If you haven’t heard of birth flowers before, you can kind of equate them to a birth stone or zodiac sign. Each birth month comes with two stunning birth flowers that match the season’s vibe and those born in it. These blooms have also been packed with meaning since Victorian times (when people sent flowers instead of emoji-filled text messages). If you’re eager to find out what your birth flowers symbolize and say about you, the experts at Stadium Flowes, the top florist in Everett, are spilling all the deets!

January: Carnation, Snowdrop

January babies are filled with love and hope. Carnations are packed with admiration and their different colors represent all types of love (pink for mom’s unconditional love, red for romantic love, and white for the purest form of love). Snowdrops are literal icons of hope and fresh starts, blooming through the cold and harsh winter weather. If that’s not a metaphor for thriving against all odds, IDK what is.

February: Violet, Iris

February is the month of love, so of course, its flowers have serious heart — not to mention hues that bring the winter from drab to fab. Violets symbolize deep devotion, truth, and loyalty—aka, the kind of love that lasts. Irises take it up a notch with their message of wisdom, faith, and transformation, because every love story (and life story) is about growth.

March: Daffodil, Jonquil

March is where winter finally starts backing off, and its birth flowers totally match the fresh vibe of springtime. Daffodils symbolize renewal and optimism, basically giving main character mixed with feel-good energy. Jonquils bring warmth, affection, and just a little bit of flirtiness—because spring is for new starts and new crushes.

April: Daisy, Sweet Pea

Forget those April showers, the flowers are already here! Daisies and sweet peas are the perfect flowers to reflect April babies. Daisies represent innocence, optimism, and the kind of friend who takes your secrets to the grave. Sweet peas (on the other hand) are all about truth, loyalty, and those seriously sweet springtime moments.

May: Lily of the Valley, Hawthorn

May’s birth flowers aren’t just pretty—they’re legendary. Lily of the valley, a staple in royal weddings, symbolizes pure joy, redemption, and the return of warmth (so dreamy). Hawthorn, a perfect fit for May’s various occasions and celebrations, represents hope and fertility. This month is all about growing, blooming, and thriving!

June: Rose, Honeysuckle

June is bursting with summertime love, and so are its birth (nobody is surprised). Roses are the ultimate symbol of romance, passion, and beauty. Ffun fact: it’s also the most popular flower worldwide!) Honeysuckles bring that sweet, fresh love energy—symbolizing affection, happiness, and all the heart-eyes moments the summer brings.

July: Larkspur, Water Lily

Larkspur and water lilies totally match that summer coming-of-age energy. Larkspur keeps things light and carefree, symbolizing youthfulness and positivity. Meanwhile, water lilies bring a little wisdom, representing rebirth and enlightenment—because summer is for both fun-in-the-sun and a glow-up. July’s birth flowers remind you that every summer has a story, and yours is just beginning.

August: Gladiolus, Poppy

Birth flowers for August are giving powerful and poetic at the same time. Gladiolus blooms are all about strength, honor, and victory—because August babies don’t back down. Meanwhile, poppies bring a softer side with their connection to peace, remembrance, and dreams (literally, they’re tied to sleep). So whether you’re out there winning or deep in dreamland, your flowers totally get you.

September: Aster, Morning Glory

September babies, your birth flowers are here to inspire you to tackle each new day with gusto. Asters symbolize love, faith, and wisdom—basically, a reminder to trust yourself and shine on. Morning glories bring refreshing morning energy, representing renewal and embracing every single day with purpose. As autumn rolls in, these blooms keep your energy high and your goals even higher.

October: Marigold, Cosmo

October birth flowers seriously reflect the spooky season and spiritual vibe. Marigolds are bold and fiery, symbolizing passion, happiness, and a connection to the afterlife (hello, Día de los Muertos icons). Cosmos bring balance, harmony, and a reminder that we’re all part of something bigger — like the cosmos! These flowers are the perfect mix of mystical and meaningful.

November: Chrysanthemum, Peony

Equal parts wholesome and glamorous, November’s birth flowers remind us to be thankful everyday for our amazing relationships. Chrysanthemums are the ultimate fall blooms (literally nicknamed the Queen of Fall Flowers), symbolizing friendships that last, faithfulness, and pure joy. Meanwhile, peonies bring a little romance to the mix, representing love, abundance, prosperity, and the best luck in marriage.

December: Holly, Narcissus

December babies, your birth flowers are here to celebrate and inspire. Holly brings joy, protection, and holiday magic (because honestly, December is the most festive and wonderful time of the year). Narcissus reminds you to embrace self-love, renewal, and fresh starts—because stepping into a new year deserves a confident mindset.
