5 Popular Flowers for Mother's Day and Their Meanings
When it comes to flowers, the possibilities are endless. Here we'll highlight just a few spring blooms that have historically been most associated with celebrating Mom, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society.
Carnations: Carnations are traditionally the official flower of Mother’s Day. It has come to signify purity, faith, love, beauty and all the traits that represents the virtue of Motherhood.
Tulips: Tulips are an elegant choice for gifting as they are the heralds of spring and represent new life. This flower represent perfect love, affection, good wishes and good health.
Lilies: Lilies are one of the most beloved flowers by many mothers due to their large blooms and beautiful shape.

White lilies represent purity and majesty, Pink lilies symbolise admiration, love and abundance.
Roses: The rose, or the Queen of Flowers, has played a major role in poetry, religion, art, literature, music, medicine, fashion design, perfume, and home decoration for centuries. Deep pink roses represent appreciation and gratitude, light pink roses represent happiness, joy, admiration, peach roses symbolize thanks and gratitude.
Chrysanthemums: These stunning flowers were first cultivated in China in as early as the 15th century BC, where it was believed to have “the power of life”. They also symbolize friendship, happiness, and well-being. In Australia and the UK, chrysanthemums are the official flower for Mother’s Day due to their nickname “Mums.”

Flowers say it all! Stargazer Lily - The Floral Star
The Lily - traditionally representing innocence and purity - appears as far back as ancient Greek (pictures of lilies adorned the walls of unearthed ruins of a home on Crete dated at 1580 B.C.) and Roman civilizations and later in biblical traditions. Stargazer lilies, or Lilium Stargazer, have come to be associated with these meanings, but are also considered symbolic of aspiration, youth, boldness, beauty, and prosperity
Stargazer lilies are a combination of Oriental and Asiatic lilies. They were first cultivated in 1974 by American lily breeder Leslie Woodriff. The large blooms of this magnificent flower face upward toward the sky and resemble a perfect star. So, Woodruff named this hybrid “Stargazer.”
With their intensely extravagant, long-lasting fragrant blossoms, they are the world’s 4th most popular cut flower, right behind roses, chrysanthemums and tulips. Fresh-cut Stargazer lilies can last up to two weeks with the proper care. To extend the life of your Stargazer lilies, make sure to clip their stems and change the water in their vase every few days.
Stargazers are floral celebrities – bold, beautiful, and dramatic – and they’re sure to make that statement for you, whatever the occasion may be!

Flowers say it all! Alstroemeria: The Peruvian Lily
Alstroemeria: The Peruvian Lily
Alstroemeria, one of history’s most-loved and beautiful flowers, offer dramatic, bright, long-lasting blooms (up to 2 weeks when cared for properly) that are delightful in any space.
Alstroemeria are often thought to represent mutual support and helping each other through the trials and tribulations of life. So for this reason, they’re the perfect flower to say ‘I’ve got your back’ or ‘thank you for being my rock’. The meaning behind alstroemeria derived from the six beautiful petals of the flower. Each petal represents a different characteristic: understanding, humor, patience, empathy, commitment and respect. Their twisted leaves are also a symbol of bonding, stability and overcoming difficulties together.
As its alternative name suggests, The Peruvian Lily is native to Peru and the mountains of Chile and Brazil. The famous botanist Baron Von Alstroemer brought the lily seeds from South America to Europe in the 18th century.
As a friendship flower or a symbol of romantic love, the bright and beautiful hues of the Peruvian Lily are a perfect choice for any floral gift.

Flowers say it all! Gypsophila: The Sparkling Tiny Flower That Steals The Show
Gypsophila: The Sparkling Tiny Flower That Steals The Show
Gypsophila comes from the Greek words gypsos, meaning gypsum, and phileo, meaning to love. The name is derived from the fact that all the flowers in this family thrive on soil high in gypsum, a mineral that makes the soil too thick and heavy for many other types of plants. The common variety dates back several centuries. Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus first received specimens from Johann Amman in the 18th century and are native to parts of Australia, Eurasia, the pacific islands, and regions of Africa.
These delicate white flowers are not only beautiful, appearing as “bright white sparkles” among more vibrant flowers like roses, chrysanthiums and tulips, but have a rich history of symbolizing:
• Everlasting and undying love, including family, platonic, and romantic bonds
• Reconnecting with lost loves or disconnected family members
• The power of the Holy Spirit in Christian faith
• Innocence, Pureness and freedom
What’s Behind The Name?
The short answer to this question is, no one is quite sure. Dictionaries list the first recorded use of the name “baby’s breath” between 1885 and 1890. These flowers are small and delicate, so the theory is that the name may simply be a reflection of their small whisper of an accent in a floral arrangement.
