Meaning of Flowers

The meaning of flowers has long tickled the fancy of man ever since man (and woman) knew they had parts perfectly acceptable to tickling. Ever since Dogwood Bumstead decided to grace the funny pages or Rosie O to grace The Donald's ire, the meaning of flower names has flourished within the media.

But the meaning of flowers is not confined to the visual, oh reader, no! The meaning of flowers and their eloquent botanical yet diabolical names transcends time, place, space and the temporal functions of our brains and posterior cavities.

So, sit back on your posterior for a while and partake of the top flower name meanings presented with humor on this page. I dare say, you may even go so far as to enjoy yourself just a tad.

There you have it, the meaning of flowers defined from A to Z. The names of these flowers and their meanings have been satirized and parodied to the point where there is no point and where the flowers themselves are unrecognizable. Then again, using the list above, sending flowers for Mother's Day will probably make Mom blush, so there.

For the further meaning of flowers and their etymological and biological names, read the dictionary or at least a rhyming thesaurus. Remember, botany can kill you. Don't eat the daisies and know all mushroom derivatives before you put them into your mouth. That is all.
