January Birthday Flower:
Carnations
Legend has it that the
first carnation
was the earthly manifestation
of Mother Mary's undying
love for her son, Jesus,
resultant from a tear
splashed upon the ground
under the cross. Carnation
flowers are in season
year-round to help commemorate
a wide array of emotions.
The carnation traditionally
celebrates fascination
and admiration, although
different colors of the
carnation flower convey
different meanings.
White carnations, for
example, wish "good luck,"
while red carnations denote
passion, and pink
carnations portray
reminiscence or a mother's
love.
Carnations have had such
a widespread influence
over cultures and centuries
past. It is no
doubt that the Capricons
whom the carnations celebrate
are equally fascinating.
Show that special person
how much you care by presenting
them with a beautiful
bouquet of carnations,
a perfect floral gift
for any Capricon. |
