What flowers are used in the UK to express condolences?
Funeral bouquets can be any flowers or colours, but lilies, white. are the most usual for conveying condolences,
Reply:Oriental Lilly%26#039;s...they are the most popular funeral/condolence flower
Reply:Lilies I would say. Although I love lilies %26amp; buy them for myself.

Reply:lillies.
Reply:The white Arum Lily is about as traditional as they come; when my neighbour and friend died, I had a bouquet of freesias made up for her because they were her favourite flower and when my mother died, my father had a replica of her bridal bouquet made for her coffin.
Reply:Usually white Lillie%26#039;s


I hope this helps
Reply:It%26#039;s usual to have white Lillie%26#039;s. Purple is also a colour they often use at funerals and sad occasions. I would go for white Lillie%26#039;s with maybe a purple bow or ribbon.
Reply:carnations or lillies.
Reply:If you wish to send flowers to the family home, although it is to express your condolences on a loss, there are no particular flowers to be used. Perhaps if you know of the person%26#039;s favourite flowers, you could have a bouquet made up at the florist. If you do not have this knowledge, have a bouquet made of brightly coloured flowers to give upliftment at this sad time with an appropriate handwritten card by yourself.
Reply:White roses, lillies or carnations.
Reply:Tulips
Reply:orchids are very apt for a way to express your condolences
Reply:White lillies or if you are close to the family/person try sending a rose bush so that they can plant it in the garden to always remind them.
Reply:personally, i wouldn%26#039;t send lillies, the scent reminds me too much of death and it lingeurs to much too. also you have the problem of the pollen staining clothes and skin. i find them very overpowering and problematic. i would send something very simple, but im afraid my knowledge of flowers is not great.
Reply:There are no rules those hand tied arrangements are very nice
