The spread of carnations In May 1934, the United States issued its first Mother's Day commemorative stamp. On the stamp, a kind mother rested her hands on her knees, looking with joy at a bouquet of bright and beautiful carnations in the vase in front of her. With the spread of the stamps, Mother's Day became associated with carnations in many people's minds. Carnations then became the flower symbolizing maternal love and were respected by people.
