Celosia

Even though celosia is mainly known as a garden and houseplant, the flowers can also be used in bouquets or floral arrangements. The celosia is diverse in its shapes and flowers, but the colors are always dazzling. Especially the Celosia Dara attracts attention with its compact yet full shape. The flowers have an extraordinary pattern, a velvety look and feel, and a long vase life. Available in various exotic colors from April to October, this flower is a real eye-catcher on its own as well as when combined with other flowers. The origin of celosia is subtropical; it grows in tropical parts of Africa, Asia, Indonesia, and South America. It is thus no surprise this is a summer flower. The name 'celosia' is derived from the Greek word ‘keleos’ which translated to ‘burning’ and refers to the flame form of the primordial celosia. Not only the name but also the symbolism of this flower is extra special. In general, flowers resemble love, trust, hope, and similar attributes. The celosia, on the other hand, symbolizes boldness which matches its outstanding shape. So, if you want to give someone courage or a bold and beautiful bouquet, celosia makes an excellent gift.
