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.

A common type of blossom associated with interments is the Lily. White varieties mean that innocence has returned to the deceased person's soul after his death. The bloom is also symbolic of dignity, purity, and splendor. The white stargazer lilies denote sympathy that you feel towards the family left behind.

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.

Another common blossom used for interments is the Chrysanthemum. You will find a lot of this bloom in Spain, France, Italy, Croatia, Poland and Hungary memorial services.
