Diwali Flowers

Diwali is a “festival of lights” that celebrates the triumph of light over dark and good over evil, and the blessings of victory, freedom, and enlightenment. The name comes from Sanksrit dipavali, meaning “row of lights.” On the night of Diwali, celebrants light dozens of candles and clay lamps, called diyas, placing them throughout their homes and in the streets to light up the dark night.

In most of India, Diwali consists of a five-day celebration that peaks on the third day with the main festival of Diwali. In other places where Diwali occurs, usually, only the main day is celebrated.

The main celebration of Diwali takes place on the day of the new Moon, when the sky is at its darkest, so a big part of the celebration revolves around light. Candles, clay lamps, and oil lanterns are lit and placed throughout the home, in the streets, in areas of worship, and floated on lakes and rivers. Fireworks are also set off on the night of Diwali - said by some to ward off evil spirits.

Different types of flowers are used for Diwali rituals and home decoration purposes. Without flowers, Diwali is almost incomplete. You can’t fulfill your home decor without lights and flowers. To make someone happy with unique Diwali gifts, you can choose a beautifully designed flower bouquet from our collection of bright sunflowers, roses, chrysanthemums, lilies, and more. Overall, flowers have become an integral part of the Diwali celebration in India and all over the world. Beautiful flowers bring happiness with their divine appearance and vibrant colours.

How many days is Diwali celebrated over?

Diwali, the festival of lights, is celebrated over five days. The first day is known as Dhanteras. People clean their houses and go shopping for gold or kitchenware to attract good luck. On the second day, also known as Naraka Chaturdasi or Choti Diwali, people adorn their houses with clay lamps and draw rangoli designs on the floor using coloured sand or powder. The festival's main day is the third, when families do Lakshmi puja, a prayer to Goddess Lakshmi, and enjoy delectable feasts. The fourth day is dedicated to the Govardhan Puja, commemorating the first day of the New Year, and is when friends and family come to visit with gifts and seasonal greetings. The last and most important day is Bhai Dooj or Bhau Beej, honouring the unique relationship between brothers and sisters. When brothers visit their married sisters, they are lavishly welcomed and served tasty food.

What flowers represent Diwali?
