Dahlias are associated with many meanings & symbols, such as wealth, love, elegance & involvement. Even as far back as the Aztecs who saw them as a symbol of devotion, & the Victorians for whom they were symbolic of a lasting bond between two people.
Today, they represent grace, generosity & kindness to others 🧡
They are from Balmoral. I assume they have been done by the Royal garden staff as many pieces are. They are swapped out daily when the candles are changed. I kept track of the original blooms and their meaning.
Dahlia-beauty, commitment, kindness
Sweet peas-blissful pleasure, goodbye
Phlox-harmony, heart and soul, sweet dreams
White Heather-the highland equivalent of a four leaf clover
Pine fir-endurance, farewell
I think the messages are very clear.
