Colour is the easiest way to make
flowers for a newborn feel personal. Pink roses, peonies and spray roses are a classic choice for a baby girl. White and blue blooms, such as hydrangeas, suit a baby boy. Cream, white and soft yellow work for any baby. Because mum and baby will spend a lot of time close to the flowers, we recommend lightly scented blooms and avoiding strongly scented lilies. A
flower box is the most practical choice for new parents: it needs no vase and very little care.
