Gladiolus

Gladiolus is a good flower choice when someone has a broken heart. Another name for this flower is the sword lily because its name comes from the Latin word that means small sword. This flower is associated with sadness, remembrance, and death. It also often appears in more positive situations that call for symbols of integrity, strength, and honor. Since they have positive correlations, they work well in the context of death. This is because these are traits that many hope the dead have when facing the afterlife.
