→ Human beings have had an intimate relationship with flowers since time immemorial.
→ Flowers are objects of aesthetic, ornamental, social, religious and cultural value.
→ They have always been used as symbols for conveying important human feelings such as love, affection, happiness, grief, mourning, etc.
→ In addition to that, the myriads of flowers that we enjoy gazing at, the scents and the perfumes that we swoon over, the rich colours that attract us, are all there as an aid to sexual reproduction.
