The messages of love, devotion and affection are historically bound to
flowers. The hidden meanings and messages was introduced by the Victorians when
it was difficult and inappropriate to show affections and feelings publicly.
The most ardent of lovers took great pleasure in sending flowers on Valentine’s
Day to indicate their intentions without speech!
Traditionally Valentine’s Day is celebrated on February 14th
throughout Europe and America,
the gesture of sending a Valentine’s note or card and presenting flowers has
become a tradition for many people. The red rose is the most popular flower to
send and although a single red rose stem continues to be a favourite, lavishing
enormous bunches of red roses is gaining in popularity.
