Carnations have come to represent Mother's Day,
This also started the custom of wearing a carnation on Mother's Day.
In part due to the shortage of white carnations,
and in part due to the efforts to expand the sales of more types of flowers in Mother's Day,
the florists promoted wearing a red carnation if your mother was living,
or a white one if she was dead.
For the most part, carnations express love, fascination, and distinction. Light red carnations represent admiration, while dark red denote deep love and affection. White carnations indicate pure love and good luck; striped symbolize a regret that a love cannot be shared. Green carnations are for St. Patrick's Day; purple carnations indicate capriciousness. Pink carnations have the most symbolic and historical significance.
