Red Alstroemeria symbolizes long-lasting love
This month's focus is Valentine's Day. According to the oldest surviving Valentine's poem by the English poet Geoffrey Chaucer, on Valentine's Day the birds return to nest for the first time. For him, it is the sign that winter is over and February can be called the month of love.
Valentine's Day, the day of love
Nowadays, Valentine's Day is the day for a sweet gesture or to say you love someone. Of course, this can be done with any color and any flower, but we think the red Alstroemeria is the most appropriate. Red is the color of romance, determination and passion.
Red Alstroemeria symbolizes celebration of long-lasting love
Did you know that giving a red Alstroemeria symbolizes the celebration of long-lasting love? When you surprise your loved one with a red Alstroemeria, she will enjoy the flower immediately. It symbolizes the love and passion between you, but the most beautiful symbolism follows in the week after Valentine's Day. Then eventually all the flowers will bloom, exactly as in a long-lasting love! Because the Alstroemeria is a long lasting flower, you can usually enjoy it for up to 2 weeks. The tip then is to cut a short piece of the stem every 3 /4 days and change the water. This way the flower absorbs new water and can continue to bloom longer.
Styling Advice
With a single Alstroemeria stem in a beautiful vase you can already achieve a lot of effect, because on each stem there are several flowers that all sprout. Thus, even a single Alstroemeria already symbolizes your long-lasting love! The Alstroemeria always comes open and never disappoints. There is no more beautiful gesture, is there?
