Floral Third Anniversary Gift
If you don't want to go with the traditional leather or modern crystal/glass themes, consider giving a Fuchsia plant or bush (the 3rd anniversary flower). Fuchsia is a genus of flowering plants, mostly shrubs. You may recognize these plants from the photo to the right... you usually see hummingbirds hanging around them. There are 100-110 species of Fuchsia, so make sure to go to a good garden center to find which one is right for your climate.
Alternative Third Year Anniversary Gifts
If you're still unsure of what to give, stick with a favorite...jewelry! Pearls and Jade are the gemstones associated with the third anniversary. These gems can be found in necklaces, bracelets, pins, rings, earrings, cuff links, and tie tacks.
