Valentine's Day: The Language Of The Flowers
Ah! Valentine's Day is once again here and if your lady happens to just love getting flowers then there are a myriad of choices for all you wonderfully romantic fellows out there. Everything from gorgeous Daisies to lusciously scented roses are available to give your sweetie; as well as a nearly unlimited combination of eye pleasing orchids, lilies, tulips, sunflowers, and more.
To make your choice even more special you can a get your loved one live plant and flower combinations that she can keep and transplant into her garden or add to the indoor/outdoor container garden she has going on. To make your choice even more specialized, many flowers have been assigned certain meanings over the ages. Lilies, for example, have come to represent honor, aspiration, innocence and purity - depending on the specific type of lily. Sunflowers represent warmth and friendship and longevity. The Iris represents faith, hope, and wisdom while the Gerbera Daisy represents beauty, innocence, and cheerful sentiments.
Finally, the ever popular Rose has always symbolized love, but depending on the color has many additional meanings. Red, of course, means deep love and devotion, while pink conveys grace, elegance, joy and appreciation. Blue roses convey a gentle peace and serenity, while white stand for purity and is most often associated with weddings. Orange roses will tell your sweetie that you find her exciting and desirable, while lavender tells her that she enchants you and conveys the idea of love at first sight.
Whatever type of flowers you decide to send your beloved will most certainly convey your love and affection to her. Whether you send a a bunch of heady scented roses or luscious lilies she is sure to show her appreciation. Of course, for all you really romantic and sentimental guys there are plenty of great additions to attach to the bunches of flowers that are offered by many floral shops. A cuddly, adorable teddy bear is usually a real pleaser; or an addition of some delectable, hand-dipped, chocolate covered strawberries can earn you some serious snuggle time! Perhaps your lady has a special perfume she likes to wear, or even a basket full of her favorite scented bath items, such as a loofah, massage lotions, bath salts, etc.
Whatever you do do it with gusto and with the intent of making the lady of your life feel very special and in turn she's sure to make you feel very special! Happy Valentine's Day!
