Is the 4th wedding anniversary gift flowers/fruit or linen/paper?

I've read on some things that it's flowers and fruit, but other sources say it's linen and paper... I know that the modern gift is appliances...but I'm talking about the traditional gift.

Is the 4th wedding anniversary gift flowers/fruit or linen/paper?
According to a list I found in Brides magazine, both flowers and linen are listed as traditional 4th anniversary gifts.
Reply:Linen or silk
Reply:linen(some places include paper)
