Heart Shaped Flowers & Gifts FAQs

What Are Heart-Shaped Flowers Called?

Lamprocapnos spectabilis, sometimes called dicentra spectabilis or the bleeding heart flower, is a unique plant with heart-shaped flowers hanging from a long stem. The flowers consist of two symmetrical petals (usually pink or fuchsia) that join to form a point at the end furthest from the stem. Small white petals typically emerge from this lower point in a droplet formation. This shape and color combination give the appearance of many small heart-shaped petals hanging in a row. A small bleeding heart plant adds a delicate and romantic touch to any bouquet. Their unique, rose-colored heart design and densely clustered arching stems also make them a great way to accent an arrangement of flowers for a girlfriend or significant other.

What Flowers Look Like Hearts?

The bleeding heart is the only plant that actually blooms heart-shaped flowers, but there are a variety of other plants with heart-shaped leaves or petals. The most common of these is the anthurium plant. Anthurium are tropical heart-shaped plants with red leaves sometimes used in weddings or for summer flower arrangements. Like the poinsettia, the anthurium’s red heart-shaped “petals” are actually thick, waxy leaves, making for a brighter, more vibrant heart design than the delicate flowers of the bleeding heart plant.

What’s the Most Popular Heart-Shaped Flower?

The bleeding heart is the most popular heart-shaped flower, with its symmetrical pink petals hanging like a row of heart pendants from the branch. However, there are other popular flower options if you’re looking for something to convey romantic love or appreciation. Roses are the most traditional love flowers, in part for their radiant red and pink pigments and luscious fragrance, but some roses also have a more natural heart shape while blooming. For a fun surprise for that someone special in your life, have an assortment of their favorite flowers arranged in a heart shape delivered straight to their home or office. A heart-shaped roses bouquet always makes for stunning Valentine’s day flowers.

Are Heart Flowers Romantic?

Nothing says romance quite like flowers, but if you’re looking to up the ante, then why not consider sending heart-shaped flowers directly to your special someone’s door to make your romantic moment even more memorable! Regardless of whether you’re new to your relationship or you’ve been married for years, surprising your love with a heart flower bouquet for a special occasion or a spontaneous “just because” moment will be sure to impress.

Are Heart-Shaped Flower Bouquets Only For Couples?

While heart flowers are a great choice for romance and couples, they are also incredibly versatile and can be the perfect way to show your love to anyone in your life. They’re a great present on occasions such as Mother’s Day, birthdays, or family anniversaries. Go for a bleeding heart plant with heart-shaped flowers instead of a bouquet to celebrate a close family member’s anniversary or to mark an engagement or wedding. The couples will treasure the bleeding heart plant for years.

When Is The Best Time To Send Heart-Shaped Flowers?
