How to create a birth flower tattoo

1
Pick the months
Tap your birth month in the generator: it shows the flower, its second flower, its meaning and the designs on this page. For a family bouquet, tick one month per person.
2
Send the flower, not just the month
The generator writes the name of the flower for TatuaIA, for example "a sprig of lily of the valley, May birth flower, fine line". You can add a name, a ribbon or a date there.
3
Adjust and download
Tap Edit to make it slimmer for the forearm or to add a name or a date, or Try again for a new version. Download the design and show it to your artist.

Birth flower chart by month

This is the list used by The Old Farmer's Almanac, with the meanings it gives for each month. Birth flowers are a tradition, not a rule: other lists swap a few flowers, and many people simply choose the one they like best.

January: carnation (also snowdrop) · love, fascination, hope
February: violet (also primrose) · modesty, loyalty, youthfulness
March: daffodil (also jonquil) · new beginnings, rebirth, prosperity
April: daisy (also sweet pea) · innocence, purity, gratitude
May: lily of the valley (also hawthorn) · happiness, sweetness, hope
June: rose (also honeysuckle) · love, passion, affection
July: larkspur (also water lily) · positivity, lightness, purity
August: gladiolus (also poppy) · strength, remembrance, peace
September: aster (also morning glory) · patience, love, affection
October: marigold (also cosmos) · creativity, passion, joy
November: chrysanthemum · friendship, loyalty, honesty
December: narcissus (also holly) · rebirth, hope, protection

Family bouquets, styles and placement

The most requested version is a bouquet with one flower per family member: two to five stems tied with a ribbon still read well on the forearm or the back of the shoulder. Long single stems (gladiolus, larkspur, lily of the valley) suit the inner forearm, the ribs or a line down the spine; one small bloom fits the wrist or ankle. Fine line keeps it delicate; watercolor works for flowers known for their color, like marigold or poppy. Want the date too? Add it in Roman numerals with our Roman numeral tattoo generator, or a name from our name tattoo ideas. Other symbolic ideas: the Morse code tattoo generator and the coordinates tattoo generator.

Frequently asked questions

What is my birth flower?

January carnation, February violet, March daffodil, April daisy, May lily of the valley, June rose, July larkspur, August gladiolus, September aster, October marigold, November chrysanthemum and December narcissus. Most months also have a second flower (see the chart above).

Does the generator know my birth flower?

Yes: pick your birth month and it shows the flower from The Old Farmer's Almanac list, its second flower and its meaning. It then sends TatuaIA the name of the flower ("a daffodil, March birth flower"), not just the month, because the AI draws what you describe.

Can I combine the birth flowers of my family?

Yes: describe them together, for example "a small bouquet of a carnation, a rose and an aster tied with a ribbon, fine line". If one flower doesn't look right, ask for a change with Edit.

Is the design unique?

Yes: TatuaIA doesn't pull designs from a catalog, it draws each one from scratch based on your description. Even if you repeat the same sentence you get a different version every time, and with Edit you can make it even more yours.

How much does it cost?

With TatuaIA your first designs are free (with a small watermark). To create without limits, edit and download without the watermark there's TatuaIA Pro, a subscription you'll see priced for your country in the app and can cancel anytime. The price of the actual tattoo is set by the studio: it depends on size, placement and hours of work.
