In a cultural and historical context, flowers attract not only for their beauty, but also for their amazing ability to convey emotions and hidden messages. At different times and nations, they have become a means of communication a long time, already known as the «language of flowers». Each of them, even the smallest buttercup-dandelion, has a secret meaning. And we will reveal the secrets of the most popular flowers in floristry.
Roses
The recognized queen of flowers and the most intense symbol of love and passion. If you want to express your deep adoration and romantic feelings, order a bouquet of fiery red roses. Pink roses express tenderness, warmth and gratitude. White roses symbolize purity and virtue.
Lilies
This imperial flower is an imposing symbol of luxury. Its beauty is flawless, its symbolism is ambiguous. Each color conveys its own unique message. For example, a white lily symbolizes sincerity and innocence of the soul, while a red lily expresses passion and love.
Tulips
A gorgeous flower that is a symbolic messenger of spring, awakening feelings and beginnings. The enchanting color scheme of tulips brings energetic semantic flows of a wide range of emotions. A yellow tulip is joy, friendship, radiant mood; red - passionate attraction and explosion of feelings; purple tulip – mystery and riddles.
Orchids
Splendor, luxury and sophistication. This flower is associated with exoticism and sophistication. All the variety of orchid colors dictates a voluminous vocabulary of feelings. For example, a pink orchid symbolizes femininity, tender affection and sensuality.
Irises
The noble iris is a symbol of wisdom, faith and hope. It carries the symbolic potential of spiritual growth and harmony. Each color will say something different. While the blue iris expresses loyalty and insight, the yellow iris conveys joy and optimism.
Of course, everything is individual. The translation of the «language of flowers» into the language of feelings may differ somewhat in the cultural traditions of different countries, and historical eras make their own adjustments. These characteristics can be taken into account when choosing flowers for a gift or as decoration for events, but the most important thing is to let yourself be guided by your feelings.
