Appropriate flowers for Indian Lady?

Hi, the guy who has been making some costumes for me has a wife (Indian Lady) who is very poorly and I would like to take her some flowers when I collect my costumes, what sort would be correct, as I know in British culture that certain flowers have particular meanings, eg red roses (love) white roses (eternity) Lillies for funerals etc etc and if there are similar traditions in India I would not like to upset her by giving her something inappropriate. so any suggestions please.
Appropriate flowers for Indian Lady?
Here is a website within India that explains the meaning of each type of flower, I hope it is helpful to you.

Reply:Honeysuckle, bluebells, daffodils. I think they'd be appropriate. I think I've managed to copy the link correctly (first time!) but check out the website anyway:

It gives the meaning of various flowers. Luckx



EDIT: Jesus - what are some of you like? Bambi only wants to make sure she's not insulting this lady, hence the question. There is absolutely NO NEED for responding in a negative manner. If you CAN'T answer the question positively DON'T answer at all - and certainly not with insults!

Reply:Hey girl I say go with whatever you want. She'd be happy that you thought about her enough to get her flowers. Just think what would you get your mother and get the same for her. Oh by the way I think flowers sort of carry the same meaning throughout the world like red roses for example is a universal thing representing passion and love.
Reply:Sorry for the inappropriate comments made by an adviser below. He has proved his birth and upbringing as also his fitness to suggest on etiquette. I AM AN INDIAN. Brothers are allowed to present any flower to an Indian lady. If she is young, a single rose would be appropriate. Jasmine for the middle aged and above. A bouquet may also be good
Reply:You won't offend her by bringing her a bunch of flowers of all different kinds. Stop stressing this.
Reply:Hey there. I'm of Indian descent (parents are from India) and my female relatives love all types of exotic flowers; lillies, orchids, etc. They love garlands too. If you can find a water lily (loctus) you will be in good! It is the national flower; hope this helps! Good luck. Hey if you dont want to go that route, you can always try to make a good Indian dish such as tandoori chicken or anything spicy.
Reply:Why not just give her a lotus? They symbolize strength, respect, honor and prosperity in Indian culture.
Reply:in india all flowers are considered equal, you would see colourful carnations at weddings, parties and at funerals too...what ever the reason indians always use lots of 'colourful' flowers.

white flowers are not only for funerals, married indian ladies love decorating their hair with white jasmines.



i suggest give her a beautiful bouquet of colourfull flowers.

specially orange,yellow,magenta/pink flowers are a must.
Reply:White flowers are used at Indian funerals, so I would steer clear of those (especially if she is ill)
Reply:Jasmines or rajnigandha(don't know what they are called in English).
Reply:carnation
Reply:Same as you would buy anyone else!!!!!!!!!!
