The Larkspur is the July birth flower and it symbolizes ardent attachment and an open heart. The larkspur is often seen as a flower of compromise, the symbol of a win-win situation. This is because it resembles a spear being covered by a wreath which communicates the concept of a peaceful negotiation. The larkspur also conveys levity and lightness.

The Chrysanthemum is November’s birth flower and it symbolizes friendship, compassion, and secret love. Some countries in Europe see the chrysanthemum as symbolic of death and employ the flower at funerals or on graves. In China, Korea, and Japan, white chrysanthemums symbolize grief and lamentation. However, in the USA, the flower is understood as symbolising cheerfulness and positivity.

The Poppy is August’s birth flower and it symbolizes sleep, peace and death. The flower symbolizes death due to the opium that is extracted from it, and it is associated with death due to the blood-red colour of the flower in particular. Poppies were used as offerings to the death in Greek and Roman mythology. Why not get some through flower delivery?
