Thanksgiving Flowers and Meanings

Thanksgiving is a time full of family traditions, get-togethers, and reflecting on everything in life we’re grateful for. Flowers can be a great way to symbolize the occasion and are a perfect gift to bring to the host or hostess on this holiday.

Gratitude

Showing your gratitude is always a big part of Thanksgiving. Show your thanks by bringing your host flowers for a centerpiece! Dark pink or peach roses, yellow lilies, and hydrangeas are all perfect examples of flowers that symbolize gratitude.

Family

Thanksgiving is a day to get together and celebrate family. Chrysanthemums, alstroemeria, tulips, and sunflowers are all beautiful ways to represent your tight-knit clan and are also great flowers for fall. Thanksgiving and family go hand in hand, so make sure your flowers reflect that!

Colors

Fall colors are always a top choice for Thanksgiving flowers, but specific colors’ meanings may be more closely tied with Thanksgiving than others.

Yellow- spreads happiness and joy
Orange- shows excitement or enthusiasm
Purple- expresses feelings of admiration and tradition
Green- associated with good health and good fortune
Pink- symbolizes non-romantic love

No matter what kind of flowers you choose to give this Thanksgiving, your host will appreciate a gorgeous arrangement from a local florist.
