The number of flowers in a bouquet always matters. For example, in Russia an even number of flowers is perceived negatively, while in Japan it is considered a wish for happiness.
Such a different meaning of colors
When buying a bouquet, our compatriots always emphasize that there should be an odd number of flowers. Moreover, in Russia there is an opinion that there should be as many flowers as possible, since this speaks of the strength of the feelings of the donor. And an even number of flowers in a bouquet is considered mourning. After all, it is the even number that is put on the graves.
In the USA, Europe and the East, an even number of flowers, on the contrary, will be delighted. In these countries, there is an opinion that even numbers enhance luck, give happiness, attract love. In the USA they give a dozen flowers, in Germany the golden number is eight, and the Japanese can give a bouquet of two flowers.
The secret language of flowers still exists in Japan. But the meaning is not the flowers themselves, but their quantity. One flower is perceived by the Japanese as a sign of attention, three speak of respect, five - a declaration of love, seven speak of undisguised adoration, nine is an ideal number, speaks of admiration. Therefore, bouquets of seven flowers are given to beloved girls, and from nine - to idols. But the four is considered in Japan a symbol of death, despite the fact that it is even.
If you are giving a large bouquet or floral arrangement, add a wish card to it.
There is no such cipher in Russia, so when composing a bouquet, you should think about how it will look. Undoubtedly, a Russian person needs to be given an odd amount, first of all thinking about the meaning of flowers, not numbers. You have to understand that a huge "broom" of several dozen flowers does not look as good as it is commonly thought. Yes, it indicates that you do not regret the money for such a sign of attention, but it hardly speaks about your taste. In such a situation, it is better to buy a basket of flowers, correctly assembled by a florist.
Sometimes you should limit yourself to one flower, and sometimes not
However, sometimes a single scarlet rose speaks of feelings louder than a whole basket of flowers. Especially if you present it correctly. One rose, decorated with a velvet ribbon, can very clearly convey the message of your love to your chosen one.
Three or five flowers have already become a kind of classics. It is not necessary to add greens to such bouquets, it is even better to avoid wrappers, as they greatly reduce the cost of the appearance of the bouquet. To give "shine" to this number of colors, use tape or the simplest, non-shiny wrapper.
Never forget about the "color code". Of course, red roses are versatile. Still, it is better for the boss or teacher to give something more neutral.
Bouquets of seven or more flowers already require a good design, since they are not fastened by anything, they tend to "crumble" inaccurately in a vase.
Well, bouquets of fifteen flowers can already be attributed, unfortunately, to meaningless "brooms". As mentioned above, it is better to order an exquisite floral arrangement instead.
