Mother's Day flowers

Mom's annual blooms

Flowers given to mothers on Mother's Day, typically in May.

Certain blooms carry traditional associations—pink carnations for living mothers, white for those who have passed—though roses, lilies, and tulips are equally common.

The phrase often appears in advertising and florist promotions: Don't forget to order your Mother's Day flowers.
