Every flower has a history and every flower symbolizes something. Often the history and symbols are confusing and contradictory but they are still fascinating. If your birthday is in the month of June, your flower is the rose. Here is the story and language of your flower.
The Linguistic Roots for the Name Rose
The Latin name for the rose, rosa, literally means red. Diana Wells suggests that saying that rose means red is like saying the heart is a muscle situated on the left side of the rib cage, it is an incomplete understanding of what the blossom symbolizes.
History of the Flower
Quite possibly the most popular flower in the history of the world, the rose has a multitude of legends and myths surrounding it. A flower of such prominence must be related to the gods of our world or at least one would think so when considering the wealth of otherworldly associations attached to the blossom. Was the smile of Amor the source of our first rose or did it fall from the hair of the goddess of dawn, Aurora?
The sweet scent and frowsy beauty of the blossom resulted in it being popular among the rulers of this world. The infamous Cleopatra had her pillows filled with rose petals. Romans used petals to decorate their feasts and even had canopies filled to shower petals upon the guests. Sometimes the Romans love of roses became too much and the shower of petals would actually smother guests.
The Symbolism of Roses
Jewish legends attributed the color of the rose to the first blood that darkened the earths soil. The Teutons believed the rose was a symbol of the underworld and called their battlefields rose gardens.

Hello Missy HardcoreCountryChick
thanks for the add.
The April flower is the daisy. Daisies are associated with innocence. The gerbera daisy has large colorful blooms, which has made it a favorite with flower lovers. There is a legend that a nymph wanting to escape unwanted attention, transformed herself into the daisy. Ever after this the April birth flower has the flower meaning of implicity and modesty. An alternate birth flower for April is the sweet pea.
The Gerbera Daisy is a perennial favorite. This daisy and April birth flower is a wonderful flower to design boquets with as it can be the focal point or an accent. The Gerbera Daisy is actually a perennial herb native to South Africa. The Gerbera Daisy is also known as the African Daisy, Transvaal Daisy, Gerb, and Barberton Daisy. It is one of the most popular cut flowers.

Daffodils form a group of large-flowered members of the genus Narcissus. Most Daffodils look yellow, but yellow-and-white, yellow-and-orange, white-and-orange, pink, and lime-green cultivars also exist. Daffodils grow perennially from bulbs. In temperate climates they flower among the earliest blooms in spring: to this extent Daffodils both represent and herald spring. They often grow in large clusters, covering lawns and even entire hillsides with yellow.

The warm, deep color of the Iris is a reminder of the luxuries of spring, as we know February has long been a month known for romance and love. The Iris comes a few colors including cool blue and snowy white, remembrances of winter. The Iris flower meanings are faith, wisdom, and hope.
