Chamomile
It is a wild flower and the beauty of a chamomile is in its wildness. Today people grow chamomiles at home in their gardens and they don’t realize that with this action they deprive chamomiles of the most precious feature. It is the wild flower and it is flower created by nature to grow on wild somewhere in the field where people can’t find it and tear it away of the ground. It is a wild and rather ancient flower and it was common for ancient Greeks and ancient Egyptians. It is interesting to know that chamomile was a sacred flower for ancient Egyptians and it was the flower of god of sun Rah. It was a symbol of sun and a symbol of god. Indeed, chamomile is alike the sun. And it was also a medicine for ancient Egyptians. They were making chamomile tea and with this teal healed those people who were running high temperature. It was not the only way for ancient people to use this plant. A lot of medicines were made of chamomile of with it. And chamomile is also a common component for modern medicine. There are such creams formula of which is based on extract of chamomile.
Character of rose
It is rose the most common flower to give and it is also rose the most common flower to adore. Most women are crazy about roses and most men never think much when they buy flowers and they know for sure that a bunch of roses is a good choice. It is another stereotype common for this world and this society. Though, let’s not judge people for their likes and dislikes and think about the thing that makes a rose such a special flower. It is the character of rose. The character of rose is just like the character of a woman it is beautiful but you have to be careful with this beauty. It is the beauty that grasps with the mystery and it is the most fragile beauty. One wrong step or move and you can spoil everything and rose leaves will fall down and die. And you should also be careful with this tender beauty because another wrong step or move may be extremely dangerous for you. There are thorns and those are sharp enough to hurt you and make you bleeding. That is the special thing of rose and I guess it is the thing that makes it so popular and adorable.

Giving Flowers as a Gift
Flowers can really make wonderful gifts, and are suitable for many occasions. If you’ve been invited over to someone’s house for a meal or celebration, flowers are the perfect thing to bring along for the hostess. They also make good gifts for different holidays such as Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, or birthdays. Flowers are often a good idea for those who don’t know what to give, as they can be quite versatile and please many people. They are pleasing both to the eye and to the nose, and can be a special treat for a loved one or a backup gift for someone you don’t know too well.
Selecting the right flowers for a gift can be difficult. Sometimes, they all look beautiful. Other times, nothing is quite right. For family and friends, you can base your decision on their personal tastes. Some may love roses, while others are keener on wildflowers. Often, a bouquet from your garden may be lovelier than what is available for sale. Choosing flowers by a person’s favorite colors might work as well. Tulips and lilies are often popular choices.
Some people choose to give potted plants as gifts rather than cut flowers. These have the advantage of being longer-lasting and contributing more permanently to a household. Houseplants can be wonderful for brightening up a room and pump fresh oxygen into it as well. For many occasions, it’s hard to go wrong with a standard bouquet from a florist. They can even advise you on the meaning of different flowers, so you don’t end up accidentally sending the wrong message.

Flowers And Gifts
There are many ways to pay homage to those who have passed before us, and there seem to be the basic option between flowers and small stones for the grave stones. Many people are often curious about why people of the Jewish faith leave small stones on the grave stones rather than the customary flowers that Christians and even non-believers leave behind. It seems to many goy individuals that this is a very curious custom considering the fragrance of flowers and their beauty, while short lived, is grander than that of a small stone.
Flowers are of a different tradition. Stones are left on Jewish grave sites for a great many reasons, including the permanency of the stone. The flowers will eventually die but a stone will last forever. The stones also symbolize that someone has been to the grave site to visit. This tradition was most likely developed from the early Jewish tradition when each mourner left a stone to create a mound over the body after burial. Flowers appealed to the Christians because of their color while stones remained the Jewish custom based on Talmud stories and tradition. Flowers will eventually die, but there is something beautiful about the flowers that line a grave yard. Stones are the permanent reminder for the Jewish people that their loved one was visited. For those without faith, does it really matter whether a loved one’s grave site is visited with flowers or stones? Doesn’t it matter more that someone came to visit the dead with love?

Flowers
It is difficult to imagine our life without flowers. People decorate their homes with flowers, give them as a gift or buy flowers for themselves for pleasure. Flowers are presented for some occasion or without any as they make our life more bright and enjoyable.
In ancient times people could easily communicate with the language of flowers as they have always been the symbols of people’s feelings and thoughts. But the language of flowers is not as easy as it may seem. The meanings of the same flowers could be different or even contradictious in different countries. For example, the Englishmen present forget-me-nots to show their devotion and love affection when in France the same flower of white colour is not used as a present at all as it is a symbol of death. The Frenchmen adore lilies. There are three lilies on the French insignia symbolizing solace, justice and compassion. Lily as a present is considered to show the deepest respect in this country. There is a legend in Germany that this flower has a tendency to grow under the influence of some unknown power on the tombs of those people who died of violence or commited suicide.
There is no doubt that the queen of all flowers has always been the rose. It is a symbol of love and passion. The birthplace of the rose is believed to be in Percia where innumerable sorts of this flower still grow nowadays.
