Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to show your mom your love and appreciation than with a bouquet of flowers? If you’re not sure what kinds to get her, consider one of these classic choices. Here’s your guide to four of the most popular type and color choices. 

4 Popular Mother’s Day Flowers 

1. Rose

There’s a rose for any occasion. These beautiful blossoms come in a vast array of colors, each of which has a different meaning. For Mother’s Day, consider pink, which symbolizes admiration and gentleness, red for love and honor, or fuchsia for appreciation and gratitude. You can even select a variety of roses with multiple shades, such as pink, red, and white stripes. Roses can be paired with a range of other flowers in different bouquet styles, from minimalist to extravagant.

2. Tulip 

Like roses, tulips are available in nearly any color imaginable from deep purple to pastel pink. They’re one of the first flowers to bloom in spring and are associated with rebirth and new beginnings. Purple represents royalty, while pink indicates caring. Yellow tulips at one point expressed unrequited love but now mean cheerfulness. Red indicates love and respect. Consider a bouquet with bold reds and yellows or a selection of pastels like lavender, pink, and sunshine yellow.

3. Daisies

In Norse mythology, the daisy is the sacred flower of Freya, a goddess associated with fertility, love, and beauty. For this reason, daisies are one of the most popular flowers to give to mothers, symbolizing new beginnings, childbirth, and motherhood. Daisies are typically yellow or white, although they can also be found in shades of purple and pink.

4. Lilies

Like tulips, lilies are closely associated with spring and new beginnings. White blossoms symbolize innocence and purity, while yellow lilies symbolize thankfulness and a desire for enjoyment. Pink symbolizes wealth, romance, and prosperity. Stargazers are a popular choice, particularly for vivacious and ambitious moms. Calla lilies are understated and regal, while Casablanca lilies are an elegant middle-ground with a name meaning “celebration.”
