COLOR
The language of flowers or "floriography" was a way of communicating using flowers and floral arrangements to convey a message that was otherwise left unspoken. This was popularized during the reign of Queen Victoria from June 1837 to January 1901. Various symbols and meanings were associated with particular flowers and their colors such as the yellow tulip for hopeless love, or the lavender for devotion.
Today, we instinctively choose the appropriate flower to match our sentiment or the occasion. From fiery red to pure and innocent white, one can never mistake the effect that color brings to one's emotions.
Like the picket fence surrounding a safe and happy home, or the silent simplicity of a white wedding gown waltzing down the aisle, white is considered to be the color of perfection. White aids mental clarity, encourages us to clear clutter or obstacles, evokes purification of thoughts or actions, and enables fresh beginnings.
The dramatic appeal of a red flower is never an understatement. Red is inherently stimulating and will boldly convey your level of energy and excitement. The arresting color of red increases enthusiasm, encourages action and confidence, and creates a sense of protection from fears and anxiety.

Is it true that pastries taste better when they come out of pink boxes? The thought of pink even makes the best of us crave for a pretty cupcake! The sweetness of pink flowers will always convey a pleasing and attractive message no matter who you`re celebrating. Like the color red, pink stimulates energy and can increase the blood pressure, respiration, heartbeat, and pulse rate. They also encourage action and confidence.
Like the glow of a sunny morning, yellow flowers shine with optimism, enlightenment, and happiness. Like a lovely sunrise, it carries the promise of a great day ahead. Yellow instills optimism and energy, sparks creative thoughts, activates the memory, and encourages communication.
Purple creates a sense of mysticism and royalty. It uplifts a tired and weary spirit, calms the mind and soul, offers a sense of spirituality, and encourages creativity. Purple embodies the balance between the stimulating characteristics of red and the serenity of blue.
Orange is associated with the exoticism of the tropics and the brilliance of a radiant sunshine. The fun and flamboyance of orange represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation.
