They adorned their pharaohs, their tombs and their warrior carts with flower bouquets. The blue and the white lotus (water lilies) or the papyrus flower were frequently depicted in hieroglyphics and found in tombs.

Lovers still enjoy giving and receiving bouquets of flowers, breathing in the poignant aromas, gazing upon the fresh natural beauty and pondering the significance of such a thoughtful gesture.

bouquets of flowers
The first thing to consider when choosing flowers arrangements for lovers is the nature of the relationship. Daisies and chrysanthemums are perfect for a cheerful and playful lover in an innocent and new relationship. Another flirtatious favorite for new loves is the fragrant hyacinth.

Modest and shy lovers will like something sweet and simple like violets. Rose bouquets are the most famous, particularly red roses, but there are many other flower garden contenders: tulips, lilacs, lilies, wildflowers, irises and orchids, for instance. For intensely passionate physical relationships, it should be noted that tulips are traditionally known to represent “the perfect lover.”

Sometimes bouquets of flowers can be coordinated with regard to the recipient’s home interior decor or favorite colors. For special events, matching the bouquet color to a dress or a tie is always a prudent idea. Does she have an Asian-themed room? Why not try some bamboo, Asiatic lilies, cherry blossoms or a Bonzai tree?

To adorn large spaces, it’s ok to go big and bold with vivid bouquets of lilies, hydrangeas or gladioluses. If her bedroom is blue, then the sender can try a monochromatic theme of all blue flowers. To instantly de-stress a home, try varieties like cyclamen, kalanchoe, pothos, ivy, sunflowers, daisies, hydrangea, delphinium or tulips.

Flower bouquets have been given for thousands of years to bring luck in battle, to adorn lovers, to celebrate kings or to provide happiness and tranquility. In modern times, people often forget to simply stop and smell the roses during the hustle and bustle of a busy day.

If people cannot get out of the office to enjoy nature, the best recourse is to bring nature to them. Thoughtfulness can go a long way, whether it’s a wildflower selected on a romantic stroll through the park or an orchestrated celebratory bouquet that comes by mail.

bouquets of flowers

Nothing says “I love you,” “I miss you,” “I appreciate you,” “I’m sorry” or “I care about you” like flower bouquets. The amazing thing is that the recipient knows instantly which particular message is being conveyed, without the sender saying a single word. The brain interprets the splash of color, the aromatic scent, the lush greenery and the thoughtful gesture in the same way that it would an eloquent love poem or a metaphorical piece of writing. While the thought is definitely what counts, senders will still want to ensure that the bouquet is especially memorable by choosing the right arrangement for a lover.

Sometimes flower bouquets look best when coordinated with the recipient’s home decor. “The recent Harvard research is proof that if we live in places that lift our spirits, we can live happier, healthier lives,” said Rebecca Cole of the Discovery Channel’s Surprise By Design show. “Fresh cut flowers are the perfect everyday accessory for any budget, as they add color, fragrance and style, and now we know they even increase energy and compassion.” Traditional homes work best with traditional flowers, such as rose bouquets, gladiolus, irises, lilies or carnations, whereas contemporary designs call for bold colors of anthuriums, heliconia, callas and orchids. Victorian homes look best with fragrant pastels, such as roses, peonies, lavender, gardenias and freesia. Country homes often go for a bouquet of wildflowers like yarrow, wild roses, scabiosa, heather, daisies or sunflowers. To instantly de-stress a home, try varieties like cyclamen, kalanchoe, pothos, ivy, sunflowers, daisies, hydrangea, delphinium or tulips.

If people cannot get out of the office to enjoy nature, the best recourse is to bring nature to them. Studies show that having flowers in the home and workplace leads to higher productivity and creativity.
