Rethink the red roses this Valentine’s and instead make a statement with stunning blooms such as orchids, hellebores and amaryllis. Here, four top luxury floral designers share their favourites

Keep it understated and simple
“If you prefer fewer frills but still want to show you care, these beautiful amaryllis flowers will last for ages,” says luxury florist Elizabeth Marsh. “They will also remind them of you every time they walk in the room.” Black amaryllis bulb in a jar, £29.85 (not including delivery) from Elizabeth Marsh Floral Design

Try something a little alternative
Moyses Stevens suggests branching out from red roses and “opting for elegant orchids in vibrant colours to really make an impression on that special someone.” Besties, £105 from Moyses Stevens

Choose spring flowers
“Avoid red roses altogether,” says leading floral designer Nicky Llewellyn. “Instead try hyacinths, narcissi, anemones, tulips, hellebores and ranunculus.” POA from Nicky Llewellyn Flowers
