What are your blooms saying?

Have you ever wondered what your favourite flowers are really saying? Here at Bella Donna Flowers, we believe that every bloom has a story to tell. Whether you’re sending a bouquet to a loved one, treating yourself to some fresh flora, or picking the perfect bunch for a special occasion.

Understanding the meaning behind the petals can add an extra layer of sentiment to your arrangement.

A Love Letter in Petals

Flowers have been used to express emotions for centuries – long before text messages and emojis!

The Victorians took floriography (the language of flowers) to a whole new level. Carefully selecting blooms to send secret messages of love, friendship, and even sorrow. A red rose? That’s an undeniable declaration of love. A yellow tulip? That’s cheerfulness and sunshine wrapped up in a single stem.

What Do Your Favourite Flowers Mean?

Here are some of the most popular flowers and their hidden meanings:

• Roses – Red for love, yellow for friendship, pink for admiration, and white for purity.
• Tulips – Symbolising perfect love, but also happiness and warmth (especially in yellow!).
• Lilies – Often associated with purity and remembrance, white lilies are especially elegant and meaningful.
• Daisies – Representing innocence and new beginnings, they make a lovely choice for birthdays and fresh starts.
• Orchids – Exotic and elegant, they symbolise beauty, strength, and luxury.
• Sunflowers – Just like the sun, these blooms stand for adoration, loyalty, and happiness.
• Peonies – A favourite for weddings, they represent prosperity, good fortune, and a happy marriage.
