Flowers are always with us in our daily lives. Sometimes we are soothed by flowers blooming by the roadside, and sometimes tears fall when we receive a bouquet on a special day. Flowers might possess the power to brighten up the moment.
This time, we introduce works with the 'language of flowers' associated with them. We hope it serves as inspiration for creating works that match the season, and as a reference for gifting flowers with heartfelt meanings to someone special.
Is More Always Better with Passionate Roses?
'Passion' and 'Love' are the quintessential meanings of red roses. White roses signify 'Purity' and 'Deep Respect', while pink roses mean 'Elegance' and 'Grace'. The meaning of flowers often changes with their color.
However, be cautious with yellow roses. Yellow signifies 'Fading Love' or 'Jealousy'. Despite their vibrant appearance, they might lead to misunderstandings for those who know the language of flowers.
Moreover, roses are unique in that their meaning changes with the number of stems. While 1 to 12 roses mainly convey love-related meanings, 15 to 17 roses signify unhappy love.
