Forget Singles Awareness Day. This year, celebrate Galentine’s Day, the holiday showing how much you love and appreciate your gal pals. Many celebrate this day with their partners (and cliché candlelight dinners), but why not celebrate with close gal pals instead? Whether single or not, girlfriends are crucial in life. They pick you up when you’re down, and they play a vital role in your life. Show your friends you care this Galentine’s Day with a flower—or two—that represents exactly what you love about them.

Calla Lily:

These soft, petite flowers represent a beautiful and impassioned friend. She wields her words with finesse and tends to make an impact.

Carnation:

There’s always one friend who has extremely inspiring aspirations, and this flower’s for her. Its sturdiness signifies a friend who dreams and achieves her goals—no matter what.

Daisy:

Laughing—it’s one of the most infectious forms of communication. If she’s always giggling over silly conversations, or even a cute animal, her spirit is well-suited for this flower.

Hydrangea:

This flower is perfect for the girlfriend who cries, laughs, and screams during every movie. She wears her heart on her sleeve and feels emotions deeply.

Iris:

With wisdom, strength, and the sheer power of her mind, this friend is a great force of nature. A sophisticated lady deserves a sophisticated flower.

Tulip:

This flower is a stunning match for a sassy, beautiful woman. When she looks at it, she’ll be reminded of those silly remarks she made and how they built your friendship.
