Flowers speak a universal language, transcending cultural boundaries and verbal expression. In our latest Blossom Bliss feature, we explore the enchanting way flowers communicate emotions and connect us to one another and to the natural world.
The tradition of assigning meanings to flowers, known as floriography, dates back to the Victorian era when social conventions restricted open expression of emotions. A bouquet back then was not just a gift of beauty but a coded message to the recipient. For instance, red roses symbolized love, while daisies stood for innocence.
Today, this language remains vibrant. Each flower still carries its own unique message. Lavender expresses devotion, sunflowers signify adoration and loyalty, and irises convey courage and admiration. These meanings offer a deeper appreciation of nature's beauty, enhancing the experience of giving and receiving floral arrangements.
At Gathered Stems, we encourage our customers to consider these meanings when selecting bouquets. Whether celebrating a milestone, expressing sympathy, or simply bringing a touch of natural beauty into the home, understanding the language of flowers can enrich these moments.
Moreover, our Blossom Bliss initiative aims to educate and inspire through these short articles that delve into the symbolic meanings of different blooms. We believe that understanding this language not only enhances the aesthetic appreciation of flowers but also strengthens connections between people.
As you next contemplate a floral gift, remember that you are not just sending flowers, you are sending a message steeped in history and emotion. Let the timeless language of flowers speak for you, and let Blossom Bliss guide you in choosing a bouquet that perfectly expresses your feelings.
