"The traditional Mother's Day flower is a carnation, either pink carnations
given to mothers to represent love for them, or white carnations worn in respect
for those mothers who are no longer living. This custom originated in the US
where in 1906 Anna Jarvis promoted the wearing of her mother's favourite flower,
a white carnation. "

The right flowers for the right occasionsThere are some conventions about which
flowers are most suitable for which occasions. As examples, let us consider the
occasions of birthday, wedding day, Valentine's Day, and Mother's Day. Usually
bright-colored flowers are chosen for birthdays. Seasonal flowers are considered
most appropriate for a wedding day. For the Valentine's Day, roses are supposed
to be the best and for Mother's Day, carnations thought to be most
appropriate[3]. There are other flowers that are deemed best for the number of
other occasions that are celebrated.Sample flower meaningsHere are the meanings
associated with some flowers. Amaryllis flowers are associated with pride,
Daffodils are associated with chivalry and heather is associated with
admiration[2]. The meaning 'passion' associated with rose is well-known. Within
the category of roses, there is a multitude of meanings associated with roses of
various colors.
