On Flowers and People

21/06/2024

Flowers affect people in different ways through their shape, colour and scent. These elements can have a significant effect on a person’s emotional and mental state. Here is how each of these aspects can influence us.

The shape of flowers

Symbolism and associations: Different flower shapes can evoke different associations. For example, roses, with their round and symmetrical forms, are often associated with love and romance. Sweet Unique from our collection is one of the brightest examples of this.

 

 

Alstroemerias, in turn, with their unique shapes reminiscent of butterflies and other forms from the animal world, stir our imagination and awaken our creativity and creative thinking.

Orange Queen is one of the most picturesque varieties in our collection, while Pompei captivates with its vivid colours and freckle-like patterns.

 

The effect of colours

It has been proven that different colours have different effects on the psyche. For example:

The colour red stimulates energy, passion and excitement. It is no coincidence that the red rose is a symbol of romantic passion. This fiery energy can be felt even in “baby roses”, such as the captivating Rubicon.

 

 

 

 

The colour blue usually has a calming effect, creates tranquillity and is suitable for relaxation.

 

 

 

Yellow is often associated with happiness and optimism. Take a closer look – Bumblebee is not an ordinary yellow rose; it is a source of positive emotions and a sunny mood.

 

The colour green symbolises nature, growth and balance, and calms the mind.

In different cultures, colours can have specific meanings that further influence how they are perceived.

The scent of flowers

Many flowers contain essential oils that have therapeutic properties. For example:

  • Lavender is known for its soothing and relaxing effects.
  • The rose, besides being the queen of flowers, reduces stress and anxiety.
  • Jasmine can lift mood and reduce depression.

Scents often provoke strong emotional reactions and can awaken memories. The smell of a particular flower can bring back memories of a certain place or event, thereby influencing our current emotional state.

In the dynamics of today’s world, stress and anxiety are unavoidable. We are constantly solving problems and rushing to keep to some schedule. Flowers, with their various properties, help us lower our level of anxiety and fill ourselves with calm. They heal the body and mind in an amazing way, give us positive emotions and create an atmosphere of beauty and well-being around us.
