What each flower means

Each flower has its own page with its meaning, its colors, the months when it is in season, the dates of the year on which it is given and how to make it last longer in the vase.

Looking by color rather than by flower? See the meaning of flower colors. And if you need a specific date, they are all in the flower calendar.

The same flower can say different things depending on the country and the color: the chrysanthemum is the All Saints’ Day flower in Spain, but elsewhere it is given without that meaning; the red rose is love on Valentine’s Day and Sant Jordi, and the yellow one means friendship. Each page explains these nuances and lists the calendar dates on which that flower takes center stage.
