What are some common flowers used in funerals?

In many countries worldwide, chrysanthemums are traditionally used in funeral floral arrangements. White is the most popular color.





Roses are a very popular funeral flower because of their striking beauty. Red roses are the most traditional flower used and white, yellow and pink are frequently used as well.





Another traditional funeral flower is the lily.





Carnations are also traditional funeral flowers. Massed in red, they have great visual appeal.





However, they are more expensive than chrysanthemums and are consequently not used as often.











Good luck.

What are some common flowers used in funerals?
Many flowers are used in funerals, most that I%26#039;ve seen are white. Calla lilies, mums, roses, lilies, gladioli, carnations are all common ones. Colour is usually white or red, or other colours depending on the personality of the deceased. Most I%26#039;ve seen are pale and pastel colours. I know of some who will send a plant instead of flowers, so that the plant will continue to grow and serve as a reminder.
Reply:Lillies, roses, carnation, mums, asters, daisies, babies breath... Usually there is a mixture of flowers.





Depends what kind of flowers the person liked, if they liked roses then I would use a lot of roses in the baskets or sprays..ect whatever you chose..
Reply:yellow roses and lilys
Reply:Carnation%26#039;s and Lilly%26#039;s are very nice...
Reply:Chrysanthemums, Carnations, Lillies, sometimes roses are mixed in, baby%26#039;s breath.


Also, people will send rock gardens, plant arrangments, green plants like a rubber tree, or palm, etc...because they last longer than a cut arrangement and that way the family can keep it.
Reply:Usually, if I%26#039;m put in a situation where I would have to make the choice of flowers, I would think of the dead loved one and try to remember what kind of flowers they would like. Shows that the funeral has a personal touch.
