Most commonly, White carnations hold significant importance as it symbolizes pure love, innocence, and loveliness. Just as the mother’s grandeur is majestic and enchanting, Orchids heralds as a true form of pure love, loveliness, and beauty that is the mother to us, blossoming with her ferns spread in the vicinity in our lives. Anna Jarvis held a memorial ceremony where hundreds of Orchards were given as a token of respect. She values the symbolism of white carnation emblem as :
“ Its whiteness is to symbolize the truth, purity and broad chastity of mother love; its fragrance, her memory, and her prayers. The carnation does not drop its petals but hugs them to its heart as it dies, and so, to mothers hug their children to their hearts, their mother love never dies.”
Lilies and purple irises are also among the favorite choices for mothers, symbolizing faith and hope.
And there are those kick-ass mothers who raise their children without the dichotomy of a man. Their perspective of raising them by adapting the bold-brazen attitude of a father, earning enough to feed their children and being their idol man in a woman is truly a job. Women, unconditionally love their children ensure no obstacle ever come in the way of their children.
