Your Month's Flower and Its Meaning

Today is March 1, but I am already thinking of June 1. The date is the estimated date of my downsizing move from my 4 BR,2.5 B (2177 sq. ft ) single residence and living alone to a smaller 2BR, 2 B townhouse/condo with all the Club Amenities ( social, physical, educational  etc...) with Dinah my oldest daughter and hopefully Batman & Robin.  I plan on hiring all professionals to assist me in this move, starting with selling my house, furniture and throwing all junk and accumulations to the Dump.  Wish me Luck! Today blog is about Flowers.   

The Latest Rose from My Garden-August 17, 2022

Rose is the flower of people born in the month of June. Do you know the color of this rose? Fuchsia or magenta?

I thought that my flower is poinsettia being born in the Month of December. I was wrong according to this article:   https://www.ftd.com/blog/celebrate/birth-flowers-what-they-say-about-you  But I am correct in the second article at bottom of the page.

Do you know your birth month flower and its meaning? If you do I salute you!

1. Long before email, texting, instant messages or even phone calls, people used flowers to communicate. The language of flowers — also known as floriography — was popular in the 18th and 19th century. While we now have more ways to communicate, the messages told with flowers are as meaningful today as ever. Each birth month flower has a unique meaning, and is sure to make the recipient feel extra special.
