What flowers bring missfortune to actors?

Answer 1

Two superstitions I know of are:

1) It is considered bad luck to give actors a bouquet of flowers BEFORE a performance. They should be given afterwards.

2) It's bad luck to use real flowers onstage during a performance.

Answer 2

In many cultures, it is considered bad luck to give actors flowers as they are seen as a symbol of admiration and appreciation, and presenting them to actors is believed to jinx their performance. In particular, some actors avoid being given bouquets of lilies, as they are commonly associated with funerals and may bring bad luck.
