What Bouquet to Present to a Person with Allergies?
Flowers are a timeless and beautiful way to express love, appreciation, and celebration. However, receiving a bouquet filled with high-pollen flowers can be more of a problem than a pleasure for people with allergies. If you’re sending flowers to someone in Ukraine concerned about allergies, there are ways to choose the perfect bouquet that minimizes discomfort while still delivering joy.
Flowers and Floristry in Ukraine
Ukraine has a rich tradition of floristry, with flowers playing an essential role in celebrations, holidays, and everyday expressions of affection. Whether it’s International Women’s Day, birthdays, anniversaries, or corporate gifts, sending flowers is a deeply embedded cultural practice. Ukrainian florists, including those at Ukraineflora, are known for their fresh, vibrant arrangements sourced from local growers and international suppliers. The country's climate supports a variety of seasonal blooms, ensuring that fresh flowers are always available for delivery.

Understanding Flower Allergies
Allergic reactions to flowers are often triggered by pollen and fragrance. Some flowers produce high amounts of airborne pollen, making them a poor choice for allergy sufferers. Common symptoms of floral allergies include sneezing, watery eyes, nasal congestion, and even skin irritation. Therefore, selecting hypoallergenic flowers or alternative gifts can help ensure a delightful experience for the recipient.
Best Flowers for People with Allergies
When choosing a bouquet for someone with allergies, choose flowers with low pollen production and minimal fragrance. Here are some excellent choices:
- Roses – Surprisingly, roses have tightly packed pollen that doesn’t become airborne, making them a great option.
- Orchids – Their pollen is sticky rather than airborne, making them hypoallergenic.
- Hydrangeas – These beautiful flowers produce little pollen and are well-tolerated by allergy sufferers.
- Carnations – Delicate and colorful, carnations are low in pollen.
- Peonies – With their luxurious petals, they are a safe and stunning choice.
- Tulips – These spring favorites are considered hypoallergenic and vibrant.
Ukraineflora sources these flowers carefully to ensure maximum freshness and long-lasting beauty, making them ideal for recipients in Ukraine who may have allergies.
Flowers to Avoid for Allergy Sufferers
Some flowers are notorious for causing allergic reactions due to their high pollen content. If your recipient has allergies, avoid:
- Lilies – Their strong fragrance and pollen can be irritating.
- Daisies – High pollen content makes them unsuitable.
- Sunflowers – Large amounts of pollen can cause reactions.
- Chrysanthemums – Common allergens that can trigger symptoms.
- Baby’s Breath – Though often used as filler, it has airborne pollen that may irritate.
