Just like birthstones and astrological signs, each birth month has an associated flower. It is believed that flowers were given as gifts as early as in the Roman Empire as a way to honour Roman Gods on birthdays. The specific meanings of different flowers emerged during the Victorian Era to allow secret messages to be exchanged between lovers. Young men could send ladies inconspicuous bouquets of different kinds and colours of flowers to communicate privately.

Today, the language of birth month flowers makes giving flowers as gifts thoughtful and unique. Not only does each month have an associated flower, each flower has a hidden message. For a touching birthday gift, give a simple bouquet containing the recipient’s birth month flower. For special occasions or “just because” gifts, floral arrangements can convey a special meaning based on which flowers are in your bouquet. Perhaps a bouquet of asters and roses to say “take care of yourself for me” and “I love you” to someone that is feeling a bit under the weather. Or brighten a dim office with a bouquet of daisy and lily flowers to inspire cheerfulness and happiness with your customers and coworkers. Follow our guide below, to customise a bouquet with a special meaning – or make sure you pick the right one from our current collection.

Carnation

These tall and slim flowers with round blooms symbolise love, fascination and distinction. Give carnations of red, pink or yellow based on the meaning you would like to convey. Red means “my heart aches for you”, pink means “I’ll never forget you” and yellow is “I wish I could be with you”. Perhaps a bouquet of yellow for a long distance friend, or a posy of pink and red for a long term partner.

Violet and Iris
