Valentine’s Day is a day when even the smallest gesture takes on special meaning. Giving flowers on Valentine’s Day is supposed to express feelings in the most beautiful way possible. But it turns out that not every flower is a safe and obvious choice.
Some bouquets may symbolize bad luck or upcoming conflicts instead of love and happiness. Sometimes one inconspicuous detail can change the symbolism of the entire gift. And although we are only talking about Valentine’s Day superstitions, many people believe that it’s not worth tempting fate, because each of them may contain a grain of truth.
For centuries, flowers, apart from being beautiful, have had their own meaning. What matters is the species, color and number of flowers in the bouquet. All this can convey emotions and intentions without words, which is especially important on Valentine’s Day. A wrong bouquet can cause embarrassment instead of joy and, worst of all, bring bad luck to your relationship.
What flowers are better not to give on Valentine’s Day?
- Bouquet of yellow tulips or roses – although they seem joyful and energetic, their symbolism is associated with jealousy, betrayal and coldness in relationships. Such a bouquet may bring tension between partners and, in the context of Valentine’s Day, herald emotional distance.
- A bouquet of only white flowers – the color is associated with innocence, but also with farewell and sadness. This is not the best choice to show warmth and love. A bouquet of white flowers, such as carnations, may herald a lack of passion and coldness in the relationship.
- Bouquet of artificial flowers – some may think that this is a durable option that will stay in a vase for a long time. In reality, this choice symbolizes something impermanent and emotionless. It bodes tension and unfavorable fate for the relationship.
- A bouquet of an even number of flowers – tradition clearly states that a bouquet with an even number of flowers is associated with sad occasions. Such a bouquet given on Valentine’s Day may portend problems in the relationship.
