There is no specific flower used at a funeral for a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). Many families will request flowers of the favorite color of the deceased. It is also very common for families to request donations to a charity rather than flowers. If you are planning on sending flowers for the funeral of a deceased Mormon, the family will probably appreciate anything, although you may want to contact them and see if they have any special requests.
Mormons have very few religous requirements when it comes to funerals, and generally follow the wishes and cultural customs of the family. The only things that may be unique compared to other westernized funerals are that the deceased is typically buried dressed in white and the gravesite is ofted dedicated and blessed by the Priesthood.
