Named as the mourning flower, white flowers, are the most popular flower choice for funeral flowers, elegant and pearl-like. Evoking purity and peace, white blossoms are the perfect bereavement flowers to send during times of mourning and provide a humble and pious tribute to the deceased.
Recognised internationally as the traditional funeral flower, white lilies symbolise purity and sympathy. Considered as the paragon of the soul’s restored innocence at death, the Christian belief believes white lilies dappled Virgin Mary’s burial tomb in Jerusalem.

- White carnations, which pair beautifully with all funeral flowers and last for long, as do white carnations.
When did funeral wreaths originate?
Originating from the time of Ancient Greece, funeral wreaths propogate the circle of eternal life. Replete with lush greenery, the evergreen foliage on funeral wreaths stem from early Christian funeral rites that honoured religious martyrs and symbolise the eternal spirit following death. Steeped in the Victorian age, funeral flowers evolved into an elaborate design of white flowers, reminiscent of traditional mourning colours.
You might see funeral flower wreaths laid as tributes at war memorials in Australia on Anzac Day and Remembrace Day. Adorned with a lest we forget sash, these funeral wreaths commemorate the bravery of the soldiers who lost their lives at war.
