Ralph W. Emerson once said,  “Flowers… are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty out values all the utilities in the world.”

We, being on active recreation in nature, in cultural parks, try to pluck beautiful flowers. The collected bouquets are taken home and placed in vases. The nature beauty in the form of flowers dies every hour through the fault of human beings.

Our ancestors, observing nature, noticed the medicinal properties of plants. After a successful hunt, men brought not only the prey to the family hearth, but also leaves, stems and pollen of medicinal plants.

The women dried flowers and herbs in the sun and prepared medicines. Flowers were also the first home decorations and costume jewelry. That is why women love to receive flowers as a gift from men.

Each plant, especially a blossoming one, is a specific symbol. While making an arty composition, you need to take into account the meaning of the flowers in the bouquet, especially if the bouquet is intended for a person deep in your heart.

The most important flowers to express your feelings are the following:

• roses;
• chrysanthemums;
• chamomiles;
• tulips;
• gerberas;
• orchids;
• lilys.

A rose is a flower of love. The color meaning is perhaps even much stronger than the symbolism of the flower itself. White roses are ideal for making a flower composition of the bride, because they symbolize purity and innocence. They are the absolute opposite of the red ones that people use to underline their passion and sexual attraction.

A tulip is a flower of joy and happiness. Without any doubts, you can give it to a person with whom you are really happy.

An Orchid is a sign of aristocracy, refinement and luxury, so you need to give them to luxurious, noble and sophisticated women.

A lily is a symbol of immaculate purity, tenderness and hope. They are given to brides for their weddings in an addition to their romantic images. The meaning of flowers in a wedding bouquet is especially important, so lilies will be a great choice, they can emphasize the purity and innocence of a girl entering into marriage.

A gerbera with its frolicking appearance is very similar to daisies, besides, gerberas do not differ in their value from them. To present them means to hint at a light flirtation, because they symbolize a secret and a smile.

How to give flowers

My female friend has just called me and said, “Three of the girls in my office just got some flowers for the holidays. They’re absolutely gorgeous! And my Honey-bear even does not rub his ears!”

I replied, “That’s probably why they got flowers…and you should make a new makeup, a new hairstyle…spa procedures will not be extra…”

A few tips for men how to give flowers to their loved ones.

• Unobtrusively find out what flowers the lady likes, and whether she likes them at all.
• Flowers should be treated not as a formal gift, but as a living being.
• In the cold, it is better to buy flowers not on the street, but in a warm room.
• If you send a bouquet by a messenger, attach a business card or postcard with the message.
• Try to surprise not with the size of the bouquet, but its originality. This way your gift will stay in the memory of your cutie girl much
• If a woman does not like bouquets, give her separately packed flowers. But the packaging must be well thought out.
• If you give roses, clean the thorns about 2/3 of the length of the stem.
• Remember that alive flowers are better than dead.
