Symbolic flowers
Some flowers are symbolically associated with healing, illness or support in the fight against diseases such as breast cancer.
Sunflower
The sunflower symbolises positivity, strength and hope. Its ability to turn towards the sunlight makes it a metaphor for resilience in the face of hardship. It is usually chosen in bouquets to bring joy and moral support to people battling illness.
Lavender
