The lily is a flower that stands out for its elegant fragrance and unique texture, capable of filling any space with a presence that invites calm, reflection, and connection with the essential. According to Jacky Vázquez, floral director of Blanc Florería, lilies, with their stylized shape resembling a trumpet opening to new possibilities, have transcended over time, carrying with them various cultural meanings.
In ancient Rome, lilies were associated with femininity, while in the Victorian era, they symbolized an expression of deep love. Each color of the lilies has a distinct meaning that connects us with specific emotions and vibrations: red lilies represent love and unity, white symbolizes purity, peace, and beauty, yellow signifies joy, abundance, and prosperity, orange conveys energy, creativity, and adaptability, and purple represents transformation, success, and achieved goals.
To keep lilies fresh longer, it is recommended to change the water in the vase every two days. This majestic flower is considered a symbol of new beginnings and has been venerated throughout history in different cultures for its elegance and purity. In decoration, it is suggested to combine lilies of different colors to achieve a modern and minimalist aesthetic or a more lush look that serves as the focal point in the room.
Lilies have been related to a strong symbolism of transformation and rebirth throughout the centuries and up to our days. In all cultures, flowers are recognized as bearers of positive messages and expressions of good wishes. It is important to keep lilies in a cool place away from direct sunlight to preserve their freshness and beauty.
Every January, when a new year begins in the Gregorian calendar and the Chinese New Year is celebrated, we find ourselves in a moment of reflection and renewal. The year starts surrounded by the positive energies that flowers like lilies can bring, and choose a special bouquet to accompany your first steps in this new cycle.
