Flowers have kept the first place all throughout our history. Proofs of their usefulness are presented in numerous folk tales, myths, and religious texts. Various kinds of flowers were applied for food and are still applied for food until present time; others have curing properties and are used as medicine. They were applied by Greeks and Romans a number of centuries ago since people at that time believed that the fragrance of flowers cleans the atmosphere and reduces intoxication. Even notorious military leaders famous for their mercilessness while at war maintained gardens of exotic plants at home.
Owing to the high appreciation of flowers by human society they became symbols of numerous nations. So, a rose is the national emblem of Honduras, Iran and England. Italy in its turn is represented by a lily, Japan by a chrysanthemum, Russia by a sunflower, Brazil by a Cattleya and so forth.
The most essential function of flowers, however, is their power to arouse profound human thoughts and emotions the way no other thing can. These plants by some miracle embody tenderness and beauty. They are able to raise the spirits or to inspire on generous actions. A small bunch of flowers on a table is a symbol of coziness. That's why women, and in particular housewives, try to include fresh flowers in their budget.
But flowers are symbolic not only in this way. Each flower has its own significance, and thus it can help to express people's feelings. Flowers have been applied for centuries to send different messages. For instance, the red carnation used to mean “my heart aches for you”. The recipient in her turn could answer with a cabbage rose (which means “I confess my love”) or a dried up white rose which in flower language means “you leave me cold”.
Today the most popular way to tell about the feeling is sending a floral composition of 3 long-stemmed red roses to the lady you worship.
