A Floral Celebration of the UAE National Day

We decorate the country in red, green, white, and black leading up to the UAE National on 2nd December, flowers are a simple but effective way to add color and be proudly patriotic. Here are a few ways to incorporate flowers into your UAE National Day Celebrations:

Flag Coloured Arrangements

The easiest way to deliver a message of patriotism is by choosing flower arrangements in the colours of the UAE flag. Red, green, white, and black. Black flowers are harder to find than red and white, but not impossible. The green, of course, comes from the foliage. All you need to do is request your florist to leave some of the foliage in as it is standard practice to remove most foliage to extend the life of fresh flowers.  

54 Flowers for 54 Years

If you want your message of pride to be subtler and deeper than the colors of the flag, you can do it with an arrangement of 54 flowers to celebrate how the UAE has blossomed as a nation in the 54 years of existence as a nation. One lively flower to represent each year. If you prefer your floral arrangements to be in a single color but want to celebrate the UAE this Eid-Al-Etihad, this is a great option for you. Fys Flowers is here to deliver fresh flowers to you wherever you are in the UAE. 

Make Your Own Flower Box

Few things are more personal and a handmade arrangement. A flower box can be an easier and more modern solution for floral arrangements. It can also be a solution to the issue of incorporating a black coloured element into the arrangement– a black box, perhaps in a heart shape to add more love. Get yourself some floral foam and cut it in the right shape for your box. There are tutorials available if you aren’t familiar with florists’ tools like floral foam. 

Pride in the Name

Flower shops in the UAE are selling themed arrangements for UAE National Day. A popular option is an arrangement in the shape of the letters ‘UAE’ with flowers arranged in the shape and colors of the flag. 

A Themed Flower Vase

Last minute decision to use flowers for your UAE National Day celebrations? No worries. You can still show your patriotism. You can easily get a vase that uses the colors of the UAE flag. Can’t find anything you like? You can DIY it– handmade things hold more love anyway. If you have a plain vase handy and access to paint, go for it. Not interested in getting your hands colorful? Use ribbons in the colors of the flag and wrap it around your flower vase or tie your arrangement together with them. Minimalist and chic.
