Blue flowers, being much rarer than other-colored blooms, bring with them a mysterious and special beauty all their own. Used widely to promote a wide range of feelings from calm and tranquil to dependability and loyalty, the color blue has mixed meanings based on its particular shade. For example, light blue stands for friendliness, peace, infinity, and serenity. Mid-range and vibrant blues denote strength, dependability, and coolness while darker blues signify authority, dignity, and intelligence.
So many variations of blue and so many meanings… this is why here at Zeidler’s Flowers, we love blue flowers. Here are some of our favorites:
