Types And Meanings Of Flowers For Funeral Arrangements

If someone close to you has died, you might want to bring flowers for funeral. There are several kinds of blooms that you can offer at the memorial service. It is important to know which species are considered acceptable in this type of situation. Pick blossoms that are appropriate and symbolic for the occasion.

The Lily is a traditional blossom that is often seen at memorial services. The blossoms in white signify innocence returned to the soul of the person who has passed away. This bloom is a symbol of majesty, pride and purity. The stargazer specie is particularly appropriate since it stands for sympathy and grief.

The Gladioli has a tall 4 foot stem with multiple blooms. This specie is usually arranged as fan sprays in memorial services. They look elegant and are classic blossoms that honor the dead. This specie symbolizes sincerity, strength, and integrity. You can get them in green, orange, peach, yellow, red, pink, white, and purple.

The Chrysanthemum is often used in France, Spain, Poland, Italy, Hungary, and Croatia as offerings during memorial services. The blossoms specifically denote death. The white species, which signify grief, are used at interments in Japan or China. This blossom is not commonly used in the US except in New Orleans.

If you are attending a long interment, it might be best to bring Carnations which last very long. It smells good and also signifies sympathy. Red variations are symbolic of admiration. Pink petals denote remembrance and the white blooms represent deep love and innocence.

Roses are not only for dates and lovers; they can also be given as flowers for funeral. Pink blooms denote gracefulness and love. Red ones symbolize love, deference and valor. Yellow blossoms are usually offered by close friends of the dead and very dark red ones are usually given by a special love interest of the deceased.
