Go On! Be Bold With Delphinium!

Know anyone like this?

One of the characteristics that I like to see in people is boldness. Not to be confused with ego or bravado, the type of boldness that I consider appealing is that daring ability to be courageous in the face of danger or adversity. It is having strong enough character to admit convictions that go against the flow or to express opinions that may or may not be the desired ones. I am this kind of person to my friends and I expect the same in return.

The reason that my rant turns to this today is because I was reviewing a list of flower meanings associated with certain blooms that florists use. Delphinium caught my eye then captured my attention with “boldness” listed beside it. When you think about it, how bold do you have to be to remain one of the only true blue cut flowers in a florist shop? Pretty bold I imagine.

I believe that part of the beauty of delphinium comes from its striking color but another part is just how rarely seen that color is in a florist’s grand scheme of things. Pink, red, yellow and green flood the floral industry. They are all gorgeous colors but sometimes I want to see something on the opposite end of the spectrum. That’s where delphinium comes into play.

Do you know someone that is bold or tends to stand out but in a really cool, rather charming way? The next time that gift giving comes around, ask your local florist to include delphinium in the arrangement. Your sweetheart or friend will love the flowers and even more appreciate the card message detailing why you chose delphinium. Your florist can dream up the arrangement while you author the card message but don’t miss the chance for an awesome gift idea like this. It’s why flower meanings are so cool in the first place!
