Dear Smt. Sukanya Shankar 
 
Below is the meaning of the ashta-vidha pushpam slokam:
I am forwarding this to Oppiliappan List also for the information of members.
 
Dasan
Krishnaswamy
Non-injury (ahmisa) is the primary flower, 
the next one being Control of the senses;
Kindness to all creatures is a flower,
with Forgiveness an especially important one.
Meditation is a flower, Austerity is a flower, 
Wisdom is a flower as well;
Truth is the last of these eight flowers
which are extremely dear, pleasing to Vishnu.
These eight flowers are pleasing to Vishnu Bhagawan:
1.     non-injury to all God's creation    Ahimsa  
2.      Control of senses  indriyaNigraha
3.      Compassion towards all beings  dayaa
4.      Forgiveness   Kshama
5.      Meditation   Dhyanam
6.      Austerity   Tapah
7.      Knowledge, Wisdom   Gnyanam
8.      Truth   Satyam

Divya Ramanan had mentioned about eight flowers.
Below is a sanskrit sloka about the eight flowers.
The slokam is in picture format to display the fonts properly.
Hope it is reproduced completely.
