Common questions about sympathy flowers

What flowers are appropriate for a funeral?

White lilies are the most traditional choice, symbolizing the restored innocence of the soul. White or soft pink roses express reverence, chrysanthemums represent honor, and white carnations symbolize pure love. White and soft pastel colors are most appropriate.

Should I send sympathy flowers to the funeral home or the family's home?

Both options are appropriate. Flowers can be sent to the funeral home before the service for display, or to the family's home afterward as a lasting tribute. Consider the family's preferences and the timing of the service.

What should I write on a sympathy flower card?

Keep your message simple and heartfelt. Express your condolences, share a brief memory of the deceased if appropriate, and offer your support. Examples include 'With deepest sympathy' or 'Thinking of you during this difficult time.'

Are there cultural considerations for sympathy flowers?

Yes, different cultures have varying traditions. Some religions prefer specific colors or flower types. When in doubt, white flowers are generally universally appropriate. It's thoughtful to research or ask about the family's cultural or religious preferences.

What is the etiquette for sending funeral flowers?

Include a card with your name and relationship to the deceased. Order early to ensure delivery before the service. If the obituary says 'in lieu of flowers,' respect this wish and make a donation instead.

How long after a death can I send sympathy flowers?

Flowers can be sent anytime during the first few weeks after a loss. Sending flowers a week or two later can be especially meaningful, as it shows continued support after the initial outpouring subsides.
