we were debating about this with my friend (yeah, we talk about the damnest sh*t LOL) and i came down with a Q: isn't it insulting to flowers' beauty to give some such depressing meanings -i mean if you're bringing some to a funeral or wedding, you can use common sense on the color range... hmm dunno :/
Lily(Yuri) means lesbian in Japanese slang. They are gays, aren't they? Haha...
Lily has strong smell so that we can't bring to the hospital for the patients, but it's ok as a conventional present. And yes, the death flower is chrysanthemum and red spider lily.
@android09 Does it really matter? A lily is a lily.Stereotyping exists for flowers too?
It's called symbolism.
man, that's kinda grim.
aren't white lilies something you bring to a funeral?
