Which flowers are often used at funerals?
You can work with the florist to choose flowers that feel appropriate to the moment, perhaps choosing kinds or colours that the person who’s died liked best, or blooms that represented your feelings towards them. There are also some common choices used for funeral due to their symbolism, they include:
Their meaning changes according to their colour, from red meaning love and passion to yellow meaning friendship.
Lilies represent purity, innocence and sympathy.
Another bloom that’s meaning changes with their colour. Dark red carnations symbolise deep affection while pink show a mother’s everlasting love.
Bright daisy-like flowers come in all sorts of hades and symbolise loyal love and innocence.
