If you've ever wondered what plants are appropriate to send for funerals and what green plants work for funeral services, we're here to help. Funeral flowers can be very personal. You want to send something that will convey your condolences and honor the life of your loved one. While it's easy to fall back on sending flowers, there are other options that can be equally meaningful.
We're going to talk about some of those options today. We'll start by talking about dishes gardens. These are a great way to honor the deceased in a unique way. A dish garden is just a container filled with soil and plants that can be displayed on the table during the funeral service or even taken home by guests as a keepsake from the service.
Another option is a flowering basket, which can include flowers as well as greenery such as ferns or mosses. They don't have to be floral—you could even use artificial plants if you want something more permanent than live greenery but still want a natural look at your event.
The last option we'll talk about today is green plants that work well for funerals. Peace lilies are one of the most commonly sent plants for funerals. They are a plant that is frequently chosen to commemorate and honor the life of a loved one who has passed away. They are also known as spathiphyllum plants, and they come from the scientific family Araceae. Their common name comes from the fact that they were given to the wives of soldiers in World War I by their husbands who had been sent off to fight in Europe. The flowers were meant to symbolize peace, which is why they're sometimes called "sweetheart lilies." They have been cultivated for over 100 years now, but they weren't available in the United States until around 1930.
Peace lilies are an excellent choice for showing respect at funerals because they are long-lasting and easy to care for. They can last up to three months without water, so they won't require much attention after your loved one's service ends.
Bromeliad plants are used for the viewing and service at funerals. They are also a great option to send as a sympathy gift to someone's home or office. Some people choose bromeliads as their sympathy option because the plant is associated with life, growth, and rebirth—which can be comforting for those who are grieving the loss of someone close to them.
Bromeliad plants are known for their incredible ability to adapt to their surroundings and grow in some pretty harsh conditions. They're also beautiful—they produce large leaves that hang down from a central point and hold a reservoir of water called a "cup." These cups collect rainwater or other moisture from the environment around them so that they can grow healthy roots deep below ground level. This quality makes bromeliad plants ideal for funerals because they can survive long periods without water by storing moisture within themselves for later use.
