2. AMARYLLIS - Amarilis: Pride, beauty.Legend has it that the amaryllis - the stunning red
flower we've come to associate with the holidays - began as a shy, timid nymph. Amaryllis
fell deeply in love with Alteo, a shepherd with Hercules' strength and Apollo's beauty, but her
affections were unrequited. Hoping that she could win him over by bestowing upon him the
thing he desired most - a flower so unique it had never existed in the world before - Amaryllis
sought advice from the oracle of Delphi.
Following his instructions, Amaryllis dressed in maiden's white and appeared at Alteo's door
for 30 nights, each time piercing her heart with a golden arrow. When at last Alteo opened
his door, there before him was a striking crimson flower, sprung from the blood of Amaryllis's
heart. With this romantic - albeit tragic - tale as its beginning, it's not surprising that today the

deep blue petals of an iris or the light blue lace of hydrangea, the wildflower beauty of blue
star anemone and commelina or the dramatic arch of blue delphinium, blue flowers offer a
cooling antidote to our over-stimulated lives and anxious days.
A color that is known to hold universal appeal, blue plays a significant role in many cultures
religious rituals and ceremonies. Its said that the Western tradition of a bride wearing
something blue is tied to the colors symbolism of faithfulness and loyalty. In its dark, regal
tones, blue can express trustworthiness, confidence, intelligence and unity, which explains
why its frequently the color of police uniforms, why the blue power suit is an icon of the
business world and why winners of competitions receive blue ribbons. And yet, in its softer
hues, blue can embody the uplifting spirit of a sunny sky or soothing ocean perhaps
explaining why so many of us choose blue flowers when we want to send a message of
calming beauty, tranquility and peace.
