The birth flowers for August are gladiolus and poppies. Gladiolus is known for its tall, vibrant flower spikes and symbolises strength and sincerity, while poppies are admired for their delicate beauty and the meanings of remembrance, peace, and imagination.
Correa (Native Fuchsia) is recognized in Australian native birth flower calendars as the specific birth flower for August. Meanwhile, varieties of Boronia (such as the Native Rose/Boronia serrulata) are tied to other specific months like February in regional collections, meaning they are separate native birth entries rather than a single combined symbol.
