Mother's Day Fun Facts

Everyone would probably know May 10th is dedicated to our amazing moms this year in Singapore but did you know there are some fun facts behind this special day? Let Little Florist Dream share with you some fascinating information of this tradition. 

1. There isn't the same date for Mother's Day each year.

People celebrate this occasion on the second Sunday of May, and this year it's on May 10th. 

2. Ancient Greece held the earliest celebrations for mothers. 

That's right! In honour of Rhea, the goddess of motherhood and fertility, there would be a celebration every spring. 

3. On Mother's Day, others get the appreciation, too! 

Traditionally, moms are the ones who receive cards and flowers from their children. But recently, the tradition of gift-giving extends to wives, sisters, mother-in-law, and grandmothers. It's incredible to see people spread the love! 

4. Carnations have specific meanings on Mother's Day 

Historically, pink or red carnations are used to honour mothers on this holiday. White carnations are meant to remember a mother who passed away. 

5. Cards and Flowers are the most popular gifts for Mother's Day 

Apart from other occasions such as Valentine's, the florist industry sees a spike in demands for their service during this period. Especially in a peculiar time such as this, a beautiful home-delivered bouquet with lovely card will show your mom how much you care for her.
