The Flower Language of Gladiolus

Flower language 1: Miss

Beautiful flowers will remind people of the past. Behind the rich colors may be beautiful memories, or it may be a gray sky, but no matter what, seeing gladiolus will remind people of the past.

Flower language 2: tryst, attentive

The flowers of gladiolus are relatively delicate in appearance, blooming quietly on the stems, as if protected by thick stems, which often reminds people of a girl with her coat collar turned up to half cover her face. Therefore, many people tie it into bouquets and give them to each other as a secret signal for a tryst.

Although trysts can heat up a relationship, you should not lose your cool. Therefore, another flower language of gladiolus is "care"!

Flower language three: fortune, wealth, rising step by step, firmness

The Chinese believe that gladiolus leaves resemble long swords, like the sword worn by Zhong Kui, which can ward off evil and avoid evil spirits. It is one of the indispensable flower arrangements during festivals. In addition, its flowers open gradually from bottom to top, symbolizing continuous advancement, so it is widely used in blessing bouquets and flower baskets.

According to legend, in the European and American folk culture, gladiolus is the incarnation of the warrior's dragon-slaying sword and can protect the home. Therefore, Europeans often plant gladiolus around their homes.
