A rare colour amongst naturally occurring flowers, "blue" flower varieties are typically a shade of purple, with the exception perhaps of flowers such as the blue delphinium. Perhaps quite fittingly, blue flowers are said to signify a sense of impossibility; a sense of flower fantasy.

Green flowers are often blooms as opposed to flowers - chrysanthemum blooms for example. That said, green carnation flowers and roses are a popular, trendy addition to floristry. An ideal compliment to almost every other flower colour, green flowers can perfectly balance a bouquet.

Said to express desire and passion, orange flowers - especially orange roses - can also be used to express admiration or respect. A popular seasonal flower choice, orange flowers can be perfectly and beautifully twinned with the sense of friendship expressed by yellow flowers.

Pink flowers have long represented a sense of admiration, the perfect floral partner for the feelings of reverence displayed through white flowers. Pink flowers are also believed to be a symbol of elegance and refinement; a perfect flower choice to celebrate the birth of a baby girl.

Purple, blue and lilac flowers are a popular choice, believed to echo feelings of respect. This is a perfect sentiment for times of sadness, and as such, floral funeral tributes and sympathy flowers often express respect through the use of enchanting blue or purple shades of flower.

Red flowers are the epitome of romance, love and passion. Red roses in particular are perhaps the flower best associated with love - the true Valentine's flower. Red flowers, particularly red roses, are also said to be an expression of respect, admiration and beauty.

White flowers are known for feelings of love and, in contrast to red flowers and roses, true love. White flowers are also said to be a sign of reverence, therefore such flowers can be perfectly and beautifully combined with the sense of admiration said to be echoed by pink flowers.

Perhaps most popular for anniversaries, yellow flowers and roses are a popular flower symbol of friendship and respect. A bright, cheerful colour, yellow flowers are also ideal "get well soon" gifts and are a perfect alternative to blue or pink flowers when celebrating a new arrival.
