Hydrangeas
The hydrangea finds its origins thanks to Philibert Commerson, a traveling naturalist who traveled the world alongside Bougainville. In Madagascar and Bourbon Island Commerson discovers a flower he calls "Hydrangea", derived from the Latin word "hortus" meaning garden.
The hydrangea never ceases to capture the imagination, and fictionalized versions have attributed its name to noble figures or fellow travelers. Whatever the exact origin of its name, the hydrangea remains a symbol of beauty and abundance. Its generous and rounded flowers evoke abundance and offer a palette of colors that symbolize love, harmony and peace.
The hydrangea is a versatile flower that finds its place in many contexts. It is often used in flower arrangements for weddings and anniversaries, but it is also suitable for memorial bouquets. Its generous appearance and vibrant colors make it a popular choice for expressing gratitude and beauty.
Today, the hydrangea continues to enchant gardening enthusiasts and flower enthusiasts. This emblematic flower has survived the centuries and has found its place in our gardens and our hearts, reminding us of the importance of nature and the floral diversity that surrounds us.
