Flower Horoscope: Which Flowers to Give a Libra

This article was prepared with the support of UFL flower delivery. Libra is the sign of people born between 23 September and 23 October. Astrologers describe them as aesthetes who value harmony, beauty and balance. The flower horoscope is not science but a charming tradition that can spark a gift idea when you do not know someone's taste well. The main rule stays the same: the best bouquet is the one the recipient will love.

Universal flowers for Libra

• Hydrangea: its lush flower heads stand for generosity and peace of mind, and its season coincides with Libra birthdays. See our hydrangea bouquets.
• Orchid: a symbol of elegance and refined taste, suitable both as a cut flower and in a pot. See orchids with delivery.
• Rose: the classic of beauty and love. For Libra, astrologers suggest soft pastel shades such as powder pink, cream and peach. Browse our roses.

Libra flowers by birth date

• 23 September – 3 October: heather. It is said to help keep calm and good-natured. Sprigs of heather look lovely in autumn arrangements and baskets.
• 4–13 October: camellia. The flower of charm and artistry. Cut camellias are rare, so replace them with a peony-shaped rose or give a potted plant.
• 14–23 October: lilac. A symbol of determination and first love. Lilac is not sold in autumn, but lilac-coloured chrysanthemums or asters make a good substitute. See chrysanthemums.

Some flower horoscopes also link Libra with calendula (pot marigold) and violets, sunny and delicate flowers that look lovely in small bouquets and pots.

How to put together a bouquet for Libra

Libras value harmony, so a balanced arrangement in 2–3 shades works better than a colourful mix. Good pairings include white hydrangeas with cream roses and eucalyptus, powder-pink roses with lilac chrysanthemums, or a Phalaenopsis orchid in a stylish pot. In autumn you can add decorative berries, asters and dahlias.

Houseplants for Libra

According to the flower horoscope, Libra suits Indian azalea, Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera), plumed celosia, Japanese aralia (Fatsia), croton (Codiaeum), hibiscus, ornamental pepper and small-flowered chrysanthemums. The Christmas cactus blooms in winter and is seen as a plant of cosiness, while the chrysanthemum symbolises balance.

Note that azalea and croton are toxic and ornamental pepper fruits are very hot, so in a home with children or pets choose a safe Christmas cactus or hibiscus. Pick a plant among our houseplants.
