Funeral flowers are floral arrangements specifically designed and chosen to be displayed at funerals or memorial services to honor and pay tribute to the deceased. These flowers serve as a visual expression of sympathy, condolences, and respect for the departed, as well as comfort and support for grieving loved ones.
Common types of funeral flowers include:
- Wreaths: Circular arrangements symbolizing eternity and continuity of life. They are often placed on display stands or draped over caskets.
- Sprays: Large, formal arrangements designed to lay on top of the casket. They can be single-ended (designed to be placed against the casket) or double-ended (designed to be viewed from both sides).
- Casket Sprays: Specifically designed to cover the length of the casket, these arrangements are typically placed on top of the casket.
- Bouquets: Compact, handheld arrangements that can be placed next to or on top of the casket, or presented to family members.
- Crosses: Floral arrangements shaped like crosses, symbolizing faith and spirituality. They can be displayed on easels or laid on the casket.
- Heart-Shaped Arrangements: Symbolizing love and affection, these arrangements are often chosen by close family members or partners.
- Standing Tributes: Tall, vertical arrangements displayed on stands or pedestals, often placed near the entrance or around the perimeter of the service area.
- Plants: Living plants or potted arrangements symbolizing growth, life, and everlasting memory. They can be taken home by the family after the service.
- Baskets: Arrangements placed in baskets, which can include a variety of flowers and greenery. They are typically sent to the funeral home or the family’s residence as a gesture of sympathy.
