were also known as 'Jove's Flower' by ancient Rome as they were dedicated to the god, Jove. In Korea, pink carnations are a symbol of gratitude towards parents, and in other areas of the world the carnation is shared as a symbol of admiration, love, and gratitude as well. Pink roses symbolize young love and romance, and are often shared at the beginning of a relationship. Since pink is also considered a feminine color, it can also connote grace, gentleness, happiness, and joy.

Even though the world knows that Oprah Winfrey spends a lot of time giving free makeovers and parties to guests on her show, she still makes time to stop and smell the roses! Her shows have featured countless ingenious designs and bouquets, including assortments of wild orchids, stunning combinations of roses, eye-catching baskets filled with magnolias, and many more. The TV host enjoys partnering up with famous florists for themed events around the world, and her top picks have included more than the average assortment.

Every celebrity picks a set of flowers most suited to their personality and the occasion. Your choice in flower bouquets and selections becomes easier with a little research, and often a quick trip to your local florist will spring ideas and trends that you can use to build your own distinct flower bouquets.
