Flowers are given on any holiday and solemn occasion. You can just go and buy a duty bouquet of roses, and you can make a bouquet, taking into account the language of the colors of flowers and express your feelings in this way.
Meaning of flowers
Any flower should not be in the bouquet for nothing – each of them signifies something. In the Middle Ages, the symbolism of flowers was used very widely, as it was not considered very decent to express your feelings directly. In modern society it is not too important, but many people are interested in the language of flowers and will be able to understand what the giver wanted to say with his bouquet.
The symbolism of flower color is not the same for different plants. Therefore, you should first focus on the type of flower, and then on its color. Of course, there are universal colors like red, which in almost all cultures denotes love in the language of flowers. But as for other colors, then here already everything will be different.
For example, let’s take the well-known spring tulips. If you give a red tulip, it is a declaration of love, and a yellow flower will mean hopeless love.
What does the language of flowers mean for the humble carnation? According to its canons, the carnation is an expression of female love – this flower was given by girls to their loved ones before separation. The other carnation colors would be a variation on the love theme. Pink carnation is first love, red flower is all-consuming passion and admiration, yellow carnation is rejection, purple carnation is fickleness. Only the white carnation is a wish for success. This is the language of colors – its symbolism is often confusing and ambiguous.
Naturally, do not do without roses, which have become something of a classic of floral compositions
What does the language of flowers tell us about the meaning of the rose? It is multifaceted, but, in general, it is a symbol of love in all its manifestations. In terms of colors, the red rose represents true love, the blue one represents mystery, and the pink one represents courtesy. The white one represents many things – purity, perfection, closure and eternal love. The black rose represents death and goodbye forever. Yellow symbolizes joy and friendship. To express feelings in the language of colors, using roses is the easiest. A dark pink rose is gratitude, and a pale purple colored flower is love at first sight.
The meaning of iris in the language of flowers is respect, support and a sign of the value of friendship. With these flowers, it is easiest to show a good attitude and trust in the person to whom the bouquet is intended.
For many flowers that are not very common in our country, we have to use the foreign language of flowers, the meaning of gerbera in which is flirtation, joy and a hint of a secret connection between the giver of the bouquet and the one to whom it is intended. Symbolism of flowers in a bouquet of gerberas of red and white color is openness to the world, joy and love for life.
