Lilies

Believed to spring forth from the milk of Hera, the queen of the gods, Lilies are among the most ancient of flowers (right up there with the roses) and today, among the most gifted. Weddings, and wedding anniversaries, specifically, feel incomplete if not for the presence of lilies. However, in stark contrast, lilies are also associated with funerals, denoting that the soul has regained its innocence with which it came down as a child. In general, lilies represent honor, purity, sympathy, and majesty whereas different colors denote different meanings like:

• White – Chastity and Virtue
• Peruvian – Friendship and Devotion,
• Pink Stargazer - Prosperity and Wealth
• White Stargazer – Sympathy
• Water Lily – Absolute Truth and Prosperity
