Your Birth Flower and Its Unique Symbolism

Birthstones get all the attention (and don’t get us wrong, we’re obsessed too), but did you know you actually have two birth flowers? Yep, that’s double the floral fun, and you can pick the one that matches your personality the best. Each one is packed with deep meaning and symbolism you have in common with all the folks you share the month with. Plus, birth blossoms are such a spirited way to celebrate yourself. So, what’s your story? Join Neubauer’s Flowers in Uniontown, Pennsylvania as we spill all the tea on these special blooms.

January: Carnation, Snowdrop

January might be straight-up icy (seriously, brrr), but carnations and snowdrops are here to remind us that fresh starts are in the house! Carnations represent a range of affection with their colors — pink for a mom’s sweet love, red for that swoon-worthy romance. And snowdrops? They’re total legends, being the first blooms to pop up and show us how to blaze a trail, even through the coldest snow.

February: Violet, Iris

February can feel like one long ride on the struggle bus (seriously, so gray), but violets and irises swoop in to prove there’s beauty in this chilly birthday month. Violets are the loyal besties of the flower world, all about devotion and truth — the ones who’ve got you, no matter what. Irises radiate transformation, faith, and wisdom, helping you glow up in all the best ways.

March: Daffodil, Jonquil

When daffodils and jonquils show up, you know spring has officially arrived — hello, new possibilities and adventures! Daffodils, the early bloomers, are all about optimism, renewal, and rebirth (they’re basically the cheerleaders of the season). Jonquils bring a softer vibe with affection, anticipation, and just a touch of flirty desire. Both flowers share one major trait: prosperity, and honestly, who wouldn’t want more of that?

April: Daisy, Sweet Pea

April is representing, bringing all the sun and light-filled days we’ve been waiting for! Daisies and sweet peas are total mood boosters, with their soft, happy beauty. Daisies are the queens of hope, innocence, and purity — flowers you can absolutely trust. Sweet peas? They’re loyal, blissful, and all about that realness we totally respect. Together, they’re legendary, ready to brighten any day.

May: Lily of the Valley, Hawthorn

May’s birth blooms, lily of the valley and hawthorn, are here to do what they do best: spread happiness like pros. Lily of the valley shows up promising warmth’s return, pure joy, and fresh chances (redemption, anyone?). Plus, let’s not forget its royal bride bouquet cred. Hawthorn brings fertility and a hopeful energy that makes you feel like you can legit conquer the world.

June: Rose, Honeysuckle

Sweetness is the entire mood for June, and roses and honeysuckles lean all the way into it. Roses, the ultimate queen of blooms, are all about love — from fiery passion to deep devotion, with colors doing all the talking. Honeysuckles? They’re serving up new love’s bliss flawlessly, packed with happiness, affection, and all the feel-good energy. Wholesomeness, unlocked!

July: Larkspur, Water Lily

Larkspur and water lilies are a duo that just works — like, how do they balance each other so perfectly? Larkspur is all about sincerity, grace, and that vibrant, youthful energy that makes you wanna relive every summer memory. Meanwhile, water lilies are the chill sages of the flower world, symbolizing enlightenment and rebirth in the most Zen way possible. Together, they’re straight-up magic.

August: Gladiolus, Poppy

Gladiolus and poppies are 100 percent showstoppers and their symbolism is just as epic. Gladiolus, also called sword lilies (because they’re seriously fierce), stand for honor, strength, and bravery. Poppies, on the flip side, are all about remembrance and peace, but they’ve also got this dreamy, sleepy vibe going on. (Think of Elphaba’s poppy spell in Wicked. It tracks, right?)

September: Aster, Morning Glory

Asters and morning glories are total September royalty. Asters, literally named after stars, bring big wisdom, love, and faith — total triple threats in the house. Morning glories, the early birds of the flower world, are all about that seize-the-day life. But they also remind us that beauty doesn’t last forever; blink, and those blooms are already back to buds!

October: Marigold, Cosmo

Marigolds and cosmos are pure magic for October — no question. Marigolds are doing the most, bringing passion, happiness, and wealth, plus serving as a connection to other realms (totally mysterious stuff right there). Cosmos? They’re out here repping harmony and balance, giving us another cosmic-level bridge to the universe. Seriously, no flowers nail the vibe of spooky season better.

November: Chrysanthemum, Peony

Chrysanthemums and peonies are rocking gorgeous petal patterns and classy moods — perfect tens all around. Mums, the ultimate fall icons, are serving up longevity, positivity, and loyalty like pros. Peonies, the queens of the luxe life, bring love, abundance, and healing energy wherever they bloom. These two flowers are prosperity powerhouses, no question.

December: Holly, Narcissus

December is all about that legendary festive spirit, and holly and narcissus totally got the memo. Holly might not have petals, but its bold berries are straight-up iconic for the season. It also brings positivity, protection, and good cheer. Narcissus, on the flip side, are ambassadors of hope and self-love — which is a flex we fully support. Both blooms bring an abundance of renewal energy, making them perfect for rolling into the new year.
