The History of Giving Flowers

Flowers - RosesGiving flowers is perhaps the best way to express emotion and caring. Flowers and floral arrangements have acted as great gifts for holidays, birthdays and anniversaries. They are also an excellent way to convey the warmest congratulations, of making apologies or to help cheer.

According to archaeologists flowers have always had an important role in ancient Rome and Egypt and in the civilizations of ancient Greece and China. These cultures believed that emotions could find their most suitable expression through the giving of flowers.

The tradition continued on into Middle Ages where France and England played significant roles in maintaining and upholding this tradition. When we give meaning to each flower, we are echoing an old Turkish custom believed to have been brought into Europe by the French and the British.

The Victorians also indulged themselves with this custom. As we know Victorians today they never expressed their feelings outwardly and thus the custom of gifting flowers or bouquets was considered an excellent means to convey emotions without discussing them.

The Victorians developed several rules for giving flowers or bouquets. For example, if you purchased a bouquet of red roses from the florist and presented them to someone upside down they would not be pleased. Red roses can depict anger if presented upside down. These rules were popular during this time that several books about the language of flowers were widely read.

Giving flowers has come down through the centuries, and people across the world indulge in the act of gifting flowers to convey their feelings. Many flowers themselves are picked for the meaning that they convey. For example, red roses are believed to express love while lilies symbolize purity and elegance. A yellow rose is seen as a sign of friendship and sorrow is best demonstrated by a lone marigold.
