Flowers Collection

Flowers and plants have become a part of every culture in the world. The role that flowers now play in beautifying our homes and gardens dates back to the earliest of civilizations throughout our history. There is no clear record on when flowers were grown strictly for arrangements, but it was likely when the first agrarian societies developed, well before formal recorded history. The first formal recognition of floral design and arrangements was recorded by the Ancient Egyptians that selected specific flowers during burial ceremonies and for their relationship to specific deities and Gods. Other cultures continued this practice with flowers as well as foliage and herbs used to ward off evil and to provide protection.
