CALLA LILY FLOWER - This flower is not technically part of the real lily family. Instead, it’s a different type of flower with a bloom similar to other true lilies. The most common meanings of this bloom include

  • Magnificent and overwhelming beauty, in the classic Victorian language of the flowers and the Ancient Greek tradition
  • Resurrection and rebirth, since the plant returns each year after the winter
  • Faith and purity, especially in the Christian religions
  • Overcoming challenges, since the cut flowers can start regrowing in a vase and survive frosts
  • The liveliness and innocence of youth.
