Calla Lily

History relates that during the reign of Queen Victoria, in England, which lasted from 1837 to 1901, the language of flowers was as important to people as being "well dressed." For example, the recognizable scent of a particular flower, plant or perhaps a scented handkerchief sent its own unique message.

Flowers would convey messages of love or dislike depending upon which ones were given, their sizes how they were held, or also grouped together. They had a silent meaning of their very own, and could "say" what was not dared to be spoken. Even the manner in which flowers were sent had a special meaning. A flower presented in an upright position represented a "positive thought; whereas one presented in the opposite direction had a negative meaning. Too, a person could say "yes" by offering a flower with the right hand - the left hand "no."

The "LILY," generally symbolized beauty, but it also has many varieties, thus many diversified meanings. Consider the quandary that could have developed if lover’s used two "different" dictionaries--- with each possibly having its own connotation. There could, potentially, be some real misunderstandings! So, we see the importance of acquiring accurate information in this regard.

So, I present to you, ladies and gentlemen for you viewing pleasure, the Calla Lilly, who represents Feminine Beauty. Hopefully, my humble deviation has done this beautiful bloom justice.

Wanted to dedicate this to my wonderful watchers. You've all been wonderful to me in different ways, I appreciate you welcoming me to DA with open arms. So, here's to you.
