April Birth Flower: The Daisy

The birth flower for the month of April is the ever-popular daisy.  Such a prolific flower, you can find these favorites on EVERY continent except Antarctica.

The daisy is primarily the symbol of childhood innocence.  It does hearken memories of pulling petals from the wildflower as a little girl; he loves me, he loves me not...  Never really bothering to wonder who "he" was.  Some days it was Ricky Schroeder from "Silver Spoons", others it was the cute boy on the bus.


Each flower has a message, according to the Language of Flowers. The daisy brings a message of innocence and purity, saying, "You have as many virtues as this plant has petals," or, "I will consider your request."

The Birth Flower for June: The Classic Rose or Honeysuckle


June's birth flower is the rose, which has more meanings than one can count! A pink rose means perfect happiness, while a red rose means "I love you." A white rose signifies innocence and purity, while a yellow rose conveys jealousy or a decrease in love. A bouquet of roses means sincere gratitude, whereas a single rose amplifies the meaning of the color (a single red rose means "I REALLY love you"). The other June flower is honeysuckle, which is a strong symbol for the everlasting bonds of love.
