What Flowers to Send in November: Occasions & Seasonal Picks

November bouquet with chrysanthemums, dahlias, and blush-toned roses on a neutral background in soft natural light.

November is a month of slowing down. It’s when routines soften, homes fill with candlelight, and gratitude takes center stage. It’s also one of our favorite times to send flowers — because seasonal blooms bring a touch of joy, warmth, and connection during the coziest part of the year.

Here’s what to send (and why) when you’re gifting flowers this November.

November Birthdays: Chrysanthemums in Full Glory

November’s official birth flower is the chrysanthemum, and we’re here for it.

Available in rich fall tones like burnt orange, burgundy, gold, and soft blush, mums are bold, long-lasting, and packed with meaning.

Chrysanthemum symbolism:

  • Loyalty and love
  • Longevity and joy
  • A beautiful life

We love pairing chrysanthemums with roses, eucalyptus, and textural fillers like thistle or ruscus for birthday bouquets that feel abundant and intentional.

Thanksgiving Gifts & Host Bouquets

Whether you’re hosting or attending, flowers are one of the most thoughtful things you can bring to a fall table.

What to choose:

  • Warm-toned roses
  • Bronze or cream mums
  • Dahlias or dried amaranthus
  • Preserved foliage for structure and texture

How to gift it:

Wrapped in kraft paper for casual drop-offs, or arranged in a vase for a showstopping table centerpiece.

Just-Because Fall Arrangements

Not every bouquet needs a holiday. November is a great month to say:

  • “Thinking of you”
  • “Here’s something beautiful for your week”
  • “Thanks for always showing up”

Our favorite just-because November flowers:

  • Designer’s choice in amber, mauve, and clay tones
  • Mini bouquets with dahlias and lisianthus
  • Dried flower mixes for long-lasting decor

End-of-Year Gratitude Gifts (Corporate + Personal)

As the year winds down, now’s the time to show appreciation — for clients, coworkers, and anyone who made your year a little better.

Send:

  • A neutral-toned bouquet with preserved and fresh elements
  • A classic rose mix with added eucalyptus
  • A paired set: flowers + candle or handwritten card

Available with next-day delivery across the Bay Area or pickup in Concord.

Sympathy & Soft Gestures

If someone’s navigating a hard season, November is a beautiful time to send a little light.

Soft, elegant arrangements in:

  • Ivory and blush
  • Dusty lavender and sage
  • Creamy neutrals with fall foliage accents

We handwrite your card with care — always.
