What Kind of Flowers Do You Get Dad? (Yes, Really.)

Wednesday, June 4, 2025





Let’s face it—when you think of Father’s Day, flowers probably aren’t the first thing on your list. You might picture BBQ gear, golf stuff, or maybe a new set of tools. But here’s the thing: flowers can actually be an amazing gift for Dad. And no, we’re not talking about delicate roses or pastel pinks (unless that’s his thing—go for it).

We’re talking about bold, earthy, modern arrangements. Clean lines, unique textures, and a look that feels like him. If Mother’s Day gets all the floral attention, we’re here to say: let’s give Dad his moment, too.

Why Give Flowers on Father’s Day?

Think about what flowers really do. They brighten a space. They say, “I’m thinking of you.” They celebrate a moment. And if there’s ever a time to celebrate Dad, it’s now.

Maybe he’s not the type to make a big fuss, but a fresh arrangement from your local Edmonton florist is a simple, thoughtful way to show you care. Flowers are personal. They’re unexpected. And sometimes, they’re exactly the thing that makes someone smile.


What Kind of Flowers Do Dads Like?

Great question. At The Lavender House, we always say: choose flowers that match the person, not the occasion.

For Father’s Day, we love putting together arrangements that lean into natural tones, strong shapes, and a little bit of edge. Think rich greenery, sculptural branches, tropical blooms, and deep, moody colours. It’s less about the fluff and more about the vibe.

Want to make it even more personal? Add something he’ll love—a favourite snack, a candle for his home office, or even a beer glass tucked into the arrangement. Yup, we’ve done that.

Great Flower Pairings for Father's Day

If you’re not sure where to start, here are a few floral elements that work well for modern Father’s Day designs:

Protea

Strong, sculptural, and seriously cool

Tropical Leaves

Monstera, palms, or bird of paradise add that bold, structured look

Eucalyptus or Olive Branches

Earthy, masculine, and smell amazing

Sunflowers or Orange Gerberas

Bright but not overly delicate

Thistle or Craspedia (Billy Balls)

Fun, textural elements that stand out


We’ll help you mix and match blooms that feel unique, never boring. That’s what sets us apart as a go-to flower shop in Edmonton.


Flowers for Every Kind of Dad

There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to Father’s Day. And the same goes for flowers. Whether your dad is outdoorsy, stylish, laid-back, or somewhere in between, there’s a floral design that fits.

The Nature-Loving Dad

For the dad who’s always in the garden or hiking a trail, a bouquet with wild greens, mossy textures, and woodsy tones feels right at home.

The Minimalist Dad

Keep it clean and simple with white blooms, structured greenery, and a sleek vase he’ll actually want to keep.

The Sentimental Dad

Add a handwritten note, a photo tucked into the bouquet, or a flower that holds personal meaning. Small touches make a big impact.





Edmonton Flower Delivery for Father’s Day

Not in town? No worries. We offer flowers Edmonton delivery for Father’s Day—so even if you can’t be there in person, you can still send something that makes Dad feel seen and appreciated.

Just make sure to place your order a little early. Father’s Day is Sunday, June [insert date], and weekends are always busy at our Edmonton florist studio.

We’ve also got pick-up available at our shop if you want to swing by and grab something fresh on the way to your family gathering.

Real Talk: He’ll Probably Be Surprised

That’s the best part.

Most dads don’t expect flowers, and that’s what makes the gesture so memorable. It’s thoughtful. It’s a little unexpected. And it shows that you went out of your way to choose something different.

At The Lavender House, we’ve helped so many families surprise their dads with floral arrangements that truly reflect who they are. We’d love to help you do the same.

Ready to Gift Dad Something Different This Year?

Let us help you create a floral arrangement that’s totally him—bold, personal, and full of heart.
