Most of us have given flowers to someone or have received them on occasion. After all, the act of giving and receiving flowers in a deep tradition. In the early days plants where given for their medicinal and herbal properties. These days we mostly give choose flowers for their visual appeal and a fantastic smell. These days you would be hard pressed to find someone who does not have a favourite flower, and some of us can become very passionate about what we like. After all flowers are full of symbolism.
