These are the birth flowers most commonly listed in the United States and United Kingdom, a Victorian-era tradition connected with the “language of flowers”. Some months have one flower, others two.

Are there official zodiac flowers?

No. Zodiac flower lists are recent and vary from source to source, often matching flower colors to the sign’s colors or planet. The month birth flowers above are the more established tradition, so this page links each sign to the birth flowers of its own dates.

Frequently asked questions

What is the December zodiac flower?

December’s birth flowers are narcissus (paperwhite) and holly, covering late Sagittarius and early Capricorn.

What flower represents Leo?

Leo (July 23 to August 22) falls under July’s larkspur and water lily and August’s gladiolus and poppy; sunflowers and marigolds are also popular choices because of Leo’s link with the Sun.
