Symbolic meanings: Many flowers have important symbolic meanings in Western culture. The practice of assigning meanings to flowers is known as floriography.
Sun protection:North African natives chewed the root of the plant from which the Queen Anne's Lace flower comes from to protect themselves from the sun because it stimulates pigment production in human beings. Finding a florist in your area: Relying on word of mouth is often the best way to find a florist. Keep an eye on the flowers at weddings and parties you attend, or the flowers in arrangements delivered to your friends and co-workers. If you like the flowers and design style, inquire as to which florist they came from.
