6. Giving the wrong flowers – France
It’s odd to think that giving flowers to someone could create an uncomfortable situation, but it happens. If for instance you’re invited for dinner, it’s customary to send flowers in the morning so they can be displayed in the evening.
But what type of flowers? And how many? It should always be an odd number, but not 13 which is considered to be unlucky. Don’t give chrysanthemums or lilies as they’re used for funerals. Other flowers to avoid include: yellow flowers since they mean infidelity and white ones since they are only for weddings.
