A brief history of funeral flowers.

It is believed that the first funeral flowers were used at American President Andrew Jackson's funeral in 1874 to hide the smell of decay during the funeral. Evidence of the presence of floral traces, including cornflower, blue grape, hollyhock and thistle, has been found in the skeleton of a Neanderthal left behind 60 - 80,000 years ago.

In the 19th century, "ladies of flowers" were responsible for carrying flowers from the funeral home to the procession and arranging the flowers in the cemetery for the families. This was considered as important as the role of the porters.

Funeral flowers are used in various ways, such as during a vigil in the funeral home and religious services in a church or synagogue. They are also placed on graves and draped over the coffin.
