white lilies symbolize chastity and virtue – and were the symbol of the Virgin Mary’s purity and her role of Queen of the Angels – as other varieties became popular, they brought with them additional meanings and symbolism as well. Peruvian lilies, or alstroemeria, represent friendship and devotion, white stargazer lilies express sympathy and pink stargazer lilies represent wealth and prosperity. Symbolizing humility and devotion, lilies are the 30th anniversary flower - while lilies of the valley are the 2nd wedding anniversary flower. |

"I much prefer Lollies.
Pissed me off a bit when people cut flowers to stick them in a vase but I suppose they were going to die anyway."
I miss my garden. I used to have lillies and lots of other flowers in tubs. Id spend hours out there sat on my bench n looking at them.
Now I'm in my flat I buy cut flowers. Although I am pondering buying an orchid atm.
