The language of flowers

The language of flowers


Giving flowers can be a very personal gesture but a further dimension is implied by understanding the meaning of individual flowers.
Many of us are familiar with Shakespeare's quote 'there's rosemary, that's for remembrance…'

Persians, Greeks, Chinese and Indians have all used flowers language to symbolize emotions for centuries.

This quaint tradition seems rather coy these days, it can add an element of fun to an otherwise innocent gift of flowers or plants. The language of flowers is still observed, probably not consciously, by many brides as they make their choice of wedding bouquet.

Here are some of the most common and well known flowers by many of us and their meanings.

• Amaryllis: splendid beauty, pride.
• Bluebell: constancy, forgive and forget.
• Violet: faithfulness, modesty
• Sunflower: adulation
• Iris: flame of love
• Carnation: by the color
 red 'alas for many poor hearts'
 Striped: refusal
 Yellow: disdain
 Pink: women's love
• Tulip: by the color
 Red: declaration of love
 Striped: beautiful eyes
• Lilac: by the color
 Purple: first emotions of love
 White: youthful innocence
• Rose: symbolizes love and good fortune, by the color:
 White: truth
 White with pink blush:' only for thee'
 Large bright pink: 'meet me by moonlight'
 Single stem: simplicity
 Red and white together: unity
 Rosebuds: pure and lovely
 Red: eternal love


I hope that you will benefit from this, and next time you want to indulge someone special by buying a bouquet of flowers, you will be aware to buy the right flowers for the right occasions…………………….
