Ornamental Plants That Symbolise Reunion & Family | September 2025

As we approach Mid-Autumn Festival and other family-centric celebrations, it’s the perfect time to reflect on what brings us together—love, warmth, and reunion. Beyond mooncakes and lanterns, plants can also play a symbolic role in expressing these values.

At Katong Flower Shop, we believe plants can say what words sometimes cannot. Here are some meaningful ornamental plants that represent reunion and family bonds, perfect for gifting or decorating your home during festive seasons.

1. Lucky Bamboo – Harmony & Unity

Despite its name, Lucky Bamboo isn’t bamboo at all—but it’s one of the most popular plants symbolising harmony and balance in relationships.

• Often arranged in groupings of 2, 3, or 5 stalks

• Easy to care for and brings calming energy

💡 Fun tip: A bundle of 5 stalks represents health, wealth, love, luck, and happiness—all things a family cherishes!
