Mahal Kita literally means I love you in Tagalog, the national language of the Philippines.
When my father was 30 years old, he visited an old friend in a small hospital in the middle of Wales. As he walked through the doors of the ward, he noticed a young nurse and he knew, without even having yet met her, that he would marry her one day. Two years later he married my mother. My mother is Filipino and Mahal Kita was one of the first phrases my father learnt to speak in her language. On every special occasion, every "thank you", every "I'm sorry", my father would send a bunch of flowers and a card with a little poem written inside and always adding the words “mahal kita". That's why we use the name Mahal Kita Flowers. Every time I use any flowers with the words and brand of Mahal Kita I am reminded of the love of my parents and how they celebrated life, each other and all the events of the year.
