Roses are ever-popular, but as they come in different colours, they are also appropriate to give at funerals. White roses may express innocence, and reverence, while crimson roses say grief and sorrow. You could also present the family with yellow roses to cement your friendship at this difficult time or pink roses to signify grace and gentility.

Orchids are ancient flowers that have been a top choice for florists for millennia. They often come as living plants, but some florists stock them as cut flowers. They thrive indoors and are famously challenging to care for, so are the perfect gift for someone with a green thumb.
Australian Natives

Natives can utterly transform your living space and make a bold statement.
