Flowers and hints
Flowers can tell us a lot. The language of flowers helps people understand each other and express their feelings.
To give flowers means to express to man his love and respect.
Flowers at all times were considered and are considered the best gift for any holiday. A large bouquet of bright beautiful flowers can create a real miracle and cheer up everyone ...
Now, many of us, choosing flowers, are not satisfied with a few carnations or roses, but try to make a bouquet of different colorsguided by their own ideas about beauty.
Skillfully picked up bouquet can replace the whole message. Everything was important in the selected bouquet - how many flowers, what color and proximity to other flowers ... and how to present it correctly.
In the East there is a special language of flowers. Each flower carries a certain meaning: Azalea means sadness, loneliness; carnation symbolizes passion; forget-me-not - memory; violet - modesty; cornflowers - trust, tenderness; chamomile - youth, romance; lily - purity; a rose represents love; white rose, white lily, callas - a symbol of purity, the nobility of the soul and actions; the red rose is an open expression of feelings, a symbol of passion and desire, and the scarlet rose is a symbol of romantic love and passion.
We mentioned the bouquets "with meaning", "with a hint." What does this mean? First of all, we mean the generally accepted symbolism of color. This symbolism has developed over the centuries and it is well-known by connoisseurs of flower business and aesthetes. So, the pink color symbolizes the tender feelings of the giver, he can even express a declaration of love. The active red color is the love of life, freedom, an active position, while the purple color suggests a tendency to humility. Blue and blue flowers "speak" of longing, fidelity, and it is customary to give them away to those who leave for the army. Yellow is treason. Orange color symbolizes strength, power, pride. White color, a symbol of purity, carries the most beautiful aspirations and wishes for an object of gift, in some countries they are an expression of sadness and mourning. Purple flowers can be presented to each other by men - the purple color represents friendship, support, and selfless service. Green is the expectation of calm and peace. In the time of Catherine II, the "Flower Register" was even developed, where red means love, green means hope, blue means fidelity, black means sadness, yellow means treason. And in the culture of Japan, for example, yellow is a symbol of light and the sun, and they give yellow flowers people who want light and good. In the culture of the Ancient East, each season had its own color: black for winter, white for autumn, blue for spring and red for summer. There are customs and prejudices regarding the coloring of the petals. A special attitude, of course, to yellow, the color of betrayal and infidelity. One of the eastern legends says that red roses exposed the unfaithful wife of a certain sultan, turning yellow in her hands. As for giving flowers, the “ban” on yellow has long been lifted, and you can give these flowers in any situation. But still, if you are afraid to make a mistake with the color, choose the universal color of the petals - white. It goes well with any other shades and is suitable for all occasions. Pink color is usually associated with youth and modesty. The red color of all nations is considered the color of love and passion. In the bouquet, it goes well with white, yellow, and with pink and purple is not recommended. Blue color in garden plants is quite rare, although there are many wildflowers of blue color. Saturated blue color in combination with bright yellow or dazzling white will charm the eye of any person. Children are presented with small and delicate flowers of bright, joyful tones arranged in small bouquets. For older women, avoid giving dark and fast-withering flowers.
