Floriography is the language of flowers, using flowers to communicate emotions, feelings, wishes. Artists too use floriography to communicate deeper messages in their artworks.
Express love, thanks, good luck, friendship…

Clever take on – this is still important in the world. As my mother just passed away, I received white flowers. And also red flowers of love.

Wonderful idea for the challenge! I love this! It’s interesting how in different countries flowers have different meanings. I believe chrysanthemums are often sent for funerals in Italy and other parts of Europe, but in the USA, we might send lilies or roses.

Thank you Patti! Many European countries also follow the odd number tradition where an odd number of blooms signifies joy and luck, and even numbers are for sad occasion and considered unlucky.
