5 Reasons to Send Flowers

Looking to step up your romance game? Here's a few reasons why flowers are the perfect way to show someone you care.

1. It's thoughtful

When it comes to flowers, it's always the thought that counts. Not sure how to show someone that you appreciate them, but want to show it none-the-less? A simple bouquet or floral arrangement is the perfect solution. Flowers say, "hey, I'm thinking about you and think you deserve something nice!" Whether someone is having a rough time or you just want to show them you care, "having a beautiful floral arrangement in your home is the ultimate brightener".

2. It's romantic

Ah, romance! Flowers are one of the easiest ways to heighten the romance in any situation. If you're planning a sexy date-night with your loved one, a bouquet of flowers can add that perfect, extra touch.

3. It's impressive

Want to impress the object of your affection and show them you think they're special? Bring them flowers! It shows that you're thoughtful and planned ahead -- all admirable attributes in a partner.

4. It's a great way to celebrate

Although flowers are a great way to birthdays, anniversaries and holidays like Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. They're also a great way to celebrate the little things in life.

5. Just because

You don't need a special reason to send flowers. You don't even need someone else to buy them for you. Romance doesn't need to involve anyone else. Want to brighten your day and your home? Treat yourself to a simple bouquet of Spring flowers for the simple reason that we all deserve a little bit of extra beauty in our lives.

The Meaning and Symbolism of Carnations

With a history that dates back more than 2,000 years, it's not surprising that carnations are rich with symbolism, mythology and even debate. While some scholars suggest that their name comes from the word "corone" (flower garlands) or "coronation" because of its use in Greek ceremonial crowns, others propose that it's derived from from the Latin "carnis" (flesh) referring to the flower's original pinkish-hued color or "incarnacyon" (incarnation), referring to the incarnation of God-made flesh.

Today, carnations can be found in a wide range of colors, and while in general they express love, fascination and distinction, virtually every color carries a unique and rich association. White carnations suggest pure love and good luck, light red symbolizes admiration, while dark red represents deep love and affection. Purple carnations imply capriciousness, and pink carnations carry the greatest significance, beginning with the belief that they first appeared on earth from the Virgin Mary's tears – making them the symbol of a mother's undying love.

Worn on Mother's Day, Teacher's Day, St. Patrick's Day (in green, of course) and at weddings, this hardy, sweetly fragrant flower is also the state flower of Ohio, the January birth month flower and the 1st wedding anniversary flower

In Victorian times, certain flowers had specific meanings because the flower selection was limited and people used more symbols and gestures to communicate than words. But today, with so many flower choices, there are no rules - it's the sentiment that gives the gift its meaning. Many people assign their own personal meanings - a flower or color that might remind them of a special event or moment in their lives.
