#1 Rose – Love, passion, beauty

 As expected, roses, which have the largest number of varieties and are synonymous with "love" and are the world's favorite, took first place. Roses are called Aphrodite's flowers in ancient Greek mythology, and Aphrodite is famous as the goddess of love and beauty. Additionally, in Christianity, roses symbolize the precious blood shed on the cross of Jesus Christ, and also represent love and sacrifice. As such, roses have great meaning in Western culture, and roses are flowers loved for many different meanings, such as the "Rose Line" that appears in the novel The Da Vinci Code, the Order of the Rose, and prestigious European families with roses as their emblems.

#2  Tulip - confession of love, prudence

 Tulips are a flower that originated in the Netherlands in the 16th century, and had great value at the time. In particular, red tulips have been called the flower that symbolizes true love. It gained considerable popularity after its release, and the tulip was so popular that it became a symbol of the Netherlands. Meanwhile, in the Netherlands in the 17th century, tulips caused a severe economic crisis. At that time, the price of tulips soared, so many people bought tulips, and through this, distributing tulips became a thing that made them rich. However, this situation quickly collapsed, and tulip prices plummeted. This is called the tulip bubble. Since then, in the Netherlands, tulips have been considered a symbol of sin or foolishness. However, later, as tulips were recognized again as a flower related to love, the flower language of "confession of love" and "discretion" were created to recall the tulip bubble.

#3 Mist flower – unknown love

 The 3rd most popular flower language loved by people all over the world is gypsophila, and its original name is Sukgeun gypsum. Gypsophila is a flower that commonly grows in wet lands, wetlands, and riversides. It is famous for the beautiful glow it gives off as fine water droplets form on its petals and stems. The flower language of gypsophila, “unknown love,” means a desire for a loved one or an unknown love. Wetlands and riversides where gypsum flowers grow are widely distributed in the cold northern hemisphere, and it is believed that gypsum flowers growing in such natural environments are linked to unknown love.

 

 This gypsum plant, which grew in the morning fog on the cold earth, may be a hopeful look at the love between two people whose future is unknown. According to another legendary story, the gypsum plant is a flower that blooms where the spirit of the mountain appears. It is said to have a seductive charm. There are also stories that say that if you fall in love with this charm, you will wander around looking for the other person, or you will never be able to find love. However, it is generally said that the flower language of Gypsophila means “unknown love,” as a symbol of hope that love can be found when the fog clears, like a fog with a faint light shining even in these unknown situations.

#4 Daffodil Iris - wisdom, confidence, beauty

 Daffodils ranked 4th in the world's favorite flower language. This flower is commonly called daffodil in Korea, but these days it is better known by the name Iris after the K-drama Iris appeared. The name Iris comes from the name of Iris, the son of Violay in Greek mythology. According to Greek mythology, Iris is the goddess who connects heaven and earth, serves as the bridge of the rainbow, and serves as a messenger between gods and humans. In this way, Iris was recognized as a wise and courageous being, and this image became the language of the flower.

 

 Additionally, the petals of the iris are curved and have clear lines, making them look beautiful to the eye. Because of its beauty and elegance, iris is also recognized as a flower that symbolizes beauty in flower language.

 

 Lastly, iris inflorescences were often used in noble ceremonies for women in Europe because iris was also recognized as a flower symbolizing confidence. With this background, iris is said to symbolize wisdom, confidence, and beauty in the language of flowers.
