Today on my way to work, i went through a small nursery and I found this beautiful flower, an orange Japanese lily. Japanese lilies are exotic flowers, resistant and with a fragrance that falls in love. And, if that were not enough, it is a flower full of symbolism, in this sense the meanings attributed to it are:
- Femininity: The Greeks and Romans gave crowns of lilies to women with the intention of wishing them a hopeful and fruitful life.
- Love: In Victorian times lovers gave lilies to women as a sign of love.
- Purity: at weddings, white lilies acquire a purity meaning.
- Moment of transition: The serene and pure aspect of the lily expresses desires of overcoming in moments of loss and mourning.
This is my entry for #colorchallenge Tuesday Orange. #colorchallenge is a contest initiated by @kalemandra. Thank you to @kalemandra for creating this wonderful #colorchallenge.
lilies boast health benefits, while this is funny but true Chinese believe Lilies bring good luck and lilies are one of the most prevalent flowers in Europe
