Tips before you post

  1. Photograph flowers in soft, even light, such as a bright window or open shade. Midday sun bleaches pale petals and turns white blooms into a blank patch.

  2. Get close to one stem and let the rest blur, then add a wider shot of the whole vase or bed. Flowers read best as a pair of pictures: detail first, setting second.

  3. Name the flower in the caption when you know it. Followers who garden or arrange will comment with their own growing tips, which helps the post.

  4. Shoot cut flowers on day one or two, while they're still upright. Wilting tulips and drooping peonies look tired on screen even when the colour is good.

  5. If you tag a florist or a garden, say which stem or bed the picture shows. A specific tag is more likely to be reshared than a general one.

Questions people ask

What is a good short caption for a flower photo?

Keep it to the flower and the moment: “Yellow on a grey Monday” or “Three stems, one jam jar.” A short line lets the colour do the talking, and it works on a close-up where there is little else to describe.

Should I name the flower in the caption?

If you know it, yes. A name such as ranunculus or sweet pea gives people something to reply to, and gardeners often add advice. If you don't know the name, say so in the caption and ask. That also draws comments.

Do flower captions need hashtags?

No. The captions on this page work without them. Write a line about what the picture shows and who or what you saw, and add tags only if you have a reason to.

What should I write when I'm sending flowers to someone?

Write about the person, not the plant. Mention something specific: the reason, the colour they like, or the reaction you hope for. Keep the line short enough to read in one glance.
