Just as many types of flowers have symbolic
meaning, the colors of flowers do, too.
Steeped in tradition, with origins often
dating back thousands of years, each
colorful bloom – from a deep red rose to a
bright yellow daffodil – offers a rich and
meaningful story. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
The pale blue hues of a hydrangea or the
deep blues of an iris can calm worries, representing peace, openness,
and serenity. Fresh floral arrangements
filled with blue flowers offer a cooling
antidote to anxiousness. |
| |
|
|
 |

Think pink and you think of grace,
gentility, and happiness. Regardless of the
shape of the flower – from the tight, small
buds of a pink garden rose to the delicate,
open petals of a pink camellia in full bloom
– pink blossoms convey youth, innocence, and
joy. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
With its origins tied to royalty and
ceremony, purple flowers represent dignity,
pride and success. Whether grouped alone in
a bold range of rich hues or mixed in with
other colors to provide depth and contrast,
an arrangement filled with purple blooms
represents accomplishment and admiration. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
There is an indisputable energy to the color
red – an energy that has the power to
transform an otherwise unassuming flower
into the essence of desire, strength, and
passionate love. With beauty, courage and
heat as its symbolism, it’s no surprise that
a bouquet filled with rich, red blooms knows
no restraint. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
Often associated with innocence, humility,
and reverence, white flowers evoke simple
beauty. Whether they take their shape as the
luxurious, silk petals of fragrant
gardenias, the small, white bells of a lily
of the valley, or the quiet drama of a dozen
white roses, fresh floral arrangement
dominated by white blossoms conveys modesty
and elegance. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
There is a good reason why it can feel all
but impossible to refrain from smiling when
you spot a bouquet of bright daffodils or a
pot filled with sun-drenched
chrysanthemums–the yellow color evokes
feelings of joy and lightheartedness. Also a
symbol of friendship, a bouquet bursting
with yellow blooms sends a message of new
beginnings and happiness. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
There is nothing bashful about the orange
color–its message is clear and blatantly
proud. Symbolizing energy, enthusiasm, and
warmth, an arrangement of blooms in this
vibrant color conveys confidence,
satisfaction and a passion for life. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
Synonymous with nature–and the perfect
complement to any other bloom–the green
color represents health, resilience, good
fortune and youth. Whether used to throw
together a diverse mixture of shapes and
hues or as a restful tone-on-tone bouquet,
green flowers send a message of optimism and
renewal. |
| |
|

|
While purple is the color of royalty, and
pink the color of youth, lavender is
femininity all grown up. Representing
refinement, grace, and elegance, lavender
holds an almost sacred place in nature—with
violet flowers often considered the most
delicate and precious. An arrangement filled
with these genteel blossoms send a message
of feminine beauty. |
