Say it with flowers

In planning a flower arrangement for my father's memorial service this week I have been thinking of the traditional meaning of some flowers.  Here are a few from my garden (pictures from previous seasons) and their meanings.
Amaryllis:  Pastoral Poetry, Pride
 Azalea:  Fragile and ephemeral passion

Begonia:  "Beware, I am fanciful!"


Chrysanthemum:  You are a wonderful friend

Coreopsis:  You are always cheerful

Look for more meaningful flower posts in the future!
