Tulips

Tulips are the ultimate spring flower. The blooming bulbs have been an Easter favorite for decades as they symbolize love, passion, and faith. Tulips always bring joy and fresh energy. For classic subtle Easter tones, choose whites, yellows, and pastels for your flower bouquet. To accentuate the bright energy of spring, opt for radiant reds, pinks, and yellows to brighten any room.

Daffodils

Daffodils are a unique and radiant bloom that shouts spring. Daffodils are some of the first flowers to pop out of the wet earth in the spring, making them a symbol of the renewal of life and hope. For those who celebrate Easter, daffodils have come to represent resurrection, which is the main theme of the holiday. Symbolism aside, daffodils come with a bright yellow smiling face that is sure to bring joy and hope for the sunny season ahead.

Daisies

These classic flowers are wildly underrated. Daisies are some of the brightest, most vibrant, and happiest flowers you can bring to your home. They have a sweet and earthy aroma reminiscent of the innocence and freshness of spring and new life. These happy blooms also signify purity and gentleness, which perfectly captures the essence of Easter. Bring the joy of spring into your home with a bundle of fresh daisies.

Hyacinths

Hyacinths are a divine smelling flower that features spears of star-shaped flowers and bright green foliage. Aside from being a lovely addition to any Easter bouquet, hyacinths are the perfect potted plants to decorate your Easter tables. In many cultures, hyacinths represent rebirth and renewal, making them a perfect on-brand springtime bloom. Coming in perfect Easter pastels, such as purples, pinks, and whites, hyacinths are just one of those stunning springtime flowers that perfectly capture the essence of the season.

Lillies

White lilies are an Easter favorite and are a great traditional gift to give to your loved ones for this holiday. Whether gorgeously arranged in a bouquet or potted so the bulbs can be replanted for next year, white lilies are a beautiful and sweet-smelling welcome to the brightness of spring. White lilies symbolize purity and hope, making them the perfect flower for the energies of spring and Easter. They are also an ancient religious symbol for the Resurrection and, truth be told, Easter wouldn’t quite be Easter without the sweetness and serenity of white lilies.

Irises

While irises aren’t as traditional to Easter as tulips and daffodils, they are certainly a stunning springtime flower to bring into your home for the Easter holiday. Their unique blooms and beautiful colors make them an alluring favorite. Choose irises that are pastel purple with streaks of yellow to match the Easter palette. They pair wonderfully with lilies, daisies, and daffodils to make a stunning springtime bouquet.
