Different Types of Flowers Hold Different Meaning
It's no secret that different flowers have different meanings. Many associate the rose with love and affection, tulips with the arrival of spring, and sunflowers with the colorful autumn. However, it is always important to be aware of this symbolism when taking the step of sending or giving flowers to a loved one. In fact, it's even more important to pay attention to detail when the recipient isn't that close to you, because you certainly wouldn't want your boss to think you have romantic feelings for her by sending her a bouquet of red roses to her office, for example.
And because at TodayFlowerDelivery we care about the little things and want our customers to feel this need of ours properly, we always strive to be descriptive and familiarize them in detail with the specifics of the flower giving process. For this reason, we have prepared a short list of the meanings of some of the more popular flowers:
A
bouquet of roses - presenting a bouquet of red roses leaves no room for doubt about the deep feelings of the sender, about the love and passion he/she feels for their object. Unlike
red roses, however,
white roses are often given as a sign of gratitude and respect, making them a good choice for a gift for an older person.
Pink roses are a symbol of friendship.
A
flower arrangement of gerberas is always associated with affection, so gerberas, or larger daisies as some call them, are frequent participants in the bouquets we give to family members.
Lilies, on the other hand, are recognized in the Catholic world as the flower of the Virgin, symbolizing purity and chastity.
White lilies are often present in both wedding and
funeral flower arrangements.
Anyway, in case you want to get more familiar with the symbolism and meanings of flowers, we invite you to browse our collections of flowers according to the flowers in them or follow the
