What Is The Symbolic Meaning Of Traditional Funeral Flowers

Flowers and floral arrangements convey great meaning when displayed at various important events and special occasions. Weddings might tend towards the use of bright petaled flowers, for example, while a man on a romantic date might want to offer red roses as a sign of his passionate love.

At a funeral, the right flower choice can provide great relief to loved ones who are struggling through a tough time. It’s easy to tell what kind of flowers we shouldn’t offer to a funeral ceremony or reception, but we’re not always aware of the right fauna choices in these situations.

As Teleflora.com will show, there are many flower varieties to make the right impact for those who need comforting. You might consider picking the person’s favorite flower or color.  Once you find a nice arrangement and color combination, you have something beautiful to remember.

Carnations are another choice for those who want to offer a bit more color to the proceedings. Available in reds, pinks, and more, carnation arrangements are long-lasting and fragrant, which can freshen up the funeral atmosphere.

Chrysanthemums, a late season flower, are symbolic of death in many European countries, including Italy, Hungary, France, Spain and Croatia. In fact, America is one of the few countries in the world that use mums for their decorative quality without associating the flower with grief and consolation.

After the ceremony, you might consider sending the grieving family the gift of
