Writer's picture: SincerelyYours GiftregistrySincerelyYours Giftregistry

The act of giving flowers is one of the most cherished traditions worldwide. Whether it’s to say “I love you,” “I’m sorry,” or “You dey enter my eye🥹” .

Flowers have always carried deep meanings and emotions .


The Roots of Flower Giving

Giving flowers is not a new concept . In ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, flowers were basically the original emojis.

People used them to worship gods, celebrate, and even send secret messages. The Greeks, in particular, were big on this, handing out floral garlands like party souvenirs.


Fast forward to the Victorian era, and people really took flower-giving to the next level. They even had “floriography” books—guides to the meanings of flowers.

Imagine trying to woo your crush by secretly sending them a red rose to mean “I love you” or a yellow one to say “I’m just here for vibes.” Victorian folks basically invented the first subtweets.

Think about a typical Nigerian traditional weddings set in the 60s—fresh floral decorations are usually evident in the lavish venue decor. And let’s not even start on those wedding photographers who insist on flower backgrounds for every single shot!🥹


These days, giving and receiving flowers has become even more popular in Nigeria.

From birthdays, anniversaries, makeup between lovers —there’s always a reason to send flowers.
