The names of all flowers mean something special. Names of flowers usually don’t happen by accident—though there might be a funny story behind some different types of flowers—but different kinds of flowers mean different things. Here are meanings behind of some of those names of flowers.
Roses
This perennial comes in over 100 species of flowers. The symbol of the rose has impressed the hearts of humanity for millennia. The Latin word rosa gives the basis for the current name; however, this name passed through Oscan, colonial Greek, Aeolic, Aramaic, Assyrian, and Old Iranian before becoming rosa. Chronologically, the word began as war, then ward, warda, vard, wurtinnu, wurrda, wrodon, rhodon, and, finally, rosa. When Juliet asks, “What’s in a name?”, she’s right in one sense: “rose” has always signified only the flower and nothing else. However, the name “rose” has taken some work to reach our day.

Flowers are a part of our life – be it on the trees or in the vases in our house. They can create so much life and beauty in any surrounding where they are kept or where they grow. These flowers are Nature’s gift of Beauty to all of us.

As a part of Nature’s plan, the flower plays the role of acting as an ‘attractor’. Within its petals are the seeds of the plants that are waiting to be fertilized. Bees, butterflies and birds etc. play an important role in this process and help the process of fertilization. This leads to the formation of the fruit which often contain the seeds of the plant.
