Classic Flowers
1. Roses
Symbolizing love, grief, innocence, and purity, roses can say everything you feel when words fail. A white rose is often used to denote innocence and reverence, while red roses can express passionate love and grief. It’s also common to see yellow and pink roses at memorials.
2. Carnations
A white carnation represents purity and innocence, while pink carnations send thoughts of remembrance. Each color is often used to represent different emotions, but these ideas are suggestions, not rules.
3. Lilies
Lilies are one of the most common funeral flowers. Their simple white appearance appeals to people’s love of simplicity. Lilies also look nice combined with other flowers and make a perfect bouquet feature.
4. Gladiolus
Gladiolus look lovely as an addition. With the name meaning “little sword” this flower symbolizes strength and integrity.
5. Hydrangea
Hydrangeas can signify sincere and heartfelt emotion, making them perfect additions to any sympathy arrangement. Popular hydrangea colors are white, pink, and blue.
