Step 1 : Introduction to the question "What is the official flower of Mother’s Day?"
...The carnation has long been recognized as the official flower of Mother’s Day. Anna Jarvis, who helped establish Mother’s Day, selected white carnations to honor her late mother because she believed the flower symbolized purity, love, devotion, and faithfulness. Over time, the tradition expanded, with red or pink carnations often worn to honor living mothers and white carnations used in remembrance of mothers who had passed away. The flower soon became an enduring symbol of love and appreciation during Mother's Day celebrations.
