Flowers have been a longstanding Easter tradition in Christian culture with their fresh, vibrant colors and frequent new buds representing the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In addition to their religious symbolism, flowers also represent the new life that comes with spring and the anticipation of warmer weather and sunnier skies. While these are two of the reasons that flowers make popular Easter gifts, a few others are outlined below.

Flowers Represent Feelings 

Though it may not be widely known, most species of popular flowers have their own unique meanings associated with them.  Each color of rose, for instance, is known to stand for a particular emotion or sentiment with red for love being the most famous.  Easter flowers also have emotional associations that prompt the reason behind many a colorful gift.

• Lilies – These lovely white blooms are known to stand for love and hope and are one of the most traditional Easter flowers.  The single stem that emerges from the bulb is meant to symbolize the resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day after his crucifixion.
• Tulips – These colorful flowers are a popular Easter gift for couples in love and are known to represent passion and love.  Each color has its own special meaning with yellow indicating that the giver is hopelessly in love with the receiver, red being a general meaning of love, and a multicolored bouquet saying that the couple shares a perfect love.
• Chrysanthemums -These happy flowers are said to represent cheerfulness.  When given as an Easter gift, it shows the giver finds the recipient to be a precious part of their life and desires them to have great happiness.
• Daisies – These beautiful blossoms are also an important and traditional Easter flower.  They represent two important sentiments of the holiday: purity and mildness.
