The Meanings of Easter Flowers

Did you know that there are some specific blooms used around Easter time because of their traditional symbolism? For many Americans, Easter is a special time of the year spent making memories with friends and family and receiving a surprise visit from the Easter Bunny. But no Easter celebration is complete without a beautiful floral arrangement, so let’s have a look at a few of these types of flowers, their significance and how you can incorporate them into your home over Easter:

Tulips

These flowers have long been associated with fresh beginnings as they’re some of the first to bloom in spring. White tulips represent forgiveness, reverence and humility — like in the Tulips And Pine bouquet which sports snowy tulips and elegant white pine exhibited in a clear glass vase, adorned with a matching ribbon. Yellow tulips symbolize joy and friendship, so the combination of pink, yellow and white flowers in Teleflora's Tulip Treasure bouquet is ideal for Easter, as is Teleflora's Sacred Grace Bouquet bouquet that features yellow tulips and a porcelain statuette.

Daisies

Many flowers embody innocence, purity and gentleness but few of them convey this message quite like daisies. These delicate flowers also represent new beginnings, so they’re an exemplary choice to convey the meaning of Easter! Basket Full of Wishes consists of beautiful yellow lilies, gerbera daisies, roses, button spray chrysanthemums, carnations and delicate accents of greenery. If you prefer purple, then the Daisy Daydreams arrangement will be to your liking. Both are presented in charming keepsake Easter baskets.

Lilies

For centuries, lilies have symbolized purity, serenity and hope — especially white lilies. They’re easily the most recognizable Easter flowers. Teleflora's Peace & Joy Bouquet features a classic collection of cream Asiatic lilies and milky roses, carnations and chrysanthemums dotted with verdant greenery in an elegant glass cube vase. If you want a pop of color to accompany your white lilies, consider Teleflora's Precious Petals Bouquet! It consists of ivory lilies, bright pink spray roses, peach gerberas and golden yellow miniature carnations, delivered with a glass crystal cross keepsake.
