What does a flower symbolize?

The symbolism of flowers emphasizes their connection with the cycle of life and death. A flower is a symbol of fleetingness, brevity of being, spring, beauty, perfection, innocence, youth, soul. Every woman likes receiving a gorgeous bouquet of wonderful flowers.

A flower is the brightest manifestation of vitality, it is an image of the joys of life. In Hinduism, the laying of a bouquet of flowers on the altar is intended to convey to the deity the "breath of life." The image of a blossoming flower can symbolize the realization of potential opportunities (the opening lotus flower as a self-disclosure of the world), spiritual evolution.

In Buddhism, flowers are laid in front of the Buddha image as a sign of understanding the mortality of being. Wreaths of flowers, which the Greeks and Romans adorned themselves, symbolizing at the same time the eternity of the universe and the transience of separate existence. Flowers on graves remind of the joys of human life and its transience.

Flowers are associated with love (as they bloom in spring) and beauty.  Different colors have their own meaning; carnation represents passion, lily - purity. The most “symbolically loaded” flowers are a rose and a lily in the western tradition, lotus and chrysanthemum in the eastern. There is a whole language of flowers.
