Sending a loved one flowers can have a specific meaning depending on the species. While red roses are synonymous with love, other blossoms convey unique interpretations, too. Knowing the language of flowers and what certain kinds traditionally express allows many people to design blooms for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, proms, and funerals. 

4 Flowers & Their Meanings

1. Carnations

Depending on the color, carnations have several appealing messages. Send white ones to tell the recipient they're sweet. On the opposite end, yellow carnations signify rejection or disappointment. Leave a lasting impression with red ones, which traditionally mean intense passion. Pink carnations remind loved ones that they are unforgettable.

Send yellow or coral varieties to convey friendship. Popular at weddings, white roses symbolize innocence and purity. If you want to lift someone’s spirits, an arrangement of orange and pink roses convey enthusiasm and happiness, respectively. Bright red roses signify love, while darker shades mean beauty and passion. If you're smitten right away, lavender roses will say so as they traditionally mean love at first sight.

3. Hyacinths

This beautiful fragrant flower has a host of diverse interpretations. Yellow signals jealous feelings while purple means regret and sorrow. Send blue or white varieties if you want to convey unyielding love or a message of prayer and thoughtfulness.

4. Tulips

The native flower of Holland is a staple in spring gardens. Yellow signifies smiles, brightness, and celebration. Certain shades of red and pinks mean passion and declaring love for someone. A bouquet of tulips in a variety of colors can offer energy, vibrancy, and vitality.
