daisy.

ㅤㅤㅤDaisy flower meaning includes new beginnings, hope, innocence, fun, affection, and other sweet attributes. The modern English word daisy comes from an Old English word that’s impossible to spell and next to impossible to pronounce. The important thing is that the Old English word meant “day’s eye” because daisy flowers only opened during the daytime. Daisies have bright, sunny faces and symbolism associated with cheerfulness, warmth, and joy.

ㅤㅤㅤDaisy flowers grow all over the world and have a long list of symbolic meanings. They symbolize new beginnings and rebirth, in addition to love, cheerfulness, beauty, purity, innocence, hope, fun, and affection. They’re also given to new mothers as a symbol of childbirth and motherhood. By the time April arrives, spring is in full bloom in most parts of the country. The April birth flower is the cheerful, colorful daisy. 

ㅤㅤㅤThere are many meanings assigned to the gentle daisy — including innocence, happiness, good luck and new beginnings. In Victorian times, daisies stood for loyalty and trust. There is also a story in Roman mythology of a nymph named Belides who transformed herself into a daisy to escape from unwanted attention. This myth gave daisies the additional meanings of modesty and innocence.
