Flower connotations have blurred through history but they best evoke the irrepressible, without offending or rejecting. Every flower has a name and meaning that works in the right color and numbers. If you are mad about someone, furious with another, soothed by a third and celebrating with the fourth, flowers can speak for you at every instance. Do your homework and use the right flower. These non-verbal articulations save you more time, energy and reams of crumpled paper.
A touchstone for inspiration on canvas, at worship, as adornment or décor, flowers have always worked their magic since time immemorial into art, sculpture, religion, literature and aesthetics. Offering subliminal messages that belie the imagination, they continue to please and tantalize the creative mind.
Nature's ecological bosses for balance, sustenance and procreation, they continue to reinvent themselves in current business economics. Flowers and flower essences are known to miraculously uplift and motivate. Young or old, rich or poor, cranky or dying, flower power operates on body, mind and soul. Hidden within toothpastes, shampoos, perfume, medicines, repellants and a host of other products, scientists are still unraveling the inscrutable secrets of these chromatic delights.
A riot in gardens or homes, they bewitch time's relentless beat. Spring, summer, autumn or winter, fresh open blooms blush out dull walls, inspire dingy spaces and embrace human spirits. No wonder they are the key to thriving equilibriums and balance sheets as well.

That aromatic whiff teases the senses. Feelings are enveloped in iridescent shades, more evocative than rambling verse or tedious phrase. Across the spectrum of man's memory, flowers have cradled the complex essences of the human heart. Petal soft hopes weaving into expectant hearts - saluting, comforting, promising and exalting.
