How to type flower symbols on a keyboard

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.

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.

06

How flower symbols render across fonts, apps and devices

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.

Common mistakes with flower symbols

  • 1

    Treating Black Florette and Eight Petalled Outlined Black Florette as the same character.

  • 2

    Thinking every one of the 21 works the same everywhere.

  • 3

    Copying only part of one of the 3 multi-code-point sequences instead of the whole value.

  • 4

    Reaching for one of the 8 emoji entries where a text mark was needed, so the colour artwork clashes with the surrounding type.

Flower Symbols questions and answers

What is the difference between Heavy Teardrop-Spoked Asterisk and Heavy Eight Teardrop-Spoked Propeller Asterisk?+

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.

What is the HTML code for black florette?+

Write ✿ (hex) or ✿ (decimal) to get ✿. Numeric references sidestep encoding problems in older toolchains.

Which flower symbols work as plain text rather than emoji?+

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.

Why does one of these flower symbols split apart when I paste it?+

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.

Which Unicode block are these flower symbols in?+

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.

Will these flower symbols work on older phones?+

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.
