Curiously, in Ancient Greece flowers were offered as a reward to those who played a role well, but also as a form of declaration of love or even as a gift to families when they had their children. On this special date, March 8, we follow this ancient and significant tradition.
3 tips to avoid making mistakes when buying flowers
Look for seasonal flowers
In order not to run the risk of giving a gift with a flower that will soon wither, the ideal is to choose flowers that are in season, such as angelica, aster, caspia, cattleya, carnation, gerbera, daisy and orchids. These are great options because, in addition to holding up the high humidity well, they have different color options.
Learn more about flower care
Understand that each plant needs specific care and some require more attention and maintenance, while others are more practical. Pruned arrangements and rosebuds have a shelf life, however, storing them in cool, airy places makes the flowers last longer.
Look for the meaning behind the flower
Each flower has an interesting story, linked to its place of origin, for example, as well as its meaning, often linked to the color of the plant. The rose, for example, symbolizes perfection, love, heart, passion, soul, romance, purity, beauty, sensuality, rebirth. Depending on its color, it can symbolize tranquility (white), abundant happiness (yellow) or passion (red). In addition to the flower, giving the person a special message, telling something more about that gift, can be a great idea!
Happy Women’s Day to all!
