The Hidden Messages In Your Bouquet...
Red roses are traditionally
associated with St Valentine's Day; to many people they symbolise
passion, true love, romance. To some, however, they can also symbolise
lack of originality!
Whether a single stem or
a dozen blooms, red roses can state the obvious - as one
respondent to a Flowers & Plants Association survey said: If
you've got her with one, you don't need the other eleven...
The F&PA advises men to play it cooler
this February 14th; show her you're a classy guy who's taken
the time to choose something a little more personal. Why not follow
the language of flowers for a hidden message? Flamboyant amaryllis
flowers - like huge red lilies - make an impressive impact, and
also mean splendid beauty - perfect for that supermodel you've had
your eye on.
A bouquet of bright, tissuey ranunculus
- like full-blown roses - not only looks gorgeous, but says you
are rich in attractions. Maybe she'll take you to lunch on her Gold
Card!
For the more passionate amongst you,
a few stems of deliciously scented white tuberose - a tropical flower,
not a rose - imply dangerous pleasures; while for those worshipping
from afar sunflowers simply spell adulation.
If you are a traditionalist at heart, and
it just has to be roses, why not try a bunch of small yellow
ones instead - and tell her she is all that is lovely...
