Executive Summary about Tulips Meaning by Adriana Noton
Roses are
one of the most popular flowers, and for good reason. In general, a rose
symbolizes love.
If you want
to lift someone's spirits, or let them know how much happiness they bring you,
an arrangement of sunflowers is a good choice. Because of the sunflower's
ability to provide nourishment through seeds, it's often associated with health
and longevity as well.
Birthdays,
promotions, a thank you gift, or bridal showers are ideal occasions for daises
of any color combination.
Tulip
meanings can be somewhat complicated. They've been around since well before the
16th century. Thus the meanings of each variety and color have evolved over
time. In the past, the tulip was a symbol of a perfect love, or of being
deserving of love. In modern times, the tulip generally indicates forgiveness -
forgiving someone or asking to be forgiven. They are also often used as part of
an overall romantic arrangement in combination with roses.
As symbol of
gratitude, it's no wonder carnations are a symbol of Mother's Day.
If someone
you care about got a promotion, achieved a special goal, or who you want to
send a bit of encouragement, choose a bouquet of irises.
