FYI- Flower meanings:
Sunflower Flower Symbolism

The flower symbolism associated with sunflowers is adoration. Sunflowers turn their heads to the sun, which is the origin of their common name. Sunflowers belong to the genus helianthus, a reference to Helios, the sun god. Sunflowers are native to the Americas and are the state flower of Kansas.Cultivated sunflowers can reach an incredible twenty feet in height. Sunflowers are one of the fastest growing plants in the world, increasing in height up to one foot a day. These lofty heights have resulted in the sunflower being symbolic of haughtiness as well as adoration.

Rose Flower Symbolism

The flower symbolism associated with roses is love, remembrance, passion (red); purity (white); happiness (pink); infidelity (yellow); unconscious beauty, I love you. Roses were first cultivated 5,000 years ago in Asian gardens. Confucius wrote that the emperor of China owned over 600 books on the cultivation of roses. Roses were introduced to Europe during the Roman Empire and were thereafter used for ornamental purposes. Roses are emblems of England and New York City. This name was in use throughout the Middle Ages (long before herb and flower names became popular) and probably originated as a short form of longer Germanic names containing the word hrod, meaning "horse."

Morning Glory Flower Symbolism

The flower symbolism associated with the morning glory is affection. As the name implies, morning glory flowers, which are funnel-shaped, open in the morning, allowing them to be pollinated by hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, other daytime insects and birds. The flower typically lasts for a single morning and dies in the afternoon. New flowers bloom each day.

Daisy Flower Symbolism

The flower symbolism associated with the daisy is purity, innocence, loyal love, beauty, patience and simplicity. Daisies are often depicted in meadows in Medieval paintings, also known as a "flowery mead." Daisies are believed to be more than 4,000 years old and hairpins decorated with daisies were found during the excavation of the Minoan Palace on the Island of Crete. Even further back, Egyptian ceramics were decorated with daisies. The English name is derived from the flower name, from Old English dægeseage, "day's eye."

Gerbera Daisies Symbolism

These flowers stand for more than happiness, but they are a classic symbol of beauty and wonder. They are very bright and cheerful; however, they also can mean things like innocents, love, and appreciation. When it comes to the colors you’ll find that white is for purity and innocent. Red stands for passion and love. Yellow stands for cheerful, while pink stand for appreciation. You’ll want to keep in mind that these daisies do have a way of expressing your thoughts and feelings, but you’ll also find that they are distinctly bright and cheerful.
