Roses have long been associated with motherhood, making them a popular choice on Mother’s Day. Roses were sacred to the Greek goddess Isis, seen as the ideal mother, and they also symbolize the Virgin Mary. Pink roses signify grace, elegance and appreciation, while yellow roses symbolize friendship and joy, so both colors are perfect to give your mom.

Orchids

In China, orchids are a symbol for many children, and they also signify refinement and beauty. Every mother will love a bouquet of these exotic flowers for Mother’s Day.

Carnations

According to Christian legend, pink carnations are believed to have first grown from the ground where the Virgin Mary shed tears over Jesus’ death. Because of this, many believe carnations are a symbol of a mother’s eternal love. Pink carnations, as well as red and white ones, often comprise Mother’s Day bouquets.

Tulip

Tulips are traditionally associated with new life, charity and spring. With their grace and beauty, these flowers are always a popular option for Mother’s Day.

Lilly

Though lilies are normally considered an Easter flower, they are often used on Mother’s Day as well. Many florists add a few calla lilies or white lilies to mixed bouquets on Mother’s Day.

Other factors

Symbolism shouldn’t be the only factor when you’re shopping for Mother’s Day flowers.

Consider outdoor plants and bushes that your mom can plant in her garden as well, such as miniature roses. Mini roses are often sold as houseplants but can be transplanted outdoors for the full sunlight and healthy humidity that they need.
