- The Essence of Flowers |
The enchanting
essence and ethereal beauty of flowers
has fascinated humans since time immemorial.
Somewhere along the way people began saying
it with flowers when they couldn't find
the words to explain how they felt. Even
today people turn to flowers when unable
to express their deepest emotions. A gift
of flowers is greatly appreciated not
just for its beauty but because it has
the power to lift one's spirits. |

Flowers are
an integral part of life in every culture
around the world. No wedding is complete
without flowers. In the West the wedding
venue is flooded with flowers. The bride
and her bridesmaids carry bouquets while
the groom and others in the wedding party
wear flowers as boutonnieres and corsages.
In some Eastern cultures the bride and
groom are wedded under a canopy of flowers.
Most brides wear floral garlands or have
flowers in their hair. |

The red rose
is universally considered the enduring
symbol of love. When a man hands a woman
a red rose, he doesn't need to explain
how he feels. Also frequently used to
express love and admiration are red carnations,
chrysanthemums and tulips. Gifting flowers
is the preferred way to share in the happiness
of someone celebrating a birthday, an
anniversary, a wedding or the birth of
a child. White flowers, which are associated
with purity, are commonly used to express
condolences on someone's death. | |

Each flower
carries a subtle message - some flattering
and others not. The language of flowers
is complicated and there is little agreement
on their meanings. A daisy is believed
to represent innocence and a single daffodil
misfortune. But a bunch of daffodils represents
happiness. Except a few though, most flowers
are today chosen merely for their beauty. |

There are
also birthflowers associated with each
month. Carnation and snowdrop representing
constancy are the birthflowers for January;
violet and primrose denoting sincerity
for February; jonquil and daffodil representing
courage for March; sweet pea and daisy
denoting innocence for April; lily of
the valley representing love for May;
rose and honeysuckle denoting health for
June; larkspur and water lily representing
contentment for July; gladiolus and poppy
denoting happiness for August; aster and
morning glory representing clear thinking
for September; marigold denoting hope
for October; chrysanthemum representing
fidelity for November; and finally narcissus
and holly denoting prosperity for December. |
