Well Venus flytraps grow flowers too... although in general you should never let a cultivated one attempt to flower, as the strain on the plant will frequently kill it.

Persocom01, were you perhaps researching European flower language? Japanese flower language often has different meanings. Since I like this sort of thing, I decided to do some sleuthing. I can't really read japanese but checking around on a variety of different hanakotoba-related sites and articles (with use of google translate) suggests that gerberas in general carry a meaning of hope, but the white gerbera most of all!
