Flower characters soften headings, frame names and add a natural motif to short messages.
Sun, sky and season marks. Good for forecasts, journals and seasonal notes. That amounts to 21 copyable values here — 18 of them one character long, 3 longer.
Names such as Black Florette, Eight Petalled Outlined Black Florette, Heavy Teardrop-Spoked Asterisk, Flower appear here, and counting every entry puts Black Florette (4), White Florette (4), Six Petalled Black (4) at the top. Single-character values span U+2698 to U+1FAB7.

Single-character entries cover U+2698 to U+1FAB7, breaking down by general category as symbol 16, letter 2.
Counted across the stored entries, the commonest name patterns are Black Florette (4), White Florette (4), Six Petalled Black (4).
3 entries span more than one code point: 0 with a zero-width joiner, 0 with a variation selector, the longest running to 3 code points.
Two look almost the same: Heavy Teardrop-Spoked Asterisk and Heavy Eight Teardrop-Spoked Propeller Asterisk. They are different characters: U+273D and U+274B. Start with symbol.
It is the biggest group, with 8. Letter is the specialist choice, with just 2. Want colour?
Pick one of the 8 emoji. Want it to match your text? Pick one of the 13 plain ones.
Test the result in the real app before you use it.
We sort these by job rather than by Unicode category, so one group can hold several formal types.
Standalone marks that follow your font. 38% here.
Colour artwork, supplied by the platform. 38% here.
Several characters copied in a fixed order. 14% here.
Letterforms borrowed for their shape. 10% here.

There are 21 flower symbols here. All of them copy in one click. Most of them, 8 in all, are symbol. They come mostly from one part of Unicode: Dingbats. 13 are plain text. The other 8 are emoji, so your phone or computer draws them in colour.
They split into symbol, letter and emoji or pictograph. Symbol leads with 8.
They come from Dingbats (16), Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs (6) and Miscellaneous Symbols (1). They span U+2698 to U+1FAB7, so no one font covers them all.
Heavy Teardrop-Spoked Asterisk and Heavy Eight Teardrop-Spoked Propeller Asterisk look alike. They are not the same character.
3 use more than one character. Copy the whole thing or it breaks.
The vocabulary below comes from the formal names and groupings of these flower symbols.
Typographic flower ornaments create a general floral mood, while emoji may suggest a particular bloom without guaranteeing botanical accuracy.
| Forms | Visual role | Meaning check |
|---|---|---|
| ✿ ❀ ❁ | Monochrome flower ornaments | Useful as bullets, separators and decorative framing. |
| ⚘ ❃ ❋ | Special flower and ornament forms | Formal Unicode names may describe shape rather than a species. |
| 🌸 🌼 🌻 | Blossom, generic flower and sunflower emoji | Cultural and seasonal associations change by audience. |
| 🌺 🪷 | Hibiscus and lotus emoji | Do not make botanical or religious claims from artwork alone. |
Practical note: Choose by tone for invitations and profiles. Use a species name and reviewed image when exact plant identification matters.
Compare these choices with nature symbols and heart symbols. For a deeper explanation, read Heart Symbol Meanings: ♡, ♥, ❤ and Beyond. If one question is enough, read can i change the color of a unicode symbol?.
Tip: Keep the plain words next to the symbol. Text is what makes a design searchable and readable to someone using a screen reader.

Copying stores text, so the value survives the clipboard intact. Paste it with Ctrl V, ⌘ V or your device's Paste command.
Start with Black Florette. It works nearly everywhere.
Symbol suits seasonal captions and invitations. Pick one whose stroke weight matches the text around it.
When creating nature-themed names and dividers, paste the complete entry — several of these are multi-code-point sequences that break if truncated.

Copying is quicker, but these are typeable too. On Windows the alt code is the character's decimal code point; in Word the hexadecimal followed by Alt X does the same job without a keypad.
| Character | Name | Windows | Hex | HTML |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ✿ | Black Florette | Alt 10047 | 273F | ✿ |
| ❁ | Eight Petalled Outlined Black Florette | Alt 10049 | 2741 | ❁ |
| ✽ | Heavy Teardrop-Spoked Asterisk | Alt 10045 | 273D | ✽ |
| ⚘ | Flower | Alt 9880 | 2698 | ⚘ |
| ❋ | Heavy Eight Teardrop-Spoked Propeller Asterisk | Alt 10059 | 274B | ❋ |
| ꕥ | Vai Syllable Zha | Alt 42341 | A565 | ꕥ |
Alt codes reach only the first 65,536 code points, and only from a numeric keypad. 8 entries here sit above that ceiling. A further 3 are sequences, which no shortcut reproduces — copy those instead. The complete keyboard guide covers every platform method in full.

Unicode keeps 70% of these in Dingbats. The rest come from Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs and Miscellaneous Symbols. 13 act like letters.
They take the colour of the text around them. The other 8 are emoji, so the system picks their colour, not you. Unicode files the emoji ones under Animals & Nature and Activities.
3 entries are made of several parts. Copy the whole thing, or it breaks apart. Some are as recent as Emoji 14.0, so old devices may draw an empty box.
A pasted entry is redrawn by the receiving application's font. Expect small differences in width and weight across devices, and larger ones where a font lacks the character entirely.
07
Treating Black Florette and Eight Petalled Outlined Black Florette as the same character.
Thinking every one of the 21 works the same everywhere.
Copying only part of one of the 3 multi-code-point sequences instead of the whole value.
Reaching for one of the 8 emoji entries where a text mark was needed, so the colour artwork clashes with the surrounding type.
08
U+273D is Heavy Teardrop-Spoked Asterisk; U+274B is Heavy Eight Teardrop-Spoked Propeller Asterisk. Because the encoded identity differs, substituting one for the other can change what a reader or a piece of software understands.
Write ✿ (hex) or ✿ (decimal) to get ✿. Numeric references sidestep encoding problems in older toolchains.
Look for the 13 non-emoji entries. Those behave like letters — style them, colour them, put them in a heading. The 8 emoji entries are drawn by the operating system instead.
3 entries here are sequences of more than one code point. If the destination does not support the sequence, or if the copy was truncated, the parts render individually. Copy the entry with the button rather than by selecting the characters.
Dingbats holds most of them — 16 characters; the rest come from Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs and Miscellaneous Symbols. Coverage tends to follow the block: long-established ones render nearly everywhere, recent additions do not.
The newest entry on this page was introduced in Emoji 14.0. Devices that have not received a font update since then will show a blank rectangle instead. Test on a real older device before using a recent character where the meaning matters.
09
These marks are often used to head a seasonal note or a journal entry, which is where a styled heading or a text status frame is useful.
Pair a flower symbol with styled letters in the Symbol Maker. Every tool on this site runs locally and is listed in the Unicode tools hub.

Every figure on this page is computed from the stored inventory of 21 entries. Names, general categories and code points are generated from the Unicode 17.0 character database rather than typed by hand; emoji membership is read from the emoji data files published alongside it.
Try “heart”, “check”, “moon” or paste a symbol.
