Mother’s Day was established to show our respect and appreciation for our wonderful mothers.

Flowers and plants are a great way to let Mom know you love and respect her. The carnation is the traditional Mothers Day flower, but it can be fun to try something new and different.

You can send flowers that represent your mother’s unique traits. Here are a few flowers that will make your gift unique and express a personal message.

  • Chrysanthemums – “Mums for mom” represent cheerfulness and optimism.
  • Magnolias -  Represent dignity and nobility.
  • Orchids - Delicate and fragile, yet a hardy plant that’s easy to maintain. An orchid will let your mother know she may be beautiful and delicate, but you know her inner strength.
  • Tulips-  Represent caring (pink) and forgiveness (white).
  • Roses - Symbolize purity (white), and thankfulness (pink).

Your mom will love the thought you’ve put into a unique arrangement featuring flowers with meaning.
