Category: Color symbolism RED

The color red is not only one of the most common flower colors that can be found in the wild, but is also one of the most widely sold varieties of cut and potted flowers in modern floristry. This should primarily be due to the bright and radiant effect that red flowers bring with them and thus produce a particularly striking color contrast to the surrounding green of leaves and stems, which is the so-called complementary color to red. Regardless of this aesthetic criteria, the color red has for many centuries been for love or life in general, whereby this symbolism is based on the color of the human heart and blood. This symbolic meaning is also attributed to many flowers with red petals, although there are still slight variations in the expressiveness, depending on the type and genus of flowers, which should be considered when buying these plants or handing them over as a gift. But red is also the color of aggression, power, struggle and anger. Accordingly, it was until the 1920s as a typical "male color", before it was replaced by the now familiar blue. In China, red is the color of the brides, as it is considered lucky and evil spirits distributes. In Russian, the adjective "red" even has a second meaning: it means here as much as "beautiful" and marks something particularly valuable and expensive – both literally and figuratively.
