"All over the world women wear flowers in their hair. It is the oldest and most natural adornment. With their scent and their fragile beauty flowers can transform simple hair styles into adorable and even breathtaking creations. But they are not only beautiful, they also tell messages.
The language of flowers goes back thousands of years. Each culture had its own meanings attached to the tender plants. In Europe the art of wearing flowers became very popular in the time of Queen Victoria, in the late 1800’s. Then each flower had a meaning expressed by the way it was held, given or put into a vase. Everything was coded, down to the color of the vase.
Some decades later the flower children in the 1960s rediscovered flowers to show their connection to nature, as a symbol for love, innocence and divine beauty." (Excerpt from website)
The rose is one of the flowers that has multiple meanings, depending upon its color. The red rose hair flower in the All Products tab (Joy 3) is the cause for my choice of mentioning today's FSF, or Flower Symbolism Facts. However, I will be mentioning the symbolic meanings for the three different colors of the rose hair flowers (Joy 1, Joy 2, and Joy 3) in the All Products tab.
The red rose has the symbolic meanings of Sacrifice, Immortal love, Health, Memorial, and Passion; whereas, the green rose's symbolism is calmness, fertility, and fruitfulness.
Some more keywords expressing the rose's symbolism in a broader sense are Love, Honor, Faith, Beauty, Balance, Passion, Wisdom, Intrigue, Devotion, Sensuality, and Timelessness.
As for the orange rose:
"Orange roses have emerged as one of the true stand-outs among today's popular rose varieties. The fiery color of an orange rose immediately conjures up passionate thoughts of romance. They can also be reminiscent of the warmth of a glowing sunset, or the sweetness of citrus. Orange roses come in a range of shades, from bright orange to softer coral and peach colors. Since the introduction of the orange rose into the world of roses, they have quickly found their place in the hearts and imaginations of rose aficionados everywhere.
"The orange rose has mainly come to be regarded as the symbol for desire, enthusiasm and passion. Being a literal mixture of the colors yellow and red, orange roses were often seen as a bridge between the feelings of friendship symbolized by yellow roses, and love associated with red roses.
"The association of orange roses with romantic expressions is fitting, considering the obvious connection between the color of fire and the metaphors we associate with it. The orange rose has become the perfect way to symbolize the heat of passion, burning desire and the flames of love. Orange roses have a power to send a message of romance that can rival even the red rose!
"In the relatively short time the orange roses have been on the scene, they have had quite an impact. From those who simply enjoy the warming color, to those who wish to convey that special meaning, the orange rose has become a mainstay in the family of roses. They can have the soft radiance of an autumn sunset which warms and soothes the spirit. At the same time, orange roses can have an intensity that can consume hearts and souls, much like the fire that we associate them with." (Excerpt from proflowers website.)
