Speak With The Secret Language
of Flowers
on Valentine's Day
 Valentine's
Day brings out the poet in lovers everywhere, but what if your muse is not working. How can you
express the feelings that your special someone excites in you?
Whether you're bashful, head
over heels in love or just want to make someone feel special this Valentine's Day -- color talks.
Roses
continue to be one of the most popular gifts to give on Valentine's
Day and their subtle shades of meaning can say everything from
"I love you" to "Thanks for being such a great
friend." This Valentine's Day, Laura Milder, ProFlowers designer
and floral expert, offers tips on how to make sure your flower
selection matches your true feelings.
Don't muddle your colors -- Color can
play a key role in choosing the right flower gift to express your feelings. If you are looking
to cheer up a single friend or show a little appreciation this Valentine's Day, chose paler colored
roses such as yellow, pink or peach. Similar to the popular red rose that symbolizes passion and
true love, the purple rose can also be given as an expression of enchantment or new love. The
purity of the white rose naturally lends itself to meanings of innocence and loyalty, and is the
perfect gift to send to a beloved who is far away.
One or
a ton -- The secret
meaning of a rose can also be affected by the way in which
it is presented. Offering someone a single rose versus a bouquet
can speak volumes about the message that you are trying to convey.
A single red rose traditionally means that you are deeply in love
with someone while a mixed bouquet containing both red and white
roses signifies unity. For people with marriage on their mind,
two roses entwined to form one single stem is said to represent
a deep commitment and hints at an engagement or intention to marry.
Getting
fresh -- If you put a lot of time and effort into choosing
the right flower gift on Valentine's Day, you want to make
sure that they last and that what you ordered is what gets
delivered. The easiest solution is to choose flowers from a company
such as ProFlowers, who eliminates middlemen to ensure that your
bouquet is as fresh as possible and sends the message you intended.
Other ways to keep your flowers at their best are to cut off about
one inch of the stems and a keep them in a cool, dry environment
away from direct sunlight and drafts.
Flowers have long been a popular way to send
your message to a special person — Valentine's Day is the perfect excuse to express your
friendship and love.
