Wow, this is a lovely game Criss, great job,thank-you............ We take God's creation so much for granted and I think its great to slow down and look at what our Heavenly Father has created for us and give thanks to Him for it too. Anyways B We have a lot of Bluebells here in the UK especially in our local forests. Sorry, my knowledge on any flowers meanings is not up to scratch lol.......  Bluebells have long been symbolic of humility and gratitude. They are associated with constancy, gratitude and convention. Next then is C (Guest fill free to join in has no membership is needed...........) |

Carnation
symbolizes pride and beauty. A red carnation symbolizes love, pride and admiration; a pink carnation symbolizes the love of a woman or a mother; a purple carnation symbolizes capriciousness; a yellow carnation symbolizes disdain, rejection or disappointment; while a white carnation symbolizes innocence and pure love. A striped carnation conveys refusal.

A striped carnation conveys refusal. D I was just reflecting on what Criss has written there about these Carnations because I do buy them for my wife Sharon, especially the red ones.......... But do you know that our God gives you Red carnations every day of your life because of His love for you. For God so loved the world that He sent is one and only Son Jesus that who so ever believes in Him shall not perish but have ever lasting life in heaven one day because Jesus paid the price for our sins; we simply just need to accept this gift by believing Jesus for what he did and accepting there is no other way to God but through Jesus. Sadly though many will through the yellow and stripped ones back at God............ What caranations are you holding today? Anyways Daisies............. |

Jasmine...a very special one this Les...
Meaning
Since jasmine has been cultivated all over the world for its flowers and scent, there are different varieties, and each type of jasmine is associated with different meanings.
Because of its attractive scent, the white, or Indian, jasmine symbolizes attachment and sensuality. The white flower of jasmine can also represent amiability and modesty. Yellow jasmine is associated with grace and elegance, while the variety known as Spanish jasmine also represents sensuality.
In India, jasmine flowers are given as religious offerings as a symbol of divine hope, and the flowers are sometimes used in religious ceremonies.
Uses
The most obvious use for jasmine is for its scent, whether in landscapes and gardens or in perfumes. Women of various southeast Asian cultures use the flowers in their hair for their beautiful fragrance. In China, jasmine has been used for tea for centuries, and some cultures believe drinking jasmine tea daily can prevent diseases such as cancer. In aromatherapy, jasmine is thought to be an antidepressant and to promote relaxation while helping with fatigue and tension. The scent is often used in incenses and massage oils, and some cultures believe when jasmine is burned or worn, it will attract spiritual love, wealth, money and prophetic dreams.
The scent of the jasmine flower is most potent at night, when it releases its scent into the cooler night air.
