The Meaning Behind Flower Colours
RED FLOWERSVibrant, passionate and demanding to be noticed, red is the color of love and romance. Red flowers symbolize courage, respect, constancy, admiration and, of course, desire. |
PINK FLOWERSDelicate light pink hues speak of gentleness, happiness and love. A very romantic flower color, it’s also a symbol of grace and innocence. |
GREEN FLOWERSGreen flowers represent the optimism of renewal, of spring and of youthfulness. Green flowers in a bouquet are also a wish for good fortune and good health. |
WHITE FLOWERSWhite flowers can mean reverence and humility, purity and innocence or sympathy for bereavement. Depending on the type of blooms chosen by your local florists, a bouquet of white flowers can be bold and brilliant, or gentle and self-effacing. |
YELLOW FLOWERSYellow flowers burst with happiness. They symbolize the bonds of friendship, the taste of success and pride. Joy is also one of the meanings of this flower, as that is one of the feelings the color is said to evoke. |
LAVENDER & PURPLE FLOWERSYouth and elegance, grace and refinement. Purple flowers have a delicate, feminine and old-fashioned touch to them, even when contained in a decidedly modern bouquet. A royal color, purple flowers symbolize dignity, tradition and success. A bouquet containing purple flowers can be symbols of admiration and adoration. |
ORANGE FLOWERSNo wallflower, here. Orange is bold, passionate and full of life. It’s no wonder that orange blooms speak of enthusiasm, excitement and exuberance. |
BLUE FLOWERSPeaceful blue is said to convey serenity and openness. A flower delivery of a bouquet containing blue flowers may be a sign to slow down, relax and release the stress. |
