Not every flower type is appropriate for every occasion. The bright colors of a <a href="https://bouqs.com/flowers/get-well">"Get Well" Bouq</a> may not suit the muted tone of a funeral, for example. In general, sympathy and funeral flowers tend to be white or pale pink. More specifically, common funeral flower types include:• <a href="https://bouqs.com/flowers/lilies">Lilies</a> have long been popular sympathy flowers since they represent a return to innocence. White lilies, in particular, might be the most common type of flower funeral-goers will see.• <a href="https://bouqs.com/flowers/chrysanthemums">Chrysanthemums</a> are typical funeral flowers around the world. In Europe, chrysanthemums are so associated with death that they're rarely found in other arrangements, and Asian Pacific countries see white chrysanthemums as a symbol of grief and mourning.• Gladioli represent integrity and remembrance. They are often used as a funeral flower for people who were heavily involved in civic duties around their community such as judges, lawyers, and police officers.• <a href="https://bouqs.com/flowers/carnations">Carnations</a> are another frequent choice of sympathy flower gifts. White carnations symbolize innocence, while red carnations represent undying love and admiration.• <a href="https://bouqs.com/flowers/orchids">Orchids</a> are a lovely option for some women since they represent thoughtfulness and femininity. Pink orchids are the most common color choice when sending condolence flowers.• <a href="https://bouqs.com/flowers/roses">Roses</a> are the flower of true love, which makes them a natural choice for sympathy flower delivery. Since roses come in a variety of colors, you can select the color that best represents the deceased or your relationship to them.

While it depends on your relationship to the deceased, spending between $70-$90 is appropriate for a tasteful sympathy bouquet. If you are closer to the family of the deceased, then spending more might be appropriate. Remember, it's the gesture of kindness that counts the most. Whatever you select will help comfort the grieving family and friends.

Of course! Flowers always make for a thoughtful sympathy gift. They are a beautiful choice to let somebody know that you're thinking of them during this difficult time of loss. There are no words that can take away a person's grief, so flowers are a tactful way to show a loved one that there are people here that care.

Sympathy flowers are typically small bouquets sent to a grieving person's home or office. They show your loved one that they're in your thoughts. Funeral flowers are usually larger bouquets, wreaths, or sprays that are sent to the funeral home. These are displayed during the service to honor and remember the departed.Need help finding the right words? Explore our <a href="https://bouqs.com/blog/sympathy-messages/">Sympathy Message Guide</a> that features 50 thoughtful phrases you can choose from in order to send the right message.

We know that it can be tricky figuring out what to write in a card accompanying a sympathy flower delivery. After all, no words exist to cure somebody's grief. Your goal is to express your support for the mourner.&nbsp; A few phrases that we commonly see on sympathy cards include things like:<ul><li>My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.</li><li>I'm sorry for your loss.</li><li>My deepest sympathies and sincere condolences as you mourn.</li></ul>Need help finding the right words? Explore our&nbsp;<a href="https://bouqs.com/blog/sympathy-messages/">Sympathy Message Guide</a>&nbsp;that features 50 thoughtful phrases you can choose from in order to send the right message.

You can send sympathy flowers any time, but we would suggest that the sooner you can offer your condolences, the better. That's why we offer same or next day delivery on some of our <a href="https://bouqs.com/flowers/popular">most popular Bouqs</a>. If you want to send something to the funeral home, schedule flower delivery for the day before the service.

Orchids are happiest in medium to low indirect light. They only need to be watered once a week, just make sure that the pot is dry in between watering. An ice cube a week also works well for the orchid's watering needs! After orchid flowers fall, continue to care for plant to encourage more blooms. 

Farmer's Choice Orchid

Water thoroughly once a week. Allow soil to dry before watering again.

Husband and wife team Bas van Eijk and Alison Glasco produce sustainably-grown, beautiful orchids and house plants from their perfect location in warm and sunny Los Osos, California.
