Valentine’s Day Flowers
Feb 25, 2016

One of the reasons magenta became so popular on Valentine’s Day is because of how many flowers you can find of that color. Color tastes and styles transition over time so it’s no surprise that palette and pattern choices for Valentine’s Day would also be different this year.

Historical background
During the decorous Victorian era, lovers used to exchange flowers to express different nuances of their feelings. Consequently, the colors of flowers have flourished with significance. Without even uttering a compromising word, a woman had been aware about love in the course of receiving a dozen of red roses. Nevertheless the fact of perceiving yellow roses among the red, has made her understand that her love was growing impatient and even jealous.
Today, I don’t think we need a Victorian decoder to decode the message of a bouquet. Because the language of flowers speaks to our senses, from sunny yellow to dusky purple, blooms offer endless possibilities for self-expression. . Whether you select a simple monochromatic palette, choose the same blossom in a range of colors, or create floral-inspired color combos. A signature palette can always be inspired by the colors and patterns of flowers. Think of floral hues and patterns, and bring them indoors to magnify your Valentine’s eve and make the day more passionate.
