Some of the Most Common Funeral Flowers and Their Meanings

Giving flowers or floral arrangements for a funeral is a tradition that has been around for a long time. If you have a hard time choosing which type of blossoms you should bring to a funeral of someone dear to you, here are some recommendations for you:

• Lilies
  These strongly aromatic blossoms are said to be the go-to funeral flower of many people. They symbolize purity, innocence, rebirth or radiance of the soul, and virginity.

• Roses
  Some of the most common flowers for funeral services are roses. And each of their colors is associated with specific meanings and sentiments. White roses, for example, symbolize innocence, purity, and spirituality. The deep red roses evoke strong emotions of grief and love, while the dark pink ones are used to express gratitude to the departed.

• Carnations
  These flowers are often used for large floral displays like wreaths and standing sprays. Like roses, each color of carnation also signifies a different meaning. Red symbolizes love and affection, while pink is said to be the color of remembrance.

• Orchids
  These lovely florals convey eternal love. If you want to express your sympathy to the surviving family of the departed, white and pink orchids are your best choice.

• Chrysanthemums
  The meaning behind the colors of mums varies globally. In Croatia, France, Italy, Poland, and Spain, the red chrysanthemums signify death and mourning. But in China, Japan, and Korea, it’s the white mums that symbolize grief.

• Gladiolus
  These tall flowers are often used to create a visually stunning funeral flower arrangement. They’re said to symbolize remembrance and admiration.
