Pink flowers
Pink flowers are used as a symbol of love and awareness. For decades, pink flowers have been used to decorate weddings as a symbol of love. They can also be used as a display of love at funerals, as demonstrated at the funeral for Anna Nicole Smith.
More recently, pink flowers have come to symbolize breast cancer awareness.
They may also be used as an expression of thanks, or just enjoyed for their aesthetic beauty.Species
